Aethelwine Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 (edited) I was talking about a CyberGoth Neko\Elf period when I first started. K&L outfits complete with skin and hair, for the complete Cybergoth look the A&Y Cyber locks too with optional mask. Such a cool look. My avatar complexity must have been frightening - lol. Surprised no one has mentioned steampunk, there is still a presence in world but it doesn't seem to be anything like as big as it was.

LOL /me sighs and reminisces "those were the good ol' days of SL..." to add...I have all of those, and thighs, tummy (not a pregnant tummy), belly button ring, shoulders too I think (or something along those lines), feet. ok, I own a lot of xcite stuff, at the very least everything (female) they made/sold from like 2008 to probably 2011-ish, maybe later, it's hard to remember. Of course none of that has had any use, or need for use I suppose, in many years now, since their rl counterparts are way more fun, and stuff. Back then if you dared check my transparencies, pretty much all of me lit up like a lobster straight out the boiling pot. I used to take all of our old TSO refugees to xcite-sometimes on their first day on the grid, priorities you know, lmao. We had field trips and went as a group all the time, because, as you're well aware, getting those things placed correctly was damn near impossible. Then we'd go to the castle yard and work on nipple and bit placement (this was some random castle we found in 2008, vampires lived there, when they were actually home. They were awesome people, didn't care at all that we used their land. We even used to play tag and hide and seek with them. I really need to look up the place, I always forget the name...but I'm rambling again) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good grief, I'm farther behind the times than I thought. Yes, I agree. I'm not so sure those were fads, by definition. They are all still around. Perhaps not so relevant, but still around. Here's some I rarely ever see anymore: Nekos. Modifiable outfits and hair. Stand-alone shopping malls. Truly welcoming groups of people instantly and genuinely welcoming a newcomer into their space. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truly welcoming groups of people instantly and genuinely welcoming a newcomer into their space. Modifiable outfits survive in the furry community. I never exactly understood why that divide happened. Granted since we use human mesh bodies a lot of the time, it's not as common as it used to be, but almost every furry who makes clothes leaves them moddable. Especially for non-human bodies. Hair though? Truth at least keeps theirs mod-enabled, unless it's rigged. Edited November 6, 2019 by Cinos Field 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairreLilette Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 There used to be facelights in just about everything. Facelights on mesh doesn't look good. It just looks like your face is glowing. The lumi lights that surround your avatar for photography are cool though but you can make your own set if you know how to work the basic SL tools and not spend 3200 linden or something like that for lumi lights. I have some for free that I made if anyone wants a set...just IM me inworld. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJ Hoobinoo Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Don't forget the spankers and titlers as fads. There was a time you couldn't go anywhere without hearing a smack and "so and so spanked so and so". And titlers- where other people could put a title over your head - naughty titles and such - Just cringing at the memories! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one I am thinking of has various lights that attach to the avatar that are movable via a hud. You can change color and intensity and position via the hud. It’s useful for photographers because it can be attached rather than rezzed. It’s a neat product, but too rich for my blood... very pricey. ETA: I still see (read) those spankers all of the time. Probably three times in the past week at events, and I can never figure out how to block them. Is it even possible?

I forgot the name whether it was lumi lights or lumi balls but I saw them on Marketplace and made my own. They are for photography. You wear them and then position them around your avatar where you like the lighting effect. You can wear one, two or three depending on how you want the photograph to be lit. They are lights that are used in rl for photography and film...like the schematic below and are basically key light, fill light and back light. There are many different kinds on MP with a gadget (push button kind of stuff) but if you know how to use the built-in SL tools you can move them around your avatar. I made mine by rezzing balls and then I set either full bright or glow and move them around my avatar. You have to make each one wearable. I'm not putting down other's work who have made some of the gadgets for SL photography as their's do more but I thought my free ones were sufficient for what I needed and they do make very interesting SL photographs. If you know how to use the built-in SL tools built into every object in SL, you can color your own by clicking on the texture tab of the edit menu and then open the color picker palette by clicking on the oblong box below the word color. To make a projector, check the LIGHT box area found in the Features area of the edit menu. The most important thing about lumi lights is you need patience and a darkened environment setting as dark as you can get. It mostly resembles moonlight. But, you can always experiment. Edit: Below is a picture I did using lumi lights. After you position the light balls around your avatar, you then turn them transparent so the lights can't be seen but the light is still there. There are huds with buttons that will do all this for you; however, the built-in SL tools do the same thing...you just need to locate where the tools are in the edit menu. The lights are awesome for black and white photography...though I always preferred black and white photography...so it could just be me and my preference. (Sorry pic looks cruddy here but not elsewhere...but I think you can sort get an idea.) Edited November 7, 2019 by FairreLilette 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have gotten them at this place: A Medieval Fantasy Elven Fairy Dress & Gown Clothes Market inworld. p.s. Sorry the photo is grainy. It's one of the largest photos you can make inworld via changing the settings. That size does not fit on the forum. Thus, I guess, that's why many go to Flickr. The large photos cannot be downloaded here.

Nextio Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Anyone else remember those female shapes with the widest hips and gap possible? This was before mesh bodies. They also had pouty and sad mouths. So glad it faded out. It looked ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
