Is my client-side avatar rendered different from other people?

Question Title: Is my client-side avatar rendered different from other people?
Category: Graphics
Question: It seems that my character is "uglier" than other people when wearing certain pieces of clothing/armor. My character seems to have a fat belly when wearing an Aerlinthe t-shirt, but other girls look fine. I think kabutons look ugly on me, but great on other people. Is there a difference in how other characters are rendered compared to me, or is my character just ugly and fat? =P

Answer: The only difference between your character and the other characters is that your character is always drawn without level of detail; IE: He/She is the maximum number of polygons a character can be drawn with.
