Thank you Lillith. I appreciate the suggestion. As nice as that would be for me personally, this would be a commercial SIM requiring the 20-30k prims.

That's a wise suggestion. I may consider that. Thank you.

Hello everyone! Do you have any recommendations for a good YouTube series, or website or something that is filled with everything I would need to know about how to manage and rent land if I buy a private region? I can't find any good resources on Google, it seems no matter what I search! Ideally I would like both a step-by-step guide to buying the region, how and when to restart, what needs to be checked for performance, other things I need to do to maintain a great place and a guide to renting and estate managing. I'm not trying to become a land baron and get rich. I just want a single SIM that I can use partially and rent the rest. So just the basics. I appreciate any info you may have!! Thank you, Bingo Update: I found the Wiki page. I guess I was hoping for more personal experience walkthrough. but this should do, unless you have personal tips to share! Certainly welcome please

Thank you Whirly!

Hi guys! I am very new to mesh uploading, and am just figuring out all this LOD and Physics stuff. So I need to update Firestorm, but I am so confused. Do I need Havok or OpenSim? Please help! TIA <3

Just to have another opinion, I actually kind of like the wrinkles. It makes the face more believable. I remember noticing wrinkles like this under my eyes in my late teens even. And some girls had lots of them. These aren't old lady eyes at all. It think it is a lovely skin. My personal preference is a narrower bridge as well though.

feeling brainy today

The HUD that came with my Vista head has that option, but not the LAQ one. I do like to be able to position my eyes somewhere other than straight too Rhonda. I will try the Firestorm prefs, thank you Solar!

This HUD is perfect! Thank you <3

Thank you :)!

I found a beautiful snowy scene at La Vie to frame this blue dress by Just Because.

I tried to make one and Facebook didn't like my name. They said "It looks like you're trying to create an account for a business, organization or character. Please create a Facebook Page instead."

Looking good Danni! I was stuck on classic for a long time because I was frustrated with mesh and didn't want to give up my out of date looks. It scared me away from Second Life for a while actually. I did a whole mesh makeover vlog last week (https://youtu.be/NbeEcdZu798) and I'm pretty happy with all of it now. I got the Vista Lia Bento head and I love it. I thought the price was very reasonable and I'm happy with the lips, but I can't really compare since I haven't owned any others yet. The biggest thing that won me over on mesh is finally figuring out that having clothing that is rigged for the correct mesh body is key. I like a smaller chest and I kept buying things that left a giant peekaboo gap so everyone could see down my shirt.

I love that!

I've been using Ice Cream Screen Recorder. I've only had it about a month, but so far I really like it. I didn't know about the Win10 Xbox app. I will have to check that out for the other computer... curious!

Totally agree with both of you. I did end up using the built-in Firestorm AO. It is very easy to use! And I found some great L$10 stands at Kuso. Thanks for all the advice guys!

Brilliant!

Ok, so I shopped Voir and Kuso, and they both have some nice calm animations. Thanks again! I ended up going with purchasing a few stands from Kuso and creating an AO set in the Firestorm viewer. It is really easy to use! The Kuso stands are only L$10 each and I personally preferred them. I just put the walk, run, fly etc from my existing overdramatic AO into this AO set so I still have those. Much happier. Thanks for all the help!!

I did it!! He was totally cool about it too. This is what he had. I admit I didn't focus on him as much as the cute dog, but I remember thinking his AO was nice and calm, not all crazy or macho. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/TuTys-Everyday-Man-AO-Updated-Priority-3-and-4/6613553

Thank you! I plan to check out both this evening hahaha.. you know I did ask him about his dog, so I can find him again in the conversation log. "Excuse me again sir, I basically want to copy everything about you." That's not crazy, right?

You are right. They are so macho! I saw a man with a great calm stand the other day. I should have asked him about it!

"causes zero lag" - awesome! I have admittedly never tried the Firefox AO. I like this idea. Thanks!

Yes, those walks are ridiculous! Lol. Interesting point you make though. So what is the alternative? Just to have the system walk and stand, and then just click on an animation and "play locally" whenever you want to not walk like a duck or stand all goofy? I like the idea of not having to wear the AO, but I just don't know the options I guess. Thanks for the suggestions guys. I will check these out! "Almost still" sounds nice.

hahahaha!! YES Some of the ones with a lot of movements look really cool and all, but I just want to be a lot more subtle... a lot more like real life.

Can anyone recommend a nice natural AO that doesn't move around a lot putting on a performance or looking like a porn star, but just does some nice natural female stands?
