  1. thanks a bunch for the slurl, ayashe! that made it SO much easier to find the stuff! now i have lots of demos... i didn't look at the pricetags, though :X ohh... sorry to disappoint you, LZ lexxi... i'm not 100% sure which piccie you're pointing to. but the last one in that part of the post... is kinda too dark and too small for me to tell i think i'm liking the velour/eros brownie/mocha combo. are the eros skins only 300? or is that some kinda sale going on :X guess i better make up my mind fast! thanks, everybody!
  2. has this happened to anyone else? i happened to glance at my lost and found folder, and found what i thought were some stray objects in it. (i, uh, do happen to keep a few things in there as their home.) but then i kept scrolling and there were more and more and MORE objects! items that i sell. but NO, wait... these were not VENDORS that were returned from who-knows where. these were the items IN vendors. and no, i didn't have them, the boxed items, sitting out anywhere. the only thing i can think of is... if the marketplace delisted the listings for these items, and then the 'marketplace listings' floater barfed them back out into my inventory, and they went into lost & found??? just what the heck???
  3. i found some head skins i like at gloom. but the tint i like is for 'velour' which i think only makes female skins? or 'eros' tints, but i cannot find an eros skin store anywhere do you know about those brands?
  4. thank you so much, ayashe! i had a play with the freebie lelutka heads. they're pretty nice. love the elf ears. i just got the logo freebie heads, and i'm having a LOT more luck with noel. also, the logo heads are mod. (i had the freebie chase head from logo, it has served me well.) i'll be trying other head shapes from them. i did try to look at their MP just recently, and was really disappointed. but when i got to the main store for the event, i was surprised to see WAY more heads than were on MP. the skins, tho. SO hard to find. no categories. or sub categories on those things in MP. i'm hitting those brands you mentioned right now and grabbing demos.
  5. i would like to have the head i have in... um, i don't remember which freebie MMO thing. it looks like this: https://prnt.sc/10geicm https://prnt.sc/10gehgw this is the best i could do, trying out the kris head: https://prnt.sc/_kDhoSs9Qfkz i can't get the lower face/cheeks/jaw smooth enough with this head. or the other heads i have. (i have meta neo 1 and 2, mr poet sigurd, and logo chase.) so, two questions... 1: can anyone recommend a head that they think can be shaped like this? it needs to have a male neck option, at least. i would REALLY prefer it to be mod. and to not have large puffy lips that are in style nowadays. 2: can anyone recommend a skin like this tone? i have a hard time finding an 'ethnically hard to pin down' golden/bronze/butterscotch skin tone. it needs to have a hairless body option. and no facial hair/follicles. (eyebrows okay) i'm not married to evox uvs or sluvs at this time. as long as the head and body go together. i'd be grateful for any leads. thank you!
  6. OMGOSH! thank you guys SO MUCH!! i'm not hyper worried about 'off brand' bodies (i own two off-brand male mesh bodies. yeah, it's a pain, but they're mod, so...!), as long as there's a demo, and i can try stuff on. it's crazy, but i found that the (slink/tmp/gianni) clothing i have for my male avatars actually fits BETTER on the teen turf body. go figure. i was liking that, but i can't get the bwb slider to zero without collapsing the chest (and the hair i really want needs it at zero, because it is made for adult women). and it has kinda prominent nipples. their clothing is nice, too. but i think i'd be happier with a more androgynous body. anyway, off for more shopping and demo-ing! thanks again!
  7. heyas! i find myself obsessed with making a tween avatar for my unicorn academy obsession. but i'm having trouble finding out anything about kid/teen/tween avatars. and skins? especially skins. especially 'ethnically hard to pin down' skins. let's go over what i've got so far... SMB -- this used to be 'the' thing, but no longer exists, so forget it. Tweenster -- the 'new' thing. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/MM-HUD-Tweenster-V5-DEMO/21972227 oh, and that's not the store name. the store name is MeshMerized (MM) Wall-E Tommy -- not from the movie... Wall-E is the store name. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/WALL-E-Tommy-Complete-Avatar-BOM-BodyHead-DEMO/24447207# Punk Small Avatar (free) https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/PUNK-Mesh-Replacement-Body-V6-Small-Avatar/10765375 Teen Turf -- https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Teen-Turf-Complete-Mesh-Tween-Child-Avatar/20333064 (demo in-world only) the store name is Mallory Witt's Grid Gear Utilizator Normie Head -- https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/UTILIZATOR-Normie-Head-DEMO/13071630 in case your t/ween doesn't have a head, or you don't like the one it comes with. this is actually pretty nice. it only fits the female neck, though. now, i have seen a buncha clothing for other brands/models, but i can't find the fool things. there's something called a Youth Body. perhaps a Youth Kitty? Toodledoo has a Tweeneedoo. i can't find either one of those. (can i diverge to an MP rant? 1: people put on their listings that 'this is for [ZY-MM8B]' without explaining what the HECK those INITIALS stand for! 2: they do NOT link to where you GET these bodies. 3: they put that their mesh items are compatible with (insert mesh body name here), which is good, but LL fell down on the job, because THAT section of the listing doesn't link to anything. when i click 'more info' it doesn't take me to the thing it's compatible with, it takes me to a page that explains what a mesh body is! 4: whenever i find a name and search for that name... i get the clothing or skins or addons or accessories for that body... BUT NOT THE BODY LISTING. !??!?! DAAAAAAAAAH!) i know there's groups for the sl kids... but i don't know what/where any of those are, either, to ask them: what are the big name youth/kid/tween/teen creators and stores? so! any advice and guidance? and especially MP links??? thank you!
