well, most of the background items are part of the contribution items. So you either have to donate to mene, or buy them in the market. they usually run around 5000 gold. The regular flesh tone skins are under the avatar section, but if you are looking for say blue or green or purple, those are also Contribution items. To earn gold, you just have to post in the forums. lots of people earn gold in the rp section because its easy to make huge posts and frequent posts. if not, then i suggest a more active thread like the RAK thread (random acts of kindness). they also have a tendency there to randomly give ci's away. so you might get lucky there.
I saw your post in the avatar help thread. if you need any help with anything, feel free to ask. or if you wanna just chat about avatars, layering and getting advice on your avatar, feel free to stop by my advice thread! I even do dream avatars for people, which can help you have a definitive goal to work towards.
I'm from mobion.net it shut down. I was known as Jess there. My name is Jessica but a lot of people just call me Jess. i came here to meet old friends and to meet new friends and to create and dress a avatar doll up. Anything else just ask.
