Alazarin Mondrian Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Quote Alyona Su: Lets be fair, though: If someone clicks a SLURL to your venue and lands somewhere and there is no venue within sight, they, more often than not, may get the impression "It's obviously moved". They also may be on-the-hunt and sim-hopping. No time to explore to find a teleport to some dance floor way up in some unseeable skybox that may or may not exist; it's too easy to TP to the next venue on the list. Just saying. Yeah, I hear what you're saying but I did set out my landing point with clearly marked teleport portals marked 'Mystery Venue', 'Mystery Station', 'Moonbase' and 'Monolith' to make things kinda obvious. I guess I'll have to use flashing neon signs in future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syo Emerald Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Dear creators, if you make an clothing that can't just be worn on its own (outside an adult venue that encourages nudity), and especially if it has a very specific cut, and you make vendor adds where your models pose with items that perfectly match - OFFER THOSE ITEMS IN YOU STORE FOR GODS SAKE! I recently brought a small jacket and some cute sleeves. Both vendor pictures showed the models with matching items to form a complete outfit. Expecting that the store will have something like that, so I can recreate the shown outfit, I brought both and got disappointed. The store not only had not the items shown in the add, it had nothing that could be combined with those items. And the seller has multiple versions of this jacket-type. Waisted opportunity to make money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a common practice among those who do modeling in SL. We are provided the outfits and it is up to us (the models) to accessorise them. Creators do not normally provide accessories.

CandyCole Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 1. Stands in room, sees chair against the wall, sits on chair .. now screen completely filled with the back of the wall. 2. Stood in store, sees nice group gifts and a lucky chair with my letter on it .. looks around for group join button, cannot find. Clicks on a few group items but no join offerred. Right-clicks one and checks under object for the group name, searches for group name, cannot find. Lucky letter changes, I leave and never come back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that a thing? I was under the assumptions that most creators simply use one of their own avatars or friends to create their vendor pictures, instead of hiring and paying a stranger to pose for them. Just like shop owners now tend to use bots in their stores, instead of real peoples avatars. I remember, when there was a time promises of sucessful modeling carriers in SL where (almost) a scam directed at clueless newbies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though the creator could have used a free script to set the camera view for that object so it wouldn't do that. Anyone wanting a copy of this script, IM me in world. I'll throw it at you when I login next! (Please be sure to mention "Camera Positioner Script" in your IM or I'll be clueless why you IM'd me) LOL 3 hours ago, Emma Krokus said: Mesh skirts you can't sit in.

Sammy Huntsman Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 I know i probably posted something about events. But please stop opening new ones, and try to make the ones already open look less basic and boothy. Nothing drives me bonkers like, I go to this new event with a unique name and all they have are booths. Like it's not that hard if you are putting together an event, and put a little time into the event and actually give it more character than just putting up decor. I have resorted to Seraphim to find things I may like at events, and even then, everything looks the same. You find that one item, that actually looks different that you really like and wind up buying. Please let's go back to 2013 to 2016, when events actually meant something and people were actually excited to go to one and spend oodles of money. Cut down the frequency of events, from monthly and biweekly, to annually and quarterly. Please oh please, can you do that? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some modeling schools were scams, some weren't. I've attended both over the years. I was one of the first runway models in SL way back in 2005 for Top Models, Inc. I even branched out into InWorldz. Built a few runways for Dallas Modeling Corp as well. I was doing quite well and getting ready to get into stills when RL life went wonky. Maybe someday I'll go back to modeling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just do so in a more floaty way. I control my flexi-tail twitch by changing gravity on a timer. Skirts are a wee bit trickier than a twitching tail. For one thing, they are not meant to twitch. A skirt is meant to rest gently on your lap when you sit and to stay there without twitching until you stand up. Generally speaking, it is poor form for a skirt to poof up and float at chest level when you are seated and it is unsightly for it to sink through your legs. Back in the dark ages, some clever person distributed a script that you could add to a prim skirt, making it flip 90 degrees at the waist when you sat down. If your skirt's hem was above your kneecaps, it almost looked realistic (if you ignored the fact that the flipped-down back of the skirt exposed your butt). Maxi-length skirts and gowns looked ghastly. Other people have tried tricks with flexi, like the one you suggest. They all fail in mild to spectacular ways. Mesh skirts are arguably the best attempt yet -- they don't sink through your legs and they don't always expose an open tunnel to your hoohah when you sit down. They still look overstarched or like an odd rubber suit much of the time, though, especially if they are floor length. IMO, the best designers combine the advantages of prim, flexi, mesh, and system textures to conceal some of the worst features of each method, instead of relying on just one. Sadly, the best solution for many women in SL is to forget about wearing skirts at all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In SL it's more difficult to find a non-thong pair of shorts pr a properly covered non-string top cover of a swimsuit. Though the "tease" is lost a lot in SL because too many prefer the sah-lutt-look and give away the cow, so the chasers never have to buy the milk. Bahahaha!
