  1. I would like to put a Real URL/website on a Notecard. Can this be done? I searched a bit but only found answers from years ago. I hope this can be done now. Several years ago it could not be. Thanks.
  2. Whirly, I did as you suggested at it worked! Unchecking the SPAM protection box seemed to help a bit with lag, too, which was a bonus. Thank you so much for your help!
  3. I can't see local chat from certain people. They are not blocked, because I have IM'd then to say, "I can't see what you are saying in local!" I can see everybody else's local chat. I use Firestorm. Can anybody think of something I may have clicked/unclicked to make this happen? Thanks.
  4. How do I disable incoming chat for Individual groups? I don't want to disable ALL group chats, just some. In Firestorm I had this option, but I do not see it in SL Viewer. I switched back to SL Viewer after using FS for a long time. So I am relearning things. It's worth it though. SL Viewer has a LOT less lag from what I can determine so far. Thank you.
  5. No she does not want to mute him. She wants off this HUD. Yes, I know you can check to see if avatar is online.
  6. I am not sure if this is the right category, but I will start here. My friend recently told me she is on somebody's "Avatar Online" Hud. He is knows when she is online in SL. This a matter of her wanted OFF this HUD. She says she doesn't know what to do or how to get off it. It seems like this device should be not allowed in SL, but she says SL does allow it. I said, well let me post this dilemma in the SL Community Help, because they always give good advice. Do you have any ideas how she can get off this HUD or how to block it? Thank you! Kate
  7. I posted this in the General Area and somebody suggested I posted it in the Merchants Forum since there may be more people with this experience. Can any of you give me insight/opinions on buying/having a Store Affiliate/franchise? I have asked questions here before and I have found you give great advice. I like to explore different things in SL, and this idea came to me. Are they worth it? Can I make a little money (I'm not looking to get rich!)? I've been searching the help area and also the Internet and cannot find much information. The info on these help areas is quite old. I also would like to know how to buy one set it up. How much should I pay for one? I see some on the Marketplace for free, and then I see some for 2K up to 20K! How much is a reasonable commission? I do have a couple of clothing stores that looked interesting, but I wanted to check here first. If you know of a website you can let me know that too please. Thank you so much.

  9. Thank you Sven. Yep, I fell for it. I'm so mad at myself! Let's hope your post helps others too. Even though I failed because of my attitude at the end when I realized this class and instructor were NOT what they should have been and I questioned it.
  10. Thank you for your help. I had a feeling I had not recourse, but I'm glad I asked to remind others of this. Plus, there are not too many (IF ANY) forum posts on modeling, so I hope this helps somebody else. The forums were the first place I looked before I even signed up for the class. p.s. I got a notecard from him today saying I failed because of my attitude, and how I did not ask for help, and that I should have known how to style. Oh darn. I'm so sad I failed. NOT. I'm glad to be done. Thanks again.
  11. Thank you for your help. And YES I found that out about the drama. They also wanted to change my face (to look more ASIAN - which I think is racist). They also gave me a shape that made my look like Olive Oyl. I wanted to learn about it. and boy did I! And 3500L is CHEAP. One school wanted 25,000L, the average is 7,000L. Also, you must be CERTIFIED to get a modling job (I know right). And to be certified you must go to a school. There is really NO PAY except for pay in clothing that you model. Everybody please take note so you are not taken in by this scam called modeling. It is a huge industry in SL and if you really love fashion try it, but wow I hated it. p.s. I got a notecard from him today saying I failed because of my attitude, and how I did not ask for help, and that I should have known how to style. Oh darn. I'm so sad. Not. Thanks again.
