I got the new update and am very pleased with the way they fixed the dimples. Question: Do I need to use a skin specifically made for Lara X or can I use the one that I have for 5.3. I'm using the Picasso Babe Skin for Maitreya 5.3 (SLIM/CHANTILLY) S Also the shape is different when I switch. I assume I'll need to tweak the shape on Lara X to get it to look the way I want it to?

Depends on the laptop. Just because your laptop meets the requirements to run SL it may not meet the requirements to run SL well. It would be helpful to know what the specs are on the laptop.

Oh! How did I miss that they updated it. I'll go get it now and see if I like it better. I do like a round butt! Thanks Orwar!

What price is it now?

Might help if you say what viewer you are using.

Interesting that you should say that. IF they had named it a new body and released it do you think that as many of the creators would have stopped rigging for Maitreya 5.3? It's beyond me why creators would stop rigging for the most used and popular body out there for a whole new body. Yes, I get that it's easier to rig for but to make a complete dump of a body because there is a new one out that is crazy to me. I can't notice a difference in the bodies except that the dimples on the butt are craters and I hate that. I'd never wear it with clothes that showed that part of the body. I have made one concession and have started buying clothes that are rigged for both. That way If for some reason I will be forced to change I'll have built up a wardrobe. I also don't understand the mentality of just deleting all your Maitreya outfits or not caring if there is a redelivery and having to buy the same outfit again. It seems that some people don't see L's as real money and just don't care. I'm on a very limited budget so I hardly delete anything unless it was a free gift and god awful ugly. I would hate to decide down the road to get a legacy body and find out that I deleted thousand of L's in clothing I'd never thought I'd use or any of the bodies really. I've recently updated my head to an Evo X head and am finding that a lot of the hair just doesn't look good on it. Very disappointing. I've fiddled and fiddled with it and sometimes what looked good on my LAQ head looks terrible on the Evo X head. That's my .02 cents on it. If I've learned anything in SL I've learned people are going to do exactly what they want to do no matter what? If it makes you happy and you are happy with the look who is anyone to say it's wrong.

Can I join?

Let's all be honest here. No one actually wants to join the private Bureau of Bureaucracy. What everyone is upset about is that they aren't allowed to join it.

The off topic posts were anything but community building. More like tearing each other apart. People couldn't play nice and that's why we don't have that option anymore.

If you posted a link in a group chat I wouldn't even click on it. You've used the word "stupid" twice in this post. I'd ignore you too. Mentioning residents by name is not a slightly violation of the TOS. It's a direct violation. Yes I've fallen victim to these types of people. It's called life. At least here you can block them unlike RL where you have to put up with them.

Well after working on this for 14 hours straight I got something I think I might like. I made the skin lighter which made a huge difference. Again any feedback is welcome! and yeah looks nothing like the picture but I got tired of trying after I followed the style card to the T and it didn't work.

I am trying to get this look. I bought everything on the style card and followed the instructions but the first picture is what it is turning out to be. I am not sure how to fix this. My previous head was LAQ but there is so much more out there for this type of head I thought I'd upgrade. The skin I intentionally made darker as I don't like the porcelain look. Also the pictures with the eyes and the dots in them I have no clue how to fix that. Any help would be appreciated!

Ah ok. I think having a fresh set of numbers everyday is coming very close to the line. If they changed every hour that would be better but to have to wait a whole day is a bit much. I'd probably forget about it by then. LOL

So does "your" next stay the same until you purchase it? Or does it randomly change when someone else makes a purchase?

No, I assumed that was optional.

So I was looking at a style blog on the forum and saw a shirt I liked that was being sold at The Arcade Event. The setup is a nightmare but while I was there I saw Gacha machines that didn't have what was available "next". It has the Gacha machine for an item of $L50 or $L75 and then most have a box with the entire set available at a high cost. It was my understanding that Gacha machines that didn't show you what was next were banned. I might not be looking at the machines correctly but for the life of me I couldn't figure out what item I were to get if I paid the Gacha price. Has anyone been to this event? Am I misunderstanding how the machines are supposed to be setup? I can't imagine a whole event being set up with banned gacha machines so I'm wondering if I'm missing something.

I don't think this is allowed. I got a message just insinuating someone was another forum member and I didn't even use names.

The first thing I would check is if there is still interest in this type of RP. I haven't heard a lot about it lately but I'm not in the scene either. Would hate for you to go through all the work and there be no one interested in joining.

I didn't say blocking was mean spirited but one doesn't need to post that they are blocking or continually blocking someone on the forum. Would that not be the same as engaging with them. If you want to block someone don't respond to any of their posts or what's the point?

This is why a garbage section won't work. Was it really necessary to post on the forum your continued intent to block another member? That's simply mean spirited. Also most of the people that used to start all the political posts aren't even participating in this thread. I'm probably one of the few that was very happy with the change. What exactly are you going to promote as the forum is now just for resident support? I see this as becoming a disaster but shrugs, go for it.

Is anyone else getting this? This is from two different stores.

Let's say that I was in one of those videos. I didn't give my permission to post it on YouTube. I file a DMCA. How in the world would YouTube know that I am the owner of that avatar and it's content theft? Maybe I'm just an avatar that has my own videos and want theirs to go away. I don't see this as being successful at all and if that were me I'd be pissed if someone filed a DMCA to take down a video without having to show proof. I doubt YouTube is going to sign into SL to verify that indeed the content was stolen. I'm not even sure it's copyright infringement.

I'm not sure. I also do that but I'm talking about putting avatars on your blacklist forever. It really reduces stress. Block and de-render and they do not exist any longer.
