    Just curious, but which skin & brand is that?  I'm looking for something similar for an alt.  Thanks in advance.

    Hi There

    The body skin is from L'Etre and I believe it's called Homme for Gianni (Golden Tone)

    The face is from StrayDog and it's called Mirko (Tone 5) for Catwa.

    I could be wrong but I believe L'Etre had to pull their skins from the MP and inworld due to an ongoing copyright claim so I don't think they are available at the moment.

    Aww thank you, Vin. Yes, there's nothing like a massive set of duck lips to smack you in the face first thing in the morning haha (I do try to make them smaller/thinner but that 'top shelf' thing that the top lip's got going on, just won't quit).

    Oh they look just fine to me.

    One the plus side at least the cold shower will wake me up at this early time of the morning.

    Don't actually have any pics of my original avi from 2006 (wasn't in SL very long back then) but here's the original of this one (hard to see, I know, but at the time,  I didn't know Vin would start this forum thing or I'd have paid more attention :P )

    Then:

    That's OK, the second picture is a lot easier to see and what a nice image to wake up to at 5am. :P

    These pics right here. You know when cats get soooo into their purring thing that they start drooling? I need a bib. Stat.

    Thank you, will definitely take that as a compliment. :)

    Can't help you with the bib, welcome to use my tie? :P

    I'm in talks with LL support about trying to get access to my original account which would of been close to when SL first started but my dial up internet back then couldn't handle it so fingers crossed I can get it back and take a picture of my very first avi.

    It was so long ago I forgot the name I choose so hopefully the email address I gave them which I also no longer have access too is the one I used all those years ago to sign up.

    Fashion sense really comes down to a matter of a persons own taste.

    In RL I'm a jeans and t-shirt kind of guy, in SL while i'm usually topless I do find it enjoyable just going to stores or lately to mens events and picking up as many demos as i can find and try them all on till i find something i like, that's how I found the coat outfit I posted a picture of the other day.

    I think sometimes, if your avi is too attractive you will find people gravitate towards you who are just after looks and not your personality, arm candy I think some people say.

    I used to worry about what people thought instead of doing what I wanted to do and I was used because of it so at the end of the day it is YOUR SL adventure so do what I do, don't worry about what others think and do whatever makes you happy. :)

    If you don’t mind my asking, what makes you prefer paler skins over darker?

    I can't speak for ForrestChild but I think the 'tanned' skin meta is over. I myself have always used a tanned skin but I'm thinking of changing to a more lighter one.

    Maybe it was something to do with the 'surfer' look? (which in RL I was/am one) 

    Some like the lighter skins as well, vamp, anime, personal choice.

    Either way ForrestChild is dam adorable whatever skin she uses. :)

    Here's one I did early on of a "punk rock"  I made, lmao! ( a bit contrasty, but I still love it...lol)

    punk rock.jpg

    I love it.

    See that's what I love about photography, it's like art, you either like it or you don't, people can say too much contrast, too dark, too out of focus blah blah blah.

    At the end of the day it's a personal choice. :)

    I'd post some pictures I have taken but I better not hijack the thread, I wonder if there is an off topic thread we could start with pictures? :)

    I looove b&w film photography, and haunt the thrift stores looking for old film cameras (usually 35mm). I think I have around 15 right now, lol! You can find really nice cameras with filters, lenses, and all the goodies for great prices! 

    Oh we would get along just fine, I still have my Canon film camera I first used that got me into photography and just bought a fancy point and shot camera which I want to use for black and white street photography.

    Me, too, Vin! I came just short of getting a degree in photography while I was back in school advancing my nursing degree. ( My mom used to say I was an eternal student, lol) I actually find SL photography a bit more difficult. I did have to take a couple classes on Photoshop as part of the curriculum, which I'm thankful for! 

    I haven't been out in RL and taken many for a while but I still enjoy it, I tend to get bored of the cameras I use so I think it's time to sell my two and buy just one. 

    I'm no good at photoshop, I use lightroom for my RL pictures which is why I have to try and find a nice sim with a nice background for pictures. :)