  12. Pardon me while I vent and ask advice. Not even sure this is the right category. Before I give the details, I love learning and to me SL is one big school. I decided to learn about modeling. Mostly to see what it was about, not to do it seriously. (After learning, I know it's not for me.) I took a modeling class for 3500L. We took our "final" last night. He told the other three girls that they passed, but I have asked him three times and he has not responded. At the beginning of the class, he said to pass we need to walk the T-planks. Three attempts, one fall, In the final, he also gave us an additional requirement to pass that he NEVER showed me how to do in any other class. He may have shown the others, who are already certified, but he never showed ME. (because I was in the later class, which he constantly cancelled) Well, for my final, I did OK with the clothing (which I winged because he never showed me the correct way to do it) and I did not once fall off the "planks." All three of the other girls fell off numerous times, and he never asked them to re-start. All three girls passed. I also did the "circle plank" for extra credit. You would think that if the other girls FELL and passed, I certainly should have passed rigiht? I think he does not want to pass me because at the end I demanded/questioned the things he taught us. I felt like I was behind and did not learrn what the others did. The class was supposed to be seven weeks, but because of his other modeling commitments/cancellations (and his SL WEDDING), it is now week ELEVEN. I want to do other things. I will confess I got a little testy with him at the end because I said, "When did you teach us that." and was not very nice to his pet student, who tried to bully me into doing things. He did nothing to stop her. But I PAID 3500L for this class, and he should deliver on his promise to teach us and folow through with things. My question is, do I have recourse? I don't want him to get away with it. I want my certificate or 3500L back. Even if he reponds after i write this, I really want to tell people that the experience was not a good one. He abused our trust and time. I signed up for another modeling class to start 8/25 at another school. I signed up on 8/8 and paid them 2000L. In other groups, this school posted for enrollment until 8/18. On 8/21, the instructor quit and the owner (not the instructor) of this school closed her school location and said they will be opening in mid-September. I don't WANT to go in September, I chose the 8/25 session because that fit into my schedule. I sent HER a notecard asking for my money back and why. I have not heard from her. Do I have recourse? It seems we should be able to vet Modeling Schools so we don't get taken/scammed. I almost want to report them to Linden Labs but I decided to try here first because I have received good advice from people here :) Anything advice you could give would be appreciated and thanks for listening.
  13. I have a friend who has an alt. This ALT appeared at my HOUSE today. How did this guy find my house? Maybe I am being paranoid and it was just dumb luck that he found me, but Is there a way he can track me? I have checked my picks and none of the locations have my tp to my house. I have never had any friends at my house (just "family" who don't know him), and I banned everybody who is not on the access list. I my own land with my own house. This house is in an open field. I love the spot, and don't want to move, but if he can find me and zoom into my house, I think I may have to move. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you. p.s. I had no idea what category this question is. Forgive me if I posted it wrong...
  14. Is there an issue with Second Life Search? When I search for my Favorite Artists or Venue in Second Life Search, they do no appear. Several people are having this issue. Some are NOT. I have the same issue for Second Life View and FS. Thank you.
  15. I don't sell anything. I just double check in my IM's after I read your post. She is still blocked. This is so very odd. Thank you very much for your help.
  16. On My Transaction History, it says I gave inventory TODAY to somebody blocked over a week ago. I tried clicking on the Transaction ID but nothing happens. How can I find out WHAT I gave this person, and HOW she got it? Thanks.
  17. I'm sorry. I posted under a different name...the log in ID was saved. I put 2nd attempt because the Technical Staff referred me back to here. Also, I tried what you suggested...but it is not STAYIING unblocked. When I log out and back in she is blocked again. This is a known bug...she has something in her name...a strange Unicode from her 3rd party viewer. The bug is at: https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-7550? is the bug. I have a support case but they said they could not do one on one help. But the first technician said to IM a specific person because it had to be manually fixed. And then another technician said they could not do one on one help. I have no idea how to reply to her. Any suggestions you have would be appreciated. I can give you the link to my support case if you need it. Thank you.
  18. Can somebody tell me how to unblock a friend that will not unblock? Over the weekend I posted that I could not unblock a friend. I followed the advice given to me. (Thank you!) To make a long story short, this is a known bug but the technical people referred me back here saying that could not do one on one help. The first person in tech support told me to IM a certain person with the name of my friend. The next day, I got a message from Tech Support saying they would not help me. Tech Support posted a Link to the same place I started. Can anybody please help me? I feel terrible that this friend is blocked. Thank you
