Skin tone is wrong. And is lawyer bait. Not to mention being sick to be a merchant of death profiting off the death of a celeb.
But hey it is Second Life right? Must be A-OK with Linden Lab.

OMG....what else! I guess stuff like that is why I'll never be a finacial success in SL...at least if creating things such as that is what I'de have to do.
As for being OK with the "Lab"..the latest issues with child avies on Zindra seem to have convinced me that the "Lab" takes a hands off policy. {cough cough}

Skin Tone is wrong, Ann: it's not white enough.
And he has gloves on both hands, but that is a limitation of the SL avatar mesh, which uses the same pixels for both arms and hands. (Even though the mesh does recognize that humans have two legs which are not always identically dressed.)
Jackson actually abandoned the single glove for a single carpal tunnel brace at some point, which could be easily represented in SL as a prim attachment to the upper arm. (Even though he reportedly did know how to play a variety of instruments, he never played any of them onstage or on record... so how the heck did he get carpal tunnel? I suppose there are other motions he could been making repeatedly.)
