RL is always best with me. Its the only place the real people I love.

Between this and the underwear thread, I'll be glad when the holidays are over and people babysit their own kids instead of letting em sign into secondlife.

Hm. Interesting. If 5meters is roughly 16 feet and I dunno any regular houses with 16 ft walls......You make a point. ALTHOUGH then all my furniture would be made for the jolly green giant lol or is now. *goes to measure the chairs

They never send textures to be saved as .tga files?

I'm not in singularity either, but when I've had that problem it's seemed to be connected with either clothing or items worn that have special characters in the name (= ,+ * ) anything like that, OR too many tatoo layers worn together, OR one particular tatoo layer (not sure if its something done in the creation by certain makers or what but some facial hair is notorious) that somehow triggers that glitch. If you wear a beard or chest hair, try taking it off and see if the clothing problem clears up. If so just switch hairs.

Yep. (You must be playin the same mmogs as me <.< kiddding ) Cuz an AR report is not "normal sl life" if you are a normal person. And the nutjobs griefers weren't normal to start with.

Another reason to go with numbers for usernames. Then those who choose not to see the names can just stand around and give shout outs to 848759509-75 and 4840-467-6. If its socially acceptable in sl to shun folks and socially control for what kind of skin they wear, surely a body's name of choice can be worked into the mill the same way. I don't really see the "I wouldn't be caught talking to someone without a commercial grade, photo realistic, is that skin free? then we don't want your kind here -istas" settling for being called 547589675479-4.

Suggestion for the day: It solves the ongoing question of sl last names AND this bit about display names; At the time of account creation ALL citizens are assigned a unique sequence of numbers as their citizen ID. No choosing, its generated. That gives LL an unchanging absolute way to handle griefing etc. and puts all citizens on an even playing field. Once inworld you can choose whatever "name" you like, same as we do now, with time the limits we have now with regard to changing.

Its a presumption derived out of personal feeling, but maybe the complaint stems from the fact that people ignore the fact that you have a display name. I know when I go to the trouble of having a display name its because I want to be called by that. But thats not what happens. People act like its not there. Its like legally changing your name and having someone totally disregard, and therefore disrespect, that you have. Its them saying "oh but whats your real name". In that scenario, the "real" name is what the govt has said it is NOW. You can have whatever prior knowledge you like, that will not make it legal and the individual (if they're smart) wont respond to you. But in SL, because its dangling overhead, the individual never gets to move on to the new name. Ideally, they could "just" make a new avatar. Problem solved. But the use of real money in sl and nontransferable goods means dumping rl $ in the trash. Really? Because dumbo can't respect a name change? So no. End result? One unhappy user. Maybe the people who choose number sequences and unpronouncable symbols when they sign up have the best idea. No "name". Then whichever display name you're using at the time is what you get called.

Make the bastards pay for it I say. You hadda pay for it, make them pay for it. Gov. Linden won't accept the .1 deal. Maybe you won't get your money back, but at least they didn't get it for free.

It must be the pie.... I'm so happy for you, your post made me smile.

Click the empty space where you want the texture to go. You should be able to follow the previous poster's instructions then. "... a 2nd window will pop up, locate your texture there, click it and click OK. On your profile also click OK...." Afterwards definately click the done/ok button, or it will not save.

Off the bat I'm thinking your kings and queens will change every week giving any "reign" very little time to even become known or significant. But perhaps its not "so simple" to challenge a king or queen?

Personally, I see this as a good argument against having 16 year olds in sl. If they are not able to see their rl genitals why should we go showing them pixels ones. I mean we as a community are selling these skins willy nilly as if they've been looking at their own genitals all their lives. Whats next? Believing that some of them even have babies? Paint those skins out skin makers! And no selling toilets to these people either! They'll be wanting to know how to use em. And that is just wrong because it leads to genitalia and .........urinating.

