archangel969 Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Finally had the right kind of combi for a small grass border! Mostly I use KIDD for grass and when I want more details I use more detailed grasses from other shops. But I found it difficult to find the right 3D short grass in combi with a texture (I don't want just a texture). They are mostly still too long. But now I find the combi of Botanical - Lawn Grass with as underground the texture Countess - Lawn grass. It's not about the greatest texture etc., it's about the right combination. I could colour both (3D grass and textue) so they had perfectly the same colour so they blended into one little grass border with the perfect size 3D grass. Before: okay grass but you think: they haven't mowed the grass properly. After: this is what I had in mind. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garnet Psaltery Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 (edited) I am very grateful for the little stretch of parcels I have in Morning Shire, which allow me a home, a chapel, and an HQ for the Tiny Explorers. I've loved the chance to go exploring with a little group, which is still growing. Also I'm chuffed that the Tiny Explorers RFL team got a Bronze badge for meeting its USD goal, and that we were invited to the SciFi Con and will have a Turnkey parcel on Relay weekend. I haven't been able to do very much during the season but what I've been able to do has brought me into contact with many kind, industrious, dedicated people. I'm in awe of what they achieve - 'they' including the Relay Rockers and Meli's Maniacs teams, who are so generous.

Porky Gorky Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 (edited) About 2 months ago I opened my first new store in a decade, selling full perm PBR materials. I wasn't expecting much, given the negative posts on this forum regarding PBR. However, I've just had my 1000th unique customer! I’m only a small store with a couple of hundred materials for sale so far. Considering 75% of people apparently use firestorm and can’t use/see PBR, from my tiny dataset, I think this is very positive news for PBR adoption in SL.

I got a lot of flickering I wasn’t expecting. So I switched to LL viewer and I love it 🥰 Everything looks so much better and I love PBR ☺️ 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaylinbridges Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 (edited) Today is Cinco De Mayo. the 5th of May, which is a celebration a small Mexican army's victory over Napoleon's French invasion of Mexico in 1862. His warships limped back to France, and this victory signaled the end of Napoleon's control of Mexican ports. Significant to the States, which were in The Civil War, as this bolstered Mexican support of the Union, over the Confederates Never heard of it? Read about it here: https://www.history.com/topics/holidays/cinco-de-mayo And the significance of this obscure victory, explained here: https://www.history.com/news/cinco-de-mayo-battle-puebla-civil-war In SL some music clubs located in the Southern and Western states hold Cinco de Mayo Events this weekend. Wear colorful Mexican clothes, listen to Hispanic bands from Texas. California, and Mexico: Los Lobos, Los Lonely Boys, Santana, Chingon, Tito & Tarantula, Nasta Super, The Mavericks, Calexico, Ry Cooder, Los Fabulosos Cadillacs. Litto Nebba & La Luz, and others. ZZ Top too, they have many tunes about traveling to Mexico. I will be busy Sunday, decorating the club, working on my 4 hour playlist, and drinking beer. I am only 50 pages behind in that 'other' thread, so today I will not have any catching up time (not that I really care anymore). Time to celebrate and party in SL! This is also one of the Mexican Fiestas, something more might be familiar with, but Cinco De Mayo is a local celebration for those living in Mexican-American cities today. It is not a big holiday in Mexico. And it is not the Independence of Mexico National holiday, which was years later.

FS Beta is about 1 week behind the SL PBR viewer in their Beta development cycle. As usual the FS PBR has all the features of the old Firestorm including all the SL Bugs! It also includes some PBR enhancements. Most who have tried the FS Beta prefer it over the ancient FS non-PBR Release version. I think most of your customers are actually using the FS Beta. They keep the SL PBR release around to compare bugs of course. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrina Nebula Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 There are mental health groups in SL and I love that! I didn’t even know they exist! Missed it today because I had to work longer but it’s doable every other monday for me 🥰 Also I thought this thread needs a bump because everything I see on here is about child avatars and that really is too much 😩 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillFletcher Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 I have been making lots of pictures for my gallery, all of them portraits and each one means I make a new friend. A far cry from what once was. I would log on, wander around by myself and then log off. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlammedSam Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 (edited) Any time I spend time with the love of my life is amazing. 😃 Also made some new friends over the last few days. Also, I adore SL for letting me realize my dreams of space travel, and partying like it's 1955! ^^ Or 1995 if I so wish! XD Edited May 14 by SlammedSam Adding stuff! 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike the other threads, this is intended to stay "on topic"; see the title and OP. Give it a try, I bet you could say something positive about Second Life! You're still here! I appreciate the diverse representation in Second Life, which leads to such a thoughtful discussion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadvhi Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 I'm currently doing my very first MadPea hunt (couldn't resist as it's sci-fi themed:) and am having the best time listening to upbeat music while exploring all the awe-inspiring builds! I never realized how much creative talent exists in SL. It's truly mind-blowing. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
