First of all, avatar is copyrighted. You can't legally make an avatar mod really...

As for how models are made, you'll want to see the Glest Guide.

Finally, your "?" key appears to be sticking. :(

well, all copyrighted material goes under the idea of "as long as your mod is free and it is a TC (or full mod) that has nothing to do with other copyrighted material, then you're fine"

... not necessarily.

My understanding is that it can be considered copyright violation (as some company owns the rights to the ideas you're hypothetically copying), but generally just nobody cares enough to take legal action.  Why can't people just come up with their own ideas? :P

Ugh copyright crap again. Give him a break, they aren't gonna come running and try to take down his mod. If you're inspired by a movie, why aren't you allowed to create something about it?

1 thing i would make sure you do for the fire faction is for the melee warrior make sure he can shoot lightning because in the cartoon it took a lot of experience to do that and only people that were from the fire nation could do it.

also i would put a universal Pearson in all 4 factions an avatar so you can get a taste of the other factions and to make you stronger.

I'd advise against it. The murky waters of copyright law are something best left alone. Besides, how hard can thinking up your own idea be? For exporter help, this page may be of use.
