    I am just trying to figure out how to get a texture BOM'd to the eyes.

    The eyes in the HUD are applier eyes.  Every time you turn ON BoM, you turn OFF the applier eyes.  If you want old style system eye (BoM), use NO alpha and then turn on BoM.  Whatever system eyes you are currently wearing will then show perfectly fine.

    Most places that sell eyes sell both types in their packs.  They include an applier and the system eyes.  Often, they also include their own mesh eyes.  Ignore those.

    People who like to have eyes with one color on one and another on the other, will use applier.  Can't really do that with BoM.

    I fear Entice will now be added to this list.  They announced in the past couple days that the store will be closing due to Kira Paderborn being diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.   She helped clothe a lot of a newbies over the years, and her advent calenders were quite nice.

    I also miss Ivey Deschanel and Sn@tch (who died of cancer). She was another one who was more than happy to clothe newbies, and people LOVED her fishing outfits.  Many of her system layer clothes still look great for BOM. 

    Then there's Squinternet Larnia who made some absolutely STUNNING jewelry. Her store (Donna Flora) is still in world, but she passed away.  It's so kind of her friends to keep her store open.

    And I think perhaps the GOAT of stores/creators is Ginny Talamasca, owner of Last Call.  She passed away in 2008, the same year I joined, but I remember a lot of talk about how fabulous her clothing was and how they couldn't bear to delete it. I seem to recall that I bought a clothing item at a yard sale that was Last Call (apparently created before people went hard on no-transfer items).  

     

     

    Donna Flora was a favorite of mine early on, too.  Although most of the pieces I purchased back.then were no copy, they were also transfer so I was able to move.them from my first avatar to my current one.  It did make editing a much more nerve racking task, though.

    And that's what we are doing throwing around opinions. Personally I've never AR'd an edge case in the past. I doubt I would now unless I saw them doing the dirty and their profile stated underage.  I would however ask them to leave if I were policing an adult venue... just as I've done in the past.

    People that present on the edge have more to worry about if they are getting up to no good in IM if someone does decide to AR them though.  Really though if they aren't breaking rules they have nothing to worry about if they are on the edge but say they aren't and their IM's support that.

    Those pictures Rowan posted I see at least 4 "teens" there that don't look much different than in the picture thread this one was in response too... that's why we like to throw around opinions.  

    The people who see and understand are the ones asking about their own avatar.  What some people claim  "we all.should know!  Read the ToS" don't seem to grasp is...that whole line he keeps pasting?  We've all read the dang thing many times, ffs.  

    In some cases there may be an element of subjectivity as to whether an avatar (or other image) appears to be a minor. Objective factors which will be used to decide include whether an avatar has childlike facial features, is child-sized, has clothing or accessories generally associated with children, and whether, based on the circumstances, an avatar is speaking or acting like a child ("My Mommy says...").

    If it's just one such as childlike facial features OR size OR clothing, what might be the deciding factor with their own avatar?  Is my face adult enough to  wear pigtail even though I'm small breasted?  My face is kind of youthful looking so maybe not this particular dress AND hair?   Is it one of those objective features, 2 or 3 that LL will use to decide?  Can I be shorter and slimmer but not be considered a child even if I wear hair ribbons and call my boyfriend Daddy?

    In my experience, most people do want to follow the rules.  The ones who don't won't care what anyone thinks anyway.

    Good, stay out of Adult areas and behave if you're wearing a child avatar, thanks. You enjoy your insular SL too.

    Why are you buying avatars marketed, marked and artistically styled to represent child avatars, and try to use them as adult?

    pwned

    People actually make.their own shapes that resemble those.  So, they ask "What is it about my avatar that might make.people think it's under 18.".   

    They are concerned.that someone MAY think they're too young for an adult region or file an AR because they think that.  Of course, LL might see them as adult so a non-issue but if it were me, I'd want to avoid getting tossed out of a region in the first place.

    Those examples are 'child avatars' as they are advertised as such.

    If in doubt stop being a pervert  while sporting avatars that you are worried about, or enjoy getting banned. Read the TOS.

    And THOSE are the edge cases that we're discussing because those do show up in adult situations

    Those are also looks that people use  as adult in non-adult situations.

    At this.point, I'll concede to what others have said.  We're being trolled and although highly amusing, I'm now rolling my eyes so much I have a headache.

    Please do enjoy your insular SL.

    More child avatars.. Its too f'ing bad some perverts even have to ruin this for everyone as in a more innocent time this wasn't a big deal and was pretty cute!
    But if you 're going to be paranoid about this,  you're just wrong! Here's so more just in case you can't figure it out.

    Don't ban me these are pictures from the SL marketplace LOL

    No I wonder about people like you, sooooooooooooooooooooo worried that they have to participate in 1000 post long topics, and STILL doesn't know what a child avatar is.

    You keep posting female avatar with massive boobs - and keep trying to gaslight people into thinking they're supposed to be 'child avatars', you're losing it.

    Comedy gold!

    Anyway, you didn't answer my question.  

    BTW, females under 18 have boobs, in case you were unaware.

    You don't know, so you have to ask me?
    It's just a picture. LL said it will take the entire 'presentation' and behaviours that the user is doing to determine if the avatar is bein g 'presented' as a child. If in doubt, stay out of A areas.

    And that's why people are asking for opinions.  Sometimes I just wonder about you.

    If you saw that avatar in adult region, engaged in adult activities while holding a lollipop and a teddy bear, what would you say?  Child or adult?  Simple question.

    Let's go another 1000 posts. Second Life Forumers still can't tell what a child is or what an adult is. Those who read the TOS and the Child Avatar Policy (which I'm done linking to because people clearly REFUSE to read it) will have no problem.

    This is mainly about very young child avatars 1-14, those before maturity and before curves and breasts develop (that creates the edge cases) - as clearly stated in the Policy

    "The entire presentation will be considered, for example in addition to other characteristics, are you saying "Hey Mommy can I pweez have ceewee-ull? Pweeze Mommy?"

    Look forward to more confused and deluded paranoid posts on this issue.

    Omgoodness hahaha, not a child! All i see is boobs! And you won't get banned over an Environmental Light setting HAHAHAHH

    Which is this...child or adult?

    Oh, I totally agree with that. But I just want to hear what she would do. How she would tackle this, if she A suspected a person who had a youthful look coming in and B how would she make it far easier to distinguish child avatar and adult avatar? 

    Not one single person, not even LL, can answer this question.  There is no EASY way which is why this thread exists.  Each person sees things differently in respect to age

    I would wear that at the club I go to. Most nights have themes but a lot of people come casual or wearing regular clothes.

    Everything I wear in the pictures I post here are outfits I wear to clubs, adult and moderate.  Almost never do I have T&A hanging out but I don't look like anyone's grandma either.  Tasteful is a word I use for how I dress.  Tacky is how I describe a lot of what I see.
