See if this helps. It was copied off of another website by Chad Nicholas the Sciptor...

Wizard or Sorcerer?I'd say a Wizard. You'll need that flexibility. Also, those extra feats are nice.

However, if you plan ahead, a sorcerer can be VERY deadly. Playing a sorcerer means not getting Minor Mirror Image and waiting for Mirror Image. It means not getting a Lesser Planar Binding elemental and waiting for a Planar Binding one. It means not getting Invisibility and waiting for Improved Invisibility. Etc., etc. That said, I'm very happy with my sorcerer. She can cast a LOT of Delayed Blast Fireballs and Chain Lightnings. Of course, she's not the only caster in the party. I've also got a bard to cast those spells that my sorcerer had to skip over.

Lower resistance: The target's Spell Resistance (SR from now on) is effective in resisting Lower Resistance (LR), but at only 50% it's current value. If you don't resist LR, you have your SR reduced by 1 for every 2 caster levels. The duration is 20 rounds.

User selectable avatars: The whole, "user selectable avatar" dealie is still on a programmers, "Implement this" list. It's a question of if there is enough time to do it.
