Last week I let go 3 beloved Bellisseria homes. A log, vic, and trad. It was tough doing it. But I quickly got over it and put those three alts in storage. I've kept a Stilt and my beloved Newbrooke. I never could get to all of them to decorate, as I also have a full region that occupies a lot of my time as well. To be honest after 12 1/2 years of shopping I have just about all the clothing I need and a large percentage of that is conservative dress. I still have a few things on my list to purchase clothing wise, but it gets shorter and shorter. The fun part I enjoy is mixing and coordinating clothing pieces. That is addicting. I love shoes, and to a certain extent hair. I pretty much stick to GOS shoes. I have long hair in first that I wind up sitting on. So it's fun to look for hair...and right now is updo's I am on the search for. I have a very nice collection started. Makeup not so much. So overrated in my book. I have digressed a bit. Linden Homes can be and are addicting. I am waiting for the 2048's as I am Premium +. If I am able to get a nice plot I may consider letting go of my other Linden Homes. Time will tell. In the end lots of things are addicting in Second Life lol.

I've worn nothing else but Amara Beauty since 2015. My suggestion would be to IM Shana and ask her personally what she did to achieve this look. She is a very nice lady and I am sure she would be able to help you. I know at one time early on using her skins I was having trouble with my lips and she was glad to help. Couldn't hurt.

Fond memories of Slink Hands and Feet. The best of the best that was out there. I wish Sid all the best in whatever endeavor she attempts. The pandemic was hard on everyone. Close the door and you go girl!!!

I have to agree. I have tossed back many a house that was stunning, but something was off about it. This is just me and what I visualize. It has to tick ALL the boxes for me.

I have sounds on my region. A vineyard takes up over half the region and then there are trees scattered throughout. I have bird song, along with wolf, owl, eagles, and coyote which are common in my area of the USA. Yes, I provide a stream of romantic music for those who would prefer that, but there is something to be said for sitting in a swing, overlooking a lake, listening to nature. I find that very relaxing. Anyone who visits are free to turn the nature sounds off

I change my region from season to season. After Thanksgiving I will do the winter thing until the day after Christmas. I'm not much on winter, except for leading up to Christmas. It's pretty, but If I could, I would skip winter all together. I am a 3 season girl.

I love using the Gyazo GIF. From time to time I upload little snippets of my region to Flickr. You will enjoy it.

yeah. When I first applied the Ice Grey it was a dark grey. WTHeck? I figured I would have to use a third party wall system. This does not make me happy, but no choice at this point. I will still play around with the colors and see what happens. Thanks Diamond

This is me. I made my own everyday windlight/EEP setting and I use it all the time. No shadows, no moving sky, no shadows, and just bright enough. Only changing it for photography , or when I need mood lighting. Winks. From time to time when I am out exploring I do use the Shared Environment.

This is amazing Marianne. When I have time later I will try to recolor my walls. Grumbles about change not always being a good thing and walks off.

I've been here almost 13 years. I have been a cloud 3 times. Count that 3 times! My inventory did not load completely 1 time. I rarely use voice, but when I have the issue has always been my problem, not LL. I have had maybe 2 times that MP did not work for me. Website broken? Only a handful of times have I not been able to log in. Never have I had LL demand I pay more money, as it has always been my choice if I want to upgrade. I'd say for 13 years that is a pretty good track record. No complaints here.

Thank you. I will try these

I will try it Fay. Thank you.

I did Marianne. I took the Icy Grey texture from the old content kit and entered the codes and it gave me a dark grey. I checked to make sure I had done it right several times. same results. The wall kit is 3 IL. Not much really. But every LI counts in the Linden Homes.

Out of all the traditional floorplans, the Adams is my favorite. On one end I have a bedroom, bath and the the other end is the kitchen/dining. The entry room is the living room. I am profoundly claustrophobic in 1st, and unfortunately it followed me here to 2nd so I like large rooms and large homes. Oddly enough the Adams does not give me the feeling of being closed in with the walls. I tried all the new floorplans and promptly went back to the original Adams. In the process I lost my favorite wall color...The Ice Grey. It is no longer an option so I am very unhappy about that. I prefer soft neutral colors and not the garish colors that have replaced some of the previous colors in the traditionals. @Quartz Mole, can you not put back the ice grey texture? Pretty Please? If not, it's a real bummer that I have to use a interior shell for all the walls now, as LI is at a premium as it is. sighs...

I tried Teegle...several times since they have been introduced. I don't fit well on the Teegle. My avatar always sits off center and when riding my avatar goes into rubber band mode. It's quite irritating to see yourself ahead of your horse or even behind. I have tried everything I can think of to rectify this to no avail. None of my Waterhorse mounts do this and I have all four. I'll stick with Waterhorse.

I've leased a full region for a few years, then upped it to a 30K region about 4 years ago. I love digging in pixel dirt so this is my playground and classroom of sorts. If(and it's a big if), I ever decide to downgrade to a homestead I might consider getting one. Then again I can lease one for essentially the same amount and pay in lindens. Oh, and my tier never increases as long as I am a tenant. Yeah. I will stay where I am at.

I don't do Halloween, but here I am in my vineyard.

Fall in my vineyard

I'll just stick with my organizational skills concerning my inventory closet. I have everything neatly arranged in folders...Dresses, evening gowns, pants, tops, and so on and so forth. Those folders have subfolders where I sort the items down by style like crop tops, bralette's, button down, wrapped or tied, cami's, corsets, halter, dressy, lace, leather, Tank, T-shirt, sweaters, etc. Then those subfolders have sub-folders...as in asymmetrical, long sleeves, short sleeves, no sleeves, off shoulder, etc. Since I went Premium Plus I have a photo for every piece of clothing in my inventory if it didn't come with one. I started keeping a neat inventory when I was about 2 months old. I just couldn't find anything in my inventory and was at my wits end. I was directed to Caledon and Happy Hippos where I took classes on inventory management. What a godsend those classes were. My inventory of just clothing items totals 30,000. I keep no furniture or landscaping in my inventory. That is all neatly filed away in storage boxes. I see no reason to keep all of that in my inventory once I have finished decorating and landscaping my region. I keep all original clothing boxes/bags/huds in their respective storage boxes as well. I make up outfits using the Appearance tab and save them, switching out shoes, tops, bottoms, jewelry as needed to refresh the look and for the holidays. Two clicks and I have changed my appearance, and am ready for anything. My objects folder stays empty unless I am shopping and most new purchases go there. I will take those purchases home, open them, delete the sizes I don't use (I only use one body) and file the originals away in their respective storage box. I keep nothing in trash either, emptying it several times throughout the day. I should note...I do have the CTS and have never used it. Happy with the way everything is organized as it is.

I was never into the Stiletto Moody shoes. I think I frequented B&G and Maitreya. I still have my collection of pre-mesh, from Bliss, AZUL, and My Precious and prim hair from EMO-tions, Dr. Life, and Vanity. I still wear a up-do from Dr. Life from time to time. I do miss Bliss and My Precious. These two Fashion Houses could put on the Fashion Shows like no one else.

A Traditional, Stilt, Log, Victorian and Newbrooke. Each one has has a gorgeous water view, and I will be hard pressed to give up any. Plus I am waiting for the 2048's to be released as I went Premium Plus on my main, which is me!.
