The easiest way to get an answer to your questions is to do as a couple of us have suggested:  call the Linden Lab Billing Office and ask.  This is a resident-to-Resident Answers service.  Lindens rarely come here, so you are getting well-informed but "unofficial" advice from us.  The phone call is free and the billing office people are friendly and helpful. 

I understand this is nothing official, but it'd be extremely helpful if someone here can confirm that this was or was not an error from LL, maybe based on their own experience. Calling the Labs is not that viable an option for me as my ISD charges alone will exceed 7 USD as I live outside US/Canada. Thank you both for trying to help.

The land holdings never had to do anything with group. All I did was buy the the 1024 and sell it.

Thank you everyone for answering

You are always charged for the land fees that you owned on any land that you owned at any time during a billing period.  Your current land holdings are 0.0 sq m., but if you owned more than that at any time between July 23 and August 23, you are responsible for paying the land fees on it.  The billing office has apparently tried to charge your billing method and failed, so you'll have to call and talk with them about it. 

I owned no more than a 1024 sqm parcel while I had a premium membership until the first week of August  and never had to pay it because my land holdings always were within the the allowed free tier. Do such land fees include fees for the 1024 sqm land at additional land holdings fee rate for 1024 sqm (7 USD) ? The failure in charging is because I had disconnected my PayPal account from billing methods and that should be easily fixed as the dues will be cleared when I sell convert lindens to USD for a payout.

If the only Mainland you owned was a 1024 sq m. parcel, you should not have been charged $7.00. 

I'd appreciate some clarity on this if possible, please. Are you sure ? Only mainland I owned before downgrade was a 1024 parcel ( never more than that) within the free tier and that is why I doubt the validity of 7 USD ( fees for 1024 sqm additional land) as maintenance fees. All I did was sell that land before downgrading.

 

It'd be reassuring if someone can confirm that they were charged for the land holdings within free tier after downgrading the account. I can safely assume that this is the LL policy and I won't be charged the same again next month as the land holdings start at none for the new month. The fact that 'next billing date' is still active and is set for 23rd of September is what makes me unsure about it.

I recently downgraded my premium account to basic, hence there are no mainland holdings. I used to own a 1024 sqm mainland parcel which was sold before I downgraded to basic. I was charged 7 USD on 23rd August (yesterday) and my account has a USD balance of USD -7.00 now. Is this supposed to happen? I see 'Next bill date: 9-23-2018' on the Land Holdings section on my Account Summary page, does this mean that I'll be charged 7 USD again next month?

 I'm meaning stick the set in one box rather than a box per brand.

No boxes, just skins (wearable items) inside a folder.

Please don't sell them individually ... it's a huge pain in the butt to change body and then have to track down alternate version skins

There are decent number of image conscious customers (those who dont want nails painted on their toes) too... I have to keep their interest. BTW, my skins will only be made for a few full mesh avatars with SL UV maps, not head and body match ups and neck blenders and whatnots.

Can't say I predicted this.. but this doesn't surprise me in the least. I'm sure all the image-conscious skin makers are considering this. There's a healthy number of creators who ONLY want their stuff to appear on certain meshes. And even the folks who aren't so exclusive minded know they are going to be blamed when people try to use Bakes on mesh on stuff like hands and feet and this happens:

Frankly, skin makers are going to have to rush to get new system skins out that have the Mesh Friendly Textures on them. 

I don't know about all but I consider myself as one of those of those image conscious  skin makers and that is why I never wanted to put my system skins on every mesh body using some "universal " applier. With BoM, all I have to do is make separate system skins and put specific avatar brand name on each. I suppose costumers who go through the pain of figuring out applier systems will appreciate only having to find the skin item for your particular avatar in a folder.

Because we won't still be able to apply textures using HUDs.

Really? I thought BoM is not going to break anything that's already working and certainly not 'putting texture on a face'.

[Bakes on Mesh Feedback Thread]

I've been reading the topic since it came up on the forum and just watched the last creators meeting video. I can understand the applier systems and applier makers trying to save their business but come on now! you can still apply textures using HUDs right..whats the big deal? Appliers were a necessity but not anymore so I hope the dilemma of applier systems won't stop LL from 'taking another step forward' (please overlook the irony of backward compatibility also, avatars are anything that's attached to the skeleton (i guess) and not necessarily generic male and female avatars and certainly not just something with SLUV maps. For the record, I used to make skins for SL before mesh and appliers became a thing and am excited about BoM making it finally possible to make avatar textures available again with system layers without middlemen, so there's my not so hidden agenda! Will keep my fingers crossed to the next official announcement.
