How will the Khronos group monetize their investment? I am always very cautious about things marked 'royalty-free'. It is usually code for 'we'll get you when you're hooked'.

I decided to stay young. Sorry.

Not reading all this, it occurs to me that I'm older today than I have ever been before. Wow. (that's a period, not an exclamation)

To save me reading the 24 pages on this since it hit last week, is there a synopsis of it anywhere? Or do I plan a move to <insert Meta or Chinese crap of choice>?

Complex mesh items should just publish their API (or whatever the equivalent is in SL speak) so we can make changes with chat commands, would be quite nice and reduce the need for certain HUDs that we're all told to not keep attached but most of us do anyway.
The very best solution of all. We could even have an after-market in 'better' huds. Hey, LL, make it a rule!

On the Maitreya HUD all I want to access are the alphas due the irritating auto-alpha function built-in to many clothes. If I could save alpha sets within the Maitreya body and export them to a single alpha attachment then that would be of benefit.
...
This is why I will not buy no-mod clothes containing the pre-V5 autoalpha for Maitreya. Even popular (and now defunct) Blueberry was still doing it. The V5 autoalpha allows the user to mod the alpha cuts without the clothes having to be mod. Still best not to buy no-mod clothes though.

I visited BumbleBee for the first time today. And demoed a few things. I like the clothes, but the HUDs...
... quarter-screen sized and non-resizable.
I've moaned to several stores about this.
Stop covering up the very thing I'm trying to dress!!!!.
I wish SL viewers would let us have the HUDs on a separate window.

And why do I have the feeling that BumbleBee is more linked to Addams?
I hadn't visited BumbleBee before today, and did so because of the attention here. Nice clothes sure, but I agree they are copying some elements of both BlueBerry and Addams. It is a pretty basic store (thank goodness). The prices seem very in line with Addams/Blueberry. I didn't, in the end, buy anything, as nothing jumped out as being better that what I already got, but I will monitor it as a replacement for Blueberry in the future.

I like to make my skins different from the 'perfect features' of most skins. I won't pay the 700-900 that the skinners want to charge for a head either. I did shell out for a Modelesque Velour body skin, because I love the tummy, but my head has a freebie. Then I add all sorts of BoM add-ons, mainly from Izzie's, to put in the freckles, creases, veins, and spots.
So my take on your head is 'great', whichever one you want. I like the cuts, they add character.

Nova, of course, it's actually why I bought my name! But recently Billie too. I have 6 EvoX heads plus Cate from the pre-Evo range. I won't go back from EvoX now though.
My alt uses Nuri, which I find is better for North African features than Briannon, at least from my Slavic perspective

Since the "average" female height worldwide is around 5'3", and everyone wants to be RL height, they need to consider the average female weight also. That is 170lbs. Seems to me, the larger behind would be more natural or at least, more in keeping with RL statistics. Amirite?
I give in! You are right.

I think what this thread teaches us is that we are all different, both in shape and opinion. I apologize to Rowan and others if my opinion annoys them.
The best advice I ever got when I started into this was 'demo, demo, demo', and 'no demo, no sale'.

I tried Reborn and Legacy Perky as replacements for Lara Petite. I'm pretty handy at the old shape sliders and prepared to use deformers too, but the reborn body cannot be made as thin as I want, you will always have a huge unnatural butt. Legacy Perky is very close to what I was aiming for, and I now use it a lot, but it still cannot escape the SL fascination with huge asses.
For a small ass, small boob avatar with a big range of top-quality clothing you cannot beat LaraX Petite, in my opinion.
If you don't mind making your own BoM-alpha add-ons to control body breakthrough, then check out Lucybody Vania - it's a small boob, small butt, almost Lara-compatible, low-cost BoM-only body. Grab the rest of the Lucybody demos while you are there.

There is, thus, the possibility that 'our' SL Blueberry has received a 'cease and desist' order on the use of 'their' name. All sorts of plots come to mind. No doubt we'll find out one day (Soontm)

oops mistake. Sorry.

There must be many thousands of dollars sitting in gift cards,...
I have to admit that the one thing I did this morning was to go and spend the last few L$ in my store account.
I think it's worth noting that, according to her profile, the SL store was Sophia's RL job, so this must be something pretty serious in her life.

The Blueberry Discord seems to have disappeared too. Very unhappy about this myself, I usually bought everything there.

I have a few Alts, and I use ProtonVPN to get to a Californian Exit node. I am, in fact, an Alt of my first SL existence, which I retired long ago. When I say 'retired', I mean I don't use it seriously any more, but it is still extant and I try to remember to log in once every solar eclipse or so... I also have an Alt that I specifically created to stop my parked yacht from being auto-returned, he is a minimal impact transparent blob. Another Alt I have is to use in the beta grid to test things out.
Good VPNs and sensible Alts are good. Paranoia is daft. (Except that I know the Brutish Misgovernment is out to get me....)

Maybe if you can't afford to live from your RL earnings in SL, then you should consider working somewhere else, maybe in RL. I am not paying any more than the 50 UK that I invest every month, that's all I can afford, and it's all the SL economy is getting from me. The whole enjoyment of SL would cease if I have to consider the exchange rate on everything. It's sad that you have chosen to make your RL living in this artificial economy, but it's not my fault.

A new "free last name" to replace "resident" for new accounts.
"Tourist"
You then get ONE free name change to "Resident" when you reach your first rez day anniversary.
What you said, except that for Males it's 'D'Head'.
