FluffyDove Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Hi,I'm new in SL and I want to ask a question. I have this skin that comes up with variations, each is marked with different letters or combination of letters such as "skin base (Dk)" or "skin base (Lt)" or "skin base (Lt/C/F)" and so on. What's actually the meaning of the letters "Dk," "Lt," "C" and "F"?Thanks,Tara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvia Tamalyn Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 My guess is that they mean: Dark, Light, Cleavage, and Freckles. Probably the easiest way to know for sure is to try them on and see what the differences are. :smileyhappy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffyDove Posted August 17, 2011 Author Share Posted August 17, 2011 Thanks for the answer Sylvia. Well, that's the problem. I've tried them but didn't see much differences between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pussycat Catnap Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Some people's idea of 'dark' is the tone of an Anglo from the UK... Some people's idea of light is the tone of an Ashanti from Nigeria... C could also stand for Caucasian, or Curvy, or Cute, or whatever. F could stand for female. But 'Freckles' could also just be 3 little dots on the tip of the nose you'll only see if you look at it from the left on Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Silverspar Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 dk and lt could be referring to eyebrow colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceka Cianci Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 a lot depends on the creator..but most times it is something added to the skin..like some have hairbase..that will be usually HB CLV is usually for cleavedge..things like that..most times they will have a note card or on the vender add what the skins come with..so you can usually see what they would mean from one of those things..

Pixie Chaffe Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Dk and Lt most probably mean dark and light in regards to eyebrows, Dark brows woud match darker hair colours, whereas light would go with blond. I am guessing means cleavage, some designers put extra shading around that area so you look more or less busty. Here is and example (all 3 skins are worn on the same shape) F most likely means freckles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowan Villiers Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Your best bet is to IM the creator and ask; I've had some where C was cleavage- there were varying degrees of cleavage like an "MC" too- and F meant freckles. Sometimes the abbreviations can refer to whether or not the skin has pubic hair. I've had some confusion over this kind of thing as well; with the obligatory "thanks and no return" nc that seems to come with every purchase nowadays it seems they might could include a key for their own personal shorthand, amirite? ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
