About the "imitation is flattery" thing...
I gave it a moment of thought. I've had folks say I (well, the human me ><; ) look rather unique and they like that. If someone wanted to copy the looks of my character exactly (down to requesting the .dat files), I don't think I'd be pleased at all.

OP, I will suggest getting a similar look that is unique to you. You may enjoy playing the character more than running around as someone else's. ^^;
