  1. After going to different region my body was full of holes, my teeth were missing and my head looked as if I had been in bad accident. Anyway, I was able to fix everything by detaching my body, teeth, head and then re-attaching them.
  2. Head: Vista Lia (bento head) Skin: YS&YS (came with the head) Hair: D!va - "Akane" Onyx Necklace: Loordes of London - "The Cluster-#1" Bindi: SAGA - "My Moon Bindi" Jacket: StormCrow - "Fur Jacket"
  3. Exploring winter regions. Giving my winter clothes some use before the summer comes. At: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Hades/21/187/33
  4. Today's vanity selfie. Six LL's regions (which used to be earlier only for premium members), I saw only two other avatars in one of them. In the rest five, nobody was there. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Tapir/118/65/23
  5. Early morning horse riding. Bento horse rezzes. Great looking horse and very realistic bento animations. Ten beautiful full regions to use the horse - for free. Horse rezzes in two locations: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Glanduin/236/74/23 http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Mirromere/75/196/42
  6. It is a photo studio with plenty of different props. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/LUNATICA/220/205/554 The area was "MEDITERRANEAN" where I took the photo. When I went back to look at it that area had been already removed (they seem to make daily changes there). Anyway, that place is nice to take photos as they have lots and lots of different props to use as a background. All free to use.
  7. Randomly exploring places (which is often fun thing to do). Found this build with a pose at the door.
  8. It's also worth checking Vista Lia head which is very beautiful. The cost at the moment is 2500 L$. It comes with three different skins, all with many shades. It is Omega compatible. Included are also lots of nice looking facial animations.
  9. Mostly wondering there how to adjust and where to put my legs so that they are not in the way while eating. The food looked ok though.
  10. First (suspicious) visit to Japanese restaurant.
  11. My avatar height is 1.78 meters (= about 5 feet and 10 inches) measured with prim, flat feet no hair on. Measuring like that gives the only accurate real height of the avatar. Linden Lab viewer shows wrong height and even until now they haven't corrected that misleading information in their viewer. Firestorm viewer gives quite close to the accurate height. There are some scripted height measurement tools and HUDs, some give close to the accurate height, some give wrong height. With that height in many places I appear quite short compared to others. Then in some places I see also others with similar height and even shorter. I like this height because you can make the avatar look realistically well proportioned, which is impossible with very tall avatar, especially for female ones.
  12. snob •a person who believes that their tastes in a particular area are superior to those of other people. Not saying that all "no-mod" designers are snobs but I have a strong feeling that some might be.
  13. Hey, that's not bad at all. Since I joined SL I have always liked tanned skins. I do like tanned skin also in RL. Happy to look as a "beach bimbo tan" person. Anyway, I have tried some light skins but I just don't feel at home in them. My eyes are so used to the darker look. (One advantage in tanned skin is that it's not washed out so easily as a light skin when some mega blinding face light person appears next to you.) But that's how it is, tastes vary. Everybody has their preferences about their looks. The most important thing is what will satisfy you. Go with it.
  14. Now that I recently finally went to bento mesh head there's no going back to system head. The bento animations in the face are so very cute, and they make the face to look alive. ♥ Head: Vista Lia, with YS&YS skin Eyes: Vista's rigged eyes with AG's "Twinkle Eyes" applier Body: Maitreya, with Glam Affair skin Hair: EMO-tions "Susannah"
  15. New year's party. Eyes started to look a bit sleepy after hours of dancing.
  16. After long walk in winter forest, it's time to pamper hungry stomach. Happy New Year 2018!
  17. I think one of the problem in adjusting shape is that people make their avatars too tall. Then to compensate for the tallness everything else has to be made bigger too and then the problems in trying to make well proportioned avatar start sooner than if the avatar was smaller. Female avatar standing on flat feet shouldn't be taller than somewhere around 1.80 meters. Taller than that, then for example it's impossible to make the arms long enough to be realistic compared to the body height. Is 1.80 meters too short in general? Well, most often female avatars wear high heels which add about 10 cm to height. Not enough yet? Wear platform high heels which add about 5 cm more. So now the avatar is 1.95 meters tall. Should be enough for any woman - unless your partner happens to be a 2.50 meters tall giant.
  18. Bento hands need animations which always animates the hands, else they relax to fingers apart position. The weird thing is (if nothing is animating the hands) that the wearer might see them in nice position but others will see them in fingers apart position.
  19. Sometimes after teleport mesh body and mesh head can deform or have have holes in them. It just happens randomly, cannot do anything about it. Often what corrects the situation is just to take them off and put back on, no need to re-log. In Firestorm viewer there is also in the menu: "Avatar, Avatar Health, Refresh Attachments" which sometimes corrects the situation. Re-logging and/or clearing the cache would be needed only if the fore mentioned things don't correct the situation.
  20. Just to show that a mesh body can be made looking very nice. In this example I'm wearing Maitreya body and Vista Lia head. I have adjusted the body and head so that they look as realistic as possible with good body proportions. To my eyes that looks like a real life young person with firm excellent body - a body to lust for. And by the way, nobody has ever said that I look too young because "your boobs are too small for this venue". And I certainly would not care a bit if somebody ever said that in future. I think the problem which many people might have in adjusting their shape is that they really haven't looked carefully how real people look like. So they go way overboard in adjusting the shape trying to resemble something they dream of, and then the result will look really bad; boobs like torpedoes ready to launch, very wide hips, huge bum, bee like waist, too short arms, tiny hands, etc, etc. There are limits how much a shape can be adjusted to not to make it bad looking.
  21. Today I visited photo studio. Nice bento poses and lots of backgrounds to select.
  22. Today I went reindeer riding in Calas Caladhon winter region. Two beautiful full regions to have winter fun. There's free reindeer rezzer. As often is the case in SL, this animal too was way oversized, about 2 times bigger than the real reindeer is! Anyway the riding was fun and enjoyable. The animations were very realistic thanks to the bento bones in the animal.