  8. heyas, thanks! i found someone else who has this problem semi-often. there's supposedly an issue for it on the firestorm jira, so it's a firestorm thing (unless you're using another viewer). i didn't find the issue, but i was told... clearing the cache usually fixes it. before i found that out, i downloaded cool viewer, and that uploaded the textures just fine. but i pointed it to a different cache than my firestorm one. which was over 1.2 G in size, so... that might have been bad?
  9. has anybody seen this issue? when bulk or single uploading 512x textures, they come out as if they are partially rezzed: https://prnt.sc/JSdgG1_DOXhs i had a 128x texture that uploaded fine. the texture preview looks fine. also, i uploaded them in the beta grid LITERALLY* minutes before this, and they're fine. i'm using Firestorm 6.6.8 (68380) Jan 3 2023 (maybe i should update). but why is it working on beta and not on main??? not sure where to turn for aid. firestorm? LL? relog?? another region? another avatar? (* when i say 'literally' i mean 'non-figuratively'! ;P)
  10. apologies if this was covered before, but i need to vent (and, honestly, stop 'wasting time' scrolling through peeves!).... remember when the phrase "Free Gift" was ridiculously redundant? a stupid marketing ploy to hit people with two words meaning they were gonna get something for free. "a gift is free, by definition!" we used to say. congratulations, second life, you've made that no longer a thing. yes, there's freebies vs dollarbies and i get that. there was even that thing where, to get a 'free' gift, you had to pay caspervend 1 L and it would refund it to you for some convoluted reason. but NOW. i have seen items at events where people are offering 10L GIFTS! or 25 or even 30, i think. yes a GIFT that you HAVE TO PAY FOR. sure, 30L is a pittance, but... that's not a gift, bro. it's just NOT. are things on 25L tuesdays 'gifts'? are the things on fifty linden fridays 'gifts'? nobody is pretending they are. ...yet?
  11. heyas! i have some products i no longer sell, because i cannot support them any longer. i unlisted them, BUT i left the items associated in my Marketplace Listings palette. that means that previous purchasers of the item can get a redelivery. right???? i also had a listing for a pre-release item, and i wanted to send the purchasers of that item both the final release and a bonus item. so i delisted (but left the new box associated!) that item, and tried a bulk redelivery. i couldn't help but notice there was no 'bulk redeliver' button unless the item was listed. i delisted it after pressing the button, and after after a day, the redelivery status is failed. is this how it's supposed to work?
  12. @Patch Linden who do i contact with regards to questions for clarification of the license agreement? specifically: Section 4.3 Restrictions In order to protect Linden Lab’s trade secrets and other rights in the SDK Materials, Licensee agrees not to ... (b) create derivative works of any of the SDK Materials. -- does that mean that NO, i cannot A) transform the mesh into a petite, B) re-uvmap the mesh, and/or C) slice parts of it to make form-fitting clothing? Section 7 Confidential Information (everything) -- how does this apply in regards to helping users with the devkits, ie: in-world or discord SL item development groups (cf: avastar et al)? are we not allowed to share knowledge we gleaned from working with the senra devkits? to everyone, in general... it sounds to me that a lot of the licensing wording might have been requested/required by established big name brands, in order to protect their interests from market flooding of new stuff for the new newbie avatar.
  13. so there was a good point made for the NUX/Senra library items to be no transfer, to prevent people from throwing them into their marketplace listings and ripping people off. seems fair. i'm against no-mod library objects. : / but that sounds like tilting at windmills, so onward! DEVKIT LICENSING QUESTIONS: what will one be allowed to do -- and NOT do -- with the devkit? can i edit the avatar body mesh and reupload it as something else. for example, change the uvs? can i make a petite version? what about a giant? can i make teen/tween/child avatars out of them? halfings, dwarves, elves, faeries, pixies? taurians? can i rip off the arms and chest, then sculpt it and add cuffs and collars to make a shirt that is weighted properly?
  14. i've been trying to find out HOW/WHERE the devkits will be released. do you have any info on that? through what channel it will be announced? thanks a bunch!