Some scripts aren't meant to be worn. If you bought an object or clothing, regularly an unpacking script is inside the box or bag. Its there to cause your item to create a folder with the purchased item's name and send the item to that folder or even to your existing objects or body parts folder. It does just what it says, unpacks your goods. Often when it does this ("unpack all items") it unpacks itself too. Some merchants also include a "wear bag" script. So that you can rp being out shopping and actually hold your bag. When unpacked, its possible for that script too to be sent to the goods folder. THOSE you can just delete. Check to be sure they are indeed these kinds of scripts before you start deleting however. Scripts that you've purchased however, or ones given by LL in the scripts folders, yes those are to be used as suggested. http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Scripts http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Editing_someone_else%27s_scripts_and_notecards http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LSL_Tutorial

Could be any one of a thousand reasons. When I first joined SL I kept all of my groups showing. Yep, even the naughty ones. Ok, especially the naughty ones lol. Because to me the reason you're in the group is to meet people with similar interests. And if thats true then why are you trying to "hide" the interest? Maybe the person with the similar interest isn't already in your group. Plus they don't make bad ice breaking convos; "oh reeeeally???" and "lol". Then I went out with this one particular young lady. And it was the girl who was like "ok you need to cover those". Yep, my reaction was "for what?" but smitten and all and because it made her feel better I gave her that one. People do it for all kinds of reasons. It makes a mate happier. They are actually ashamed in front of ONE half of their friends knowing that they like "x". To keep the sl stalker from joining every single group they are in. To keep one image with one bunch of folks, while being something entirely different to the other. To keep potential dates from assuming things about them. AND if you've read some of the group names, it could alienate an entire populous of people unintentionally; "I Slap Jewish Girls" or something. Some groups are named things that are fodder to the fetish of its membership but could be misconstruded by those not into that as "racist" or at least very insultive. And do you really want to cut off innumerable people because of a group name? Could be anything. I said it to a young lady I'm friends with once; your profile is often the first impression people make of you in sl. Some people like to manage that impression. Some are "I am what I am, like it or step off" types. And still others don't like that its the first impression, they want you to talk to them first.

Also, remember not all lots will be perfectly square It becomes very relavent when talkin about house or land purchasing either one. Two houses- the ad for both says "fits on a min 2048" And they do. BUT one house is perfectly square- 45m x 45 meters which only is 2025 and the others measurements 32 x 64- long and oblong and exactly 2048. The TOTAL size of the second lot is larger than the first and yet the house from the first would not fit there!. Be sure the shape of your house and the measurements in each direction whenever you can.

OR purchase a set of full perm, psd, skin templates and became your own skin creator. Though what Klisties said is significantly cheaper. And to be frank, unless its something like skin shade, freckles, drawn representation of the genitalia, skin finish, or an "extreme" drawn aspect, by and large most skins look "the same" on you unless you change your shape. Test that principle out with a free skin and you might see what I mean. Gives you a different way of evaluating skins then. And you might be better armed when buying one that gives you whatever it is thats making you like the one you have.

It is the summation and not replacement for every single "rule" of God. It also covers every conceivable circumstance in the human experience. IF you are not biblical then go to what is called "the golden rule". That is how. All of us and all of our clans, countries, cultural subdivisions or just plain hanging buddies can construct any number of "acceptable"s and "not acceptable"s to appease and coincide with the wants and prejudicises of those groups -even to the point of making them into human laws- but none of them dictate eternal rightness and wrongness. They are just "our" right and wrong or our groups right and wrong. And so all ARE right and all ARE wrong. The only thing exempt is the above. .....if you believe in God

WOW. And you filmed that in second life?

Always be proud of everything you do as long as you tried. Yes, sometimes we're fortunate to have a finished product that surpassed our expectations of ourselves but that I don't think is what should entitle us to a feeling of pride; its that you went out and met 1. your fears, 2. an unknown and, 3. your aspiration. Hell I admire you just for getting "something" lol. You did great.

For me it happens with cheap or not well made shoes. I don't craft shoes so I don't have the particulars of why. Still and all, an alpha layer for feet won't give you shoes that move when your feet do, but should at least eliminate seeing the actual feet.
