But TekTek, the website we use for agent image creation, has been taken down. Arvee, the other one we use, doesn't seem to work either. Should we try to find new ones?

Then I recommend hero machine. That's what I used last time I needed images of the Cafeteria team - and it's versatile enough to make all three pretty close to their "actual" proportions, not easy given only one of them is human.

... 'official' sites we use for agent images. I was one of the first people to pick up Tektek for the Wiki (not the very first, though), and there's no denying it's become popular, but any dollmaker which shows full-body images, rather than just faces, is perfectly valid to use.
Darned shame, though, and a pain in the neck. Fortunately I don't think I had anything ongoing that used it, but still...

I was under the impression they were working with Gaia. Oh well.
As for new things, Doll Divine has a few good ones, especially for female agents and CAFs. They have some okay stuff for males too, though. I know I used one of their things to make Ecks and Zee what back when, but I lost those images so I should probably redo them at some point. -
Does this thing look like a good replacement? by

I found this thing on an ad from TekTek. Here is the link:

I've only been on since the takedown, so I have no idea what TekTek was able to do, but I hope this thing will work for now. -

It's great for faces and hair, though TekTek still had more options, but it is seriously lacking in the clothing department from what I'm seeing. It is a remarkably similar style though.

Apparently they do have plenty of clothes and items, you just have to earn them. So it's less like TekTek which was basically a doll maker using all of Gaia's items and body types, and more like Gaia itself.

Actually, there is a way to use items you haven't earned yet by

It is a little wonky to access, but if you make an avatar, try to change it. When the menu to do so pops up, scroll all the way down. You should see something that looks like an ad, but it should say "what if I had all the items". If you click on it, you'll be taken to a different menu for customizing. And in this menu, you can make an avatar with all available parts, and it'll let you save it as an image.

It wants me to make an account? No, thank you. by

Besides, if I am going to have my agents get avatars, it will likely be commissioned in some format by an artist, not generated like this.

I'm familiar with dreamself.me and this is just like it, but with more clothes options (selfy simulator and dreamself.me are based off atgames.jp and tinierme.com), here is the full archive of the items: http://ouroboros.xii.jp/selfy/gacha/holic/ -

Tektek's been taken down? by

But... I was on it just earlier today...
I knew Arvee's been down for at least a few months, but I can't check on TekTek since I'm using my phone. Plus it's kid of a big thing for Gaia Online, isn't it? Maybe it's just down for maintenance? -
I think i was on it at an earlier point by

And I think it said something about getting a cease and desist from Gaia Online. I think its gone for good.

It's true. The site seems pretty dead. Here's the information, courtesy of Google Cache:
