In SecondLife, heads and bodies typically come with their own shapes, which look great! Except.. your head shape doesn't work with your body, and your body shape doesn't work with your head!
Rather than spend ages trying to fix one or the other, combine the two shapes in Dr Frank and make the perfect custom shape for your combination of body and head.
Included is instructions to export your shape and a download link for Dr Frank.
Note - Dr Frank is a Windows Program. It may run on other OS's with emulation software such as WINE but we cannot provide support for this.

Been using this for a while now
$10L and has saved me countless hours. It's a great tool if you have a head shape you really like and want to mess around with different bodies and body shapes, or vice versa.
Be Aware: I did find a bug. After your shapes are combined, you will find that your knee angle is set to 0 even if you didn't change it. This can make your legs and lower half look deformed if you don't fix it. I haven't noticed any other settings with the same problem yet.
The idea is nice...
I like the idea of this tool, but it is flagged as not safe after download by Norton Anti Virus. So I have not installed it yet. So i can not say how it works. Four Stars for the idea and the low price.
Does what it says on the tin!
So my first major concern was with it being a trojan or the like, for 10 linden, I figured I would gamble on it to see exactly how it was presented etc and much to my surprise, it is provided as OpenSource so you can go through the code yourself (and I did). If you take the time to look through the code, you will see two things, 1. It contains only code to combine the shapes as stated and 2. Extrude Ragu doesn't rename elements xD
If you are looking for a way to combine a head shape with a body shape, this is the tool for you!
If your Anti-virus is flagging it as a virus, something has gone wrong with the download, delete (if it finished downloading) and try again, if it flags it again, contact the creator.
I feel this is worth far more than the 10 linden that is being asked for it so if you get more than your 10L$ worth out of it, you should give them a tip in world ^^
Brilliant!
What a great idea. I love seeing creators making helpful tools like this one that change our experience :)
