If I had my old account I'd be able to model for you but... I don't and had to start over with a new account and it don't have mesh body or nothing :( maybe once I get bak and on my sl feet again I can Im u to see if u need more models or not, because I'd love to become a model :D and I wouldn't mind if you posted them as well! Because I'd probably one as a profile picture or something :D..

I sent in the application, there are addition pictures of me here in the vanity thread as well as the what does you avatar look like today thread.

@MayaSkyrose I understand, and best of luck recreating your avatar.  Mesh body is not always required, just highly preferred. Feel free to submit an application if you are still interested!

@Talligurl Thanks for applying but I've dismissed your application.  Thanks for your time.

@Seanabrady Thank you for applying!  Everything was filled out correctly.  =)

 

To everyone else, please fill out the application and add a link to your avatar image.  They are sorted directly into a spreadsheet so filling in the picture link with 'look up my flickr name 'yourname' is not what I'm looking for.   Looking for pictures of the outfit/avatar you had in mind.  Thank you everyone for your time!

 

*edit*

And please use SLT when putting in your times.  =)  Much appreciated!

@Talligurl Looks like all the information I asked for was present, other than using non-SLT when putting in your availability.  That in itself was not the reason.  I really do thank you for your time though, and appreciate your interest in working with me.  I know applications, even when short can feel quite tedious.  Best of luck in your second life!

yeah well it might be nice if you gave some clue as to what you were looking for before people get their hopes up just to have you dash them to ***** with your dismissal. You can just keep your stupid luck.

@Talligurl I'm looking for any type of avatar, really.  Nothing specific.  Humans, horses, furries, everything in between of either or no gender.  I did try to make that part atleast known in my original post.  So to say I need to give clues to what I'm looking for.. I'm not entirely should I could.  I just know I prefer to not work with avatars dressed in all black. I don't think I intentionally got anyones hopes up, but I am certainly sorry if I did.  I was just trying to hire some models.

Perhaps you are right though, that not having a very specific idea in mind will lead to hurt feelings and getting people's hopes up unintentionally.  If you ever want to know the reason your application was dismissed, you may contact me privately.  I do not think the forums is the correct medium to discuss it.

 

To everyone else, this thread is now closed.  I have decided to end my model search and not pursue this further.  I apologize to anyone who applied for the job, and thank them for their time, but in order to be decent and fair to everyone, I will NOT be hiring anyone.

Take care all!

I already responded to all this, but it looks like your post has changed, or deleted and you posted again.  And mine was also removed, so pardon me if I sound repetitive.

To answer your question directly, yes, because of one person who made me feel guilty for trying to hire models, I canceled the entire thing.  You made a valid arguement, that my application was unclear, and has lead to people having their feelings hurt.  I agree with you on it.  I respect your opinion and also now share that same one.  I honestly would never want to hurt anyone, and I am trying to be respectful of that by completely dropping the positions.  I sincerely feel bad for it, and I'm not going to continue on with it because it's causing other people bad feelings, and in response, also making me feel bad.

To me, this says you should be styled, dressed, show me something other than wearing black.  If this mislead you into thinking I was looking for a random picture, then I do apologize.

This to me, says if you I don't like what you wore, or wanted you to change it up a bit, I will request as much.  I do completely understand that you feel mislead, misinformed and that I got your hopes up just to have you dash them to *****.  I am very sorry I have offended you and made you appear ignorant of what I was looking for.  It's fine that you did not understand what I was asking for, because as you said it's all my fault for not explaining everything better.

Either way, your application was not dismissed because you of the picture to selected to submit.  It had zero impact on my decision.  As I said before, you are completely welcome to contact me privately, should you want to know why, because I don't feel the forums are appropriate for that discussion.

And once again, I really am sorry, and feel regret over this thread.  I was advised to seek out a Modeling Agency, which is where I should have started to begin with, to avoid situations like this.

Just wanted to comment for future advertisements or for others looking for models. 

 

"Must be willing to change clothing or add accessories if needed.

As someone who used to model, to ME this said that you might have things you want folks to wear in your shots. This isn't unusual at all  -- especially if it is a vendor photo shoot.  But I didn't think it was all that clear that you wanted folks to get "dolled up" (or in blogger lingo "styled") and that they styling in "anything but black" was part of the process for choosing -- which now sounds like it is.

Also, in the future it would likely be better to "advertise" for models on Flickr which there is a HUGE group of folks that do this stuff everyday :D

Yes, I made a terribly unclear advertisement.  Thank you for pointing that out to me again.  Talligurl is very much correct, and I have learned a lesson that I should be 100% sure of what I am looking for and what I want in the first post, rather than misfocusing my attention to other details, then trying to add more information later on in another post.  I should have been more clear and precise, rather than expecting people to know what I was thinking.

I feel very bad, and all I can say is it made sense to me.  But I do understand how it did not make sense to others.  Appreicate your input, Chic Aeon.

 

@broadbritney  Thank you for the support, and I appreciate you considering still working with me after this terrible mistake.  I feel like I was just trying to keep things open ended and focusing more on the other details, like no nudity, no violence.  I could always make my own avatars and such, as people have suggested privately to me, but I tend to stick to my own styles and I was looking forward to branching out into more creative avatars.  I'm so embarrassed now. Haha.  Thank you again though.
