Some Observations on Compatibility with I Am items (IA):
There seems to be a couple of "classes" of IA's and some items have their unique abilities:
Grunnie-types
Humanoids
Hard Shell Pack
Dust Bunny
Most IA's sort into the first category, and some things within a category may have slight differences. I experiment a lot, but i don't remember well, so there may be some things i miss, but i'm kinda sorting through them as i go. I haven't tested every item on Gaia, just things i own. Clothing poses never work, nor anything that attaches directly to the base, except wings.
CLASS LISTS (partial) What IA's are in each class, and what works with them.
Where i say, "part of..." or "some of..." that means the whole pose doesn't show. The first pose of most items just goes by the item name.
First, the Grunny class, to which most IA's belong, the ones i own of which are:
Enchanted Tome, Mercury, Hermes, Wonderland, Starmony, Longcat, Ara, White Drome, Faustine, Pantheracorax, Fallen Wish, Jinxi, Inari, Gogh, Noel, Sundae Sweets and Strawberry--, Cheepz, Cow, Mona, Siedh, Tutu, Twister, Ace, Boto, Shadowlegend, Nightmare (Buer and Bogey Man only) and even though they look like humanoids, Alruna, Foundling, Kottan, and Ebenezer.
They show a lot more items from behind than facing forward, and most things that work are not "attached" to the base. Almost all wing poses will show from behind, some show from both sides. Some of the IA's in the list will deviate in one or two cases.
Some of the items that work from both sides:
Albus Egg (halo)

Humanoid-type IAs
Humanoid IAs generally equip most of the things that Grunny-types can, with some exceptions and differences in what side shows. In addition, Humanoids can equip almost all humanoid companion items. (like the dr's and nurses in Trick or Treat Tote, or the Alruna/Anurla companions). These usually show from both sides.
Turtle!
Hard Shell Pack defense poses generally equip more completely, that is, where grunny-types and humanoids show only parts of things or from one side, the turtle shows more or even all. With just a few exceptions, HSP will show things that Grunny-types do. Most wing poses, however, do not show on HSP (Spring Nymph is one exception).
Some item poses Grunny-types don't show, but turtles do, are listed here:
Visible from both sides:
some of Autumn Glory
Catastrophe (dreaming of fishies)
Clock Egg (most of Explode)
parts of Divided Stars and (most of crescent canoe)
Fremere's Guard (Falling Fury)
Furugasa (parts of ittanmomen)
Gift of the Gods (part of Cerebrus)
Gothic Veil
Picolitrosso's Urn (parts of both ethereal flames)
part of Pixie
Visible only from the front:
Aerial Ribbon Dancer
Dander (a bit of Dust cloud with goo)
Flame Sword (part of @ss on fire!)
Golden Laurels Sparkle just the sparkles with green goo
Nano-C (drone Mk I, II, III)
Pixie (part of Clips)
Reve Rouille (broken heart)
Voracious Fog (most of Heavy Burden, Brume)
part of Western Zodiac, and (Virgo's Veil)
Visible only from the back:
Furugasa (onibi kohai, kitsunebi kohai)
Pixie (part of Dust Cloak, part of Dust Scarf part of Dust Skirt)
Summoning Tome (most of Dragon of Light and most of Dragon of Dark)
Yama no Tamago (torii, furutorii)
Dust Bunny
Dander (You are dander bunny) can equip more item poses than any other IA. Almost anything that is not normally directly attached to the avatar base will show at least some part when equipped on the dust bunny. Some things show only a little portion, and some only from one side, but if you've gotten some idea of what kind of things equip on IAs, you will find little frustration in trying on various items; a list would be ridiculously long.
Animated Items and Items that Animate when Moving:
The bubble pop and falling leaves animated items will equip on IAs, but only show if enough of the avatar square has other stuff there. For example, just the Grunny isn't enough, but if you add the boughs from Autumn Glory, for example, it'll work.
Items which have animations in flash environments can also be equipped, and even if they don't show on the avatar changing screen or in forums, their animations work in flash environments. They have to be equipped last, so their animation takes precedence. These include:
Chyaku Norisu Scarf and (Unknown Hero)
Sinister Scarf (all poses).
Disappearing Completely:
You can have nothing at all of your base or any IA showing if you combine the Longcat Scarf (tacgnol)
with any of Pantheracorax, Drome, or Dander (and possibly some others i don't know). In order to do it, though, you must have other stuff equipped so that both sides of your avatar have something showing. This can be as little as the Trail of Ants.
