Doing what you like to do will also be more profitable than other things, all else being equal, because you'll be more motivated to put in the time and effort to keep your skills sharp and do a good job on the little details. Whether that means creative use of mesh for furnishings, or scripting new items, or drawing your own clothing textures, or whatever. If there's a poorly filled niche you could possibly capture that market; you'd be working with a smaller market, of course, but you'd have fewer competitors than if you went for something that 100 other sellers are already doing and doing well. What would you want to buy, but have trouble finding?

I'm almost done with a script to create a small garden, but the last part is tripping me up. I need to give a small number of copies of a carrot to the avatar clicking on the prim. Not so hard, but I also want these copies to be no-copy and no-modify, and to store their own variables. I guess I could store the variables in the Description box, but that doesn't solve the problem of how to make my script take a prim (either in its inventory or a linked prim inside) and give a few no-mod, no-copy copies to the avatar with slightly different descriptions and names. I think this is possible, since I've seen similar items work, but those scripts are no-mod so I can't see how it was done, and I'm at a loss for how to make this happen.
