I really don't understand the desire designers have for timed demos. There's a formal gown store that I usually love, but her timed demos pizz me off in a hurry. Why? It's not like a large number of people run around in SL wearing nothing but demos because they're broke. I don't see a lot of fashion bloggers wearing demos in their pics and editing out whatever demo graphic surrounds or is on the clothing. WHY? I've heard of some stores where people get ejected and banned for nudity caused by timed demos. It's STOOPID. Has anyone actually sent a notecard to these stores and politely asked why? Did you get an answer?

Aaaaand the complaining about Legacy's new body has commenced in store group chat, much like it did with LaraX. Big difference though. Legacy isn't handing out ANYTHING for free.

You're not the only one who saw that. I'm going to check the Oscar fashion reviews in the morning and see if the critics criticize the ridiculous straps on that dress.

I got hit with it today too. I just blocked it. If they come at me with another object, I'll report the whole thing. I've never been on that sim, nor have I ever played any games of chance other than gacha, so they're stealing UUIDs to spam people with. If the Lindens allow this to continue unabated, that's inexcusable.

Skin Fair 2024 - what are you excited for?
Lysistrata Szapira replied to Stephanie Misfit's topic in Your Avatar
I grabbed the Genus Morph demos and a couple skin demos built for it to toy with over the weekend. I also grabbed Lelutka's Billie. I like it, but I'm not ready to jump ship yet from LAQ Elle. What is wrong with that head btw? I haven't had any problems, but I don't use the animations HUD (too lazy). Freckles seem to be the It Girl thing right now. For anyone who loves freckles and lots of them, LAQ's gift will suit perfectly. In real life, I'm one of the ginger weirdos WITHOUT freckles. -
Just in Case - Inventory Hoarding
Lysistrata Szapira replied to Persephone Emerald's topic in General Discussion Forum
I undertook the onerous task of trying on EVERY piece of system layer clothing I had back when mesh came out to see which textures were blurry and which were clear. Believe it or not, some old system layers still work and look good. Some Sn@tch layers still look great, and I wear them with/under mesh jackets a lot. Nuve appears to be moving into the BOM clothing layer market of late with their TSS offerings (lingerie and swimsuits thus far). I've been on an inventory purge spree lately, getting rid of things I can't, for the life of me, figure out why I kept in the first place. 99% of it is gifts, but I can only think I must have just unboxed it and tossed it into the appropriate folder rather than looking at it and saying, "I'd never wear that in a million years." This is for clothing only though. I dread tackling all of the other stuff. -
Peeve: LSL changes that have borked The Arcade's whole system. At least that's what The Arcade's people are blaming it on. The tl;dr is that these changes made it so everyone who sets foot in The Arcade gets the same pulls/numbers, so there's no ability to use alts, unless it's clothing and another body is involved. I only wanted 2-3 things and was trying to help a friend get a rare, but we're SOL until they get this fixed.

It may be that they're using a face deformer. Warm Animations has a deformer that will do different things to the eyes (and face).

Peeve: Why are demos the LAST thing to rez at events? I've lost count of how many times I've had to TP out and back in to get demos to show up. Why does this happen? What's so unusual about demos that they don't want to render on first approach?

Ison has updated several items to X: Mattie long sweater dress, Mallen leggings, and matching socks. The redelivery terminal will send the updated fits if you have already purchased these items. If you haven't, the fatpack of socks and the warm tone packs are 100L while the other colors and fatpacks are 50% off. It's like Christmas when Harry updates things to X that I've already purchased! Baiastice has the cutest sweatshirt up for Happy Weekend, with plush bears in the hood (can be turned off) and matching jeans for X and a matching plush bear handbag. Truth has a new casual dress out too for 100L per color pack. I spent more than I planned on spending this weekend, even though these were all sale items.

I understand it's not what you're looking for, but when I pay for an item (as opposed to group gifts and freebies), I always change the name of the folder to include the date of purchase (i.e. 2.21.24), so I don't have to go into properties to see the date acquired. My inventory is also sorted by year acquired, so if I buy a sofa in 2024, it's going to go in the 2024 furniture folder. I did not do this until about 5 years into my time in SL, so it was a beeyutch to sort my inventory. As time and technology passes, I will shift older stuff that I don't really use but don't want to trash into a folders labeled something like "Furniture 2018 and older."

For those who are into Spectacledchic's aesthetic but have passed on by them because there's no LaraX on the vendor, this outfit at Kustom9 fits LaraX despite the vendor only saying fits for Lara and Legacy. I took the demo just for funsies, and it fits! I've tested it against my AO and some dances, and so far the mesh hasn't broken. My avatar is relatively slender though. I'm not sure if this applies to all of Spectacledchic's most recent releases, but it's worth a look. Alas, I'm on a self-imposed budget shakedown, so I can't afford it right now.

I haven't tested it with more than one hair, so I can't say one way or another.

This is the SupremeUHD head using one of the accompanying skins. I think I'd want a lip corrector because I don't like the slightly open-mouthed look. I also don't like the UHD lipsticks that come in the HUD (second photo). Those make my lips look so wrinkly! The lashes have really rough ends on them, and I tried all of the different HUD settings. One of the eyeshadows included is absolutely gorgeous though (third photo).

I decided to buy the new head at the discount price. This is using the EvoX head with the Boataom skin that was given away in December. I used a few Izzie's corrections on it. Surprisingly, the shape and eyebrow base that came with the new head needed no adjustments for the Boataom skin, Even though it's the EvoX head, I expected that I'd need to do some tinkering. I WILL do tinkering, just not tonight. In general, I don't do reaction animations because I'm too lazy to click on things. Very few people look at other people's faces anyway. The sweat and tears are neat, but they will clash with alpha layers, like in this Doux hair. The bit with the mouth opening slightly even without animations turned on is a tad annoying. I may go back to Lel Noel, but I'll wear this one for a few days to decide if it's me.
