However there are some cases where you can’t get the badge. If the badge panel is visible, you can just click “Request Badge” and it should tell you “You have received the badge”, mission accomplished. If you have AP, or the page is rated GA, then the IMVU web site should redirect you to the owner’s page.
You can navigate to the owner’s page by id using Go ahead and copy this number to the clipboard. That number is the user ID of the owner of that badge, in this case 46476170. Once the new tab appears, look at the number that comes after “userdata” in the URL. The first trick is to right-click the badge image, and choose “Open image in new tab” (assuming Chrome). When you click it, all it says is “Feisty Leaf”, which is not helpful for locating the origin of this badge. I put a purple circle around it in the diagram. There’s a cute little 20px badge that shows an MJ leaf with a red-orange-yellow background.
So in today’s tutorial, I’m going to show you how to collect a badge that has no link, and as a added bonus, I’ll show you how to grab a badge from someone whose home page no longer exists due to being _disabled or _retired. But you know me, I have a penchant for finding the back entry way. But not always, which makes it seem impossible to collect that badge. Most people use IMVU badges to drive web traffic to their home page or product pages, and usually there will be a hyperlink to direct you there, so you can pick up your badge.
