  1. The best way to find that out is just visit the land and check the rent panel. (Hint: I looked at it yesterday and it was)
  2. Sorry if I'm missing something deeper, but mesh feet and shoes are attachments like any other part of an outfit. Just find them in your "current outfit" folder and detach them. Or maybe it's a case of attachments that stay there even after you detach them. I sometimes have that problem with one particular item, and it seems the only way to fix it is to re-log.
  3. Just go to the Maitreya shop inworld and find the Redelivery Terminal at the counter and click it.
  4. When I go to a club I almost always tip the DJ and/or venue, often a 3-figure sum, so of course I would have no problem paying 1 L$ to get in. However it is an obstacle which many people would see as petty and irritating, and do you really want to annoy potential tippers for the sake of 1 L$?
  5. Most modern shoes, certainly all strappy shoes, are designed to fit mesh feet, the main female fits being Slink and Maitreya, and they will not fit standard "system" feet. If you don't want to get a full mesh body, you could just buy mesh feet. The leading brand for stand-alone mesh feet is Slink, who sell feet in the the three popular heel heights of flat, medium, and high, as well as kitten and pointe. The shoes in the picture look like "high". However, a set of Slink feet in the three main heights will set you back over 2,000 L$, which is not too far off the cost of a full mesh body. (I notice in the marketplace some much cheaper "Slink-compatible" feet, but it would be very difficult to get a good skin match with them.) These days most people who care about their appearance wear a mesh body, so it might be worth your while considering that option. If you do buy a mesh body, you would still have option of just using the feet while keeping the rest of your system body.
  6. Appliers are the mesh-body equivalent of system layer clothes, and are used for skin, makeup, tattoos, and skin-tight clothes like underwear. For a Maitreya Lara body, you can use Maitreya appliers or Omega appliers. Omega appliers are compatible with nearly all mesh bodies but you usually need to also have the Omega relay for your body, in your case the Maitreya system kit. When you want to wear an Omega applier, attach the Omega relay then click the applier HUD, which paints the applier on your body, where it stays until you clear it (in the layers page of your Maitreya HUD) or replace it. In the picture I'm wearing this: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/SD-Vintage-Blouse-Lace-Pack-with-Appliers-11-Colors/9648988 You are very welcome, and thank you! (P.S. Yes, appliers are an awkward way to simply wear clothes, but the good news is that there is new technology on the way which will allow us to wear system layer clothes on mesh bodies, but it seems it will probably be next year before we can start using it)
  7. Would you consider an applier top? They don't have the realistic detail that a mesh top would have, but at least they are guaranteed to work beneath a jacket and skirt. Here is one worn by me (though I know it's not the type of suit you want): Rigged mesh clothes are connected to the avatar skeleton; they respond to skeleton shape adjustments like height and hip width but not to soft-tissue adjustments like bum/breast size, so they are usually available in a set of standard sizes, S/M/L etc., and you can adjust your body shape to fit the clothes. Fitted mesh clothes are rigged too, but they do respond to soft-tissue size adjustments. However since each mesh body has its own idea of what big/small means, fitmesh clothes are always designed for a particular body type. It is usually possible to wear rigged mesh clothes on a mesh body by adjusting your body shape to fit, which is exactly what I'm doing with the jacket and skirt above.
  8. I do see one reason why not. If you are living inside the sphere, you will probably want to see a sky/stars texture on its inside surface, which as far as I know is not possible with a prim, which will always appear transparent from the inside.
  9. You could try the Slink Petite chest add-on, which is designed to replace the breasts on Slink female bodies. I don't see it in the marketplace, but they do have it in their shop.
  10. Could you not just make a prim sphere, which would have a LI of 1?
  11. Notecards don't support tables. And even using spaces to pad text into columns is unreliable as the norm is for people to use proportional fonts and the fonts vary. You could create an image of a table and embed that in the notecard as a texture, but of course that is not a great solution for text content.
  12. Your rezzer is probably designed to hand out copies to the public at a fixed location. What you want is a normal copiable boat, which you can rez from inventory whenever you crash, at the nearest rez-zone. There is a script available free from Rubber Bunny which you can add to a modifiable boat, which reports its location to you if it detects that you have been thrown out, so that you might be able to recover it, but a lot of the time after a crash the boat's scripts are messed up so you would be better rezzing a fresh copy anyway.
  13. Practically all boats are copiable, except demo versions. One of the main reasons being that crashing and losing your boat is so common that all you need to do is rez another copy and start again. However, you might be lucky and get it returned to you, in the Lost & Found folder in your inventory. There are quite a few good-quality boats available for free, so nobody should have to rely on no-copy demos.
  14. Justin Bieber got successful when I dumped all over his breakfast
  15. So, since Jenny did not have those buttons to start with, they had to be added for the head-alone version, and maybe things got a bit confused and the the non-demo got messed up. I doubt very much that they really intended to have invisible "buttons" on the HUD, unlike apparently all other Altamura heads. Given the comments about the quality of support from the CSRs, they could be just as confused about it as anybody else.
  16. Those buttons are visible on the Giselle HUD as well (at least the free one from last December). They don't appear on the head HUD for Valentina, but since that is a full-body (head and body in one) they would not be needed. Am I right in thinking that Jenny was originally a full-body too?
  17. Here it is: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/OSITO-Pencil-Skirt-Charcoal-MESH/5327855 You are absolutely right to be picky. The effort we put into assembling our outfits really pays off when we eventually get exactly the look we want.
  18. Something like this maybe: Here is the white version on the marketplace: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/mon-tissu-Collared-Shirt-White/4769871 The shirt in the picture is designed to look as if it is tucked in but in fact overlaps the skirt waistband. Wearing a genuine slim tucked shirt so that the waistband remains on the outside is not easy, as you will most likely see either interference between the two garments or a giant gap at the waist. However, what you can do is wear one of the items in a fitmesh size and the other in a standard (S/M/L etc.) size and adjust your shape until it looks right: the fitmesh item will adapt to your shape while the standard item will stay the same size. I wrote a post about that issue last year. Another option would be to wear a one-piece outfit that looks like a matched shirt and skirt. I have things like that but not in this style.
  19. Altamura have a nails applier creation kit, free at their shop, if I remember correctly. Edit: Yes, I even have it in my inventory!
  20. Oh wow, what did you win? Execution by firing squad?
  21. ... and some are only partly Omega-compatible. For example, they might not take Omega skins, or parts of the body like the feet and hands might take Omega skins but nothing else. The body makers might be coy about these things, but the Omega relay's marketplace description would usually point them out.
  22. I tested another two boats from different makers in the last few days, both offering demos of at least an hour - just go to the maker's yard, admire the lineup, hop on one you like the look of, and go (if you know how :-) ). I bought one of them.
