Welcome to Gaia! ::

1. Since they changed shops around I'm not sure how you get a trading pass anymore, but I know if you go to the market place there should be something there about getting one. You have to have 500 gold.
2. If you have someone you want to trade with go to your friends list (if they're on there) and click on trade items.
3. On the purple navigation bar go to my gaia, hover over it untill the drop down menue comes up. On their go down to account settings and wait untill another menue comes up, In that click on signature. Make your sig. on that page.
4. WHat do you need help with?
5. An avi is short for avitar. It's your little gaia person you made when you first joined.
