  1. Hope to see some more Autumn lush pictures to celebrate my favourite time of year
  2. Would be cool to have an Autumn challenge ~ so many beautiful pictures already appearing on Flickr
  3. My favourite time of year Autumn ~ as nature shows off her final glory
  4. Good question as i have Maitreya & was thinking of buy the petit for smaller breasts (but not sure any cloths would fit) some days i think it looks nicer to have small breasts not all these so standard middle to big ~ thanks for asking as i see it seems limited to buy cloths
  5. Hi Laurel. I for sure hope i help someone that has half a brain. I never in my life knew anything so complex but truly my own fault as learning back to front is nearly impossible (although i now know my way around stuff) remember Amber was made as a gift for me & i had little to adjust. If i had made my own & i am strongly thinking of doing so except i have no need for an alt or the expense other than i would know it all ~ all i love is taking pictures but of late i realised i need to use more props as i do portraits & thats makeups tattoos etc ~ this is were i realised BOM had me! Discouraged & overwhelmed is true ~ i am not sure i have enough years left to catch up even! When you grow with a World it is a piece of cake although i have really only begun to learn in the past two months what a Hud is:))) The viewer i was advised is Firestorm. As to were i am currently in my Journey (i stopped as i was totally stressed out lol) i have made my own system of saving outfits and its like my top inventory favourites about 300 & when i want to make a new image i go through them (they are my bible) choose one & make a new outfit of it so i can mess it to pieces and add things etc till i get what i want to take a picture with. I am going to show you how i walked about a few months ago for a week ~ one click did this to her & not one person could help me ~ i actually cried & you will see why ~ everyone said they had never seen anyone make such a mess of a face:))) How i fixed her i will never remember as it took a week and then another week with two slugs on her face as eyebrows ~ appliers & skins i got a fear of & i mean really fear as you will agree when you see this this incident destroyed my own confidence. I show you this picture so that you might understand how bad i am. I also thank you so much so i end on giving you a laugh. Kindest wishes Amber That page of the Hud caused all that in one click as i was trying to save a tattoo ~ i will never use it again even if i was paid:) I am ad a picture of my beautiful Amber as she is today ~ i never felt so alone as i did that day & i could never look at her face like that again i would be sick!
  6. Thank you so much for all your input. As of yet i am learning here also so forgive my reply in one ~ as i have not figured out how to cut and reply to each person ~ the story of my life it would seem. Skell your in dept theory is all so logical ~ in practice i will never have your skills ~ if you saw how i work my inventory of saved items you would laugh but it works & that took me months to get to grips with. I often wonder how i can do anything here but i am going back to the eye balls stage & still thinking of the one fish big time:))) Nalates i think your opening line says it all for me ~ i have never been comfortable & seeing as that is basic to the SL way ~ i am going to declare defeat at this juncture. Lillith your one line gave me a glimmer of light & or hope ~ i feel you guys will not be getting anymore of my amazing ideas as they just keep making it all more complicated ~ my wish will never be realised & the only way to learn is from the beginning not from the most beautiful Avatar gifted to me for my Birthday. I will sleep on this and read all this information another 10 times tomorrow to try and format it in my head which seems to have a mental block Night all stay safe and GB hugs Amber
  7. Hi there.. As you see you are not alone & i am not new to this game. I am stuck at updating & am stepping back as it was really stressing and upsetting me. I have learned one thing ~ going slow one step at a time is the best. You are lucky as when you make an Avatar you will have the BOM that i am not able to understand to get on mine ~ so you are already ahead. Also ask anyone what is the Best head & Body as i did the same as you & bought rubbish:) You will get one head one body and many will help you get there as i am learning this is an amazing kind community ~ btw welcome & you will soon be beautiful
  8. Hi there. I have thought of something that might work for me & still keep my Amber up and running while i perhaps destroy her (laughing) in updating her body & face to latest BOM and move her forward like updating software. I save my outfits so if i just save this one (UPDATE) and work on it when i wish & return to her saved outfits that are still perfect (or are they) so i can carry on day to day life with her in tact. Can this be done as for me my biggest worry is not being able to have her with no going back. This is just an idea and one that came to me ~ i am sure i probably am shooting for the stars on this idea but worth asking as i would go ahead if i knew i had a safety net ~ if not i think i will be eating that fish for just a day:) Kind wishes in hope Amber
  9. Hi Skell. I truly do not think i have read such a kind and thoughtful message ~ it nearly feels as though you know me. Yes i agree with all you say & i am taking your advice as i have been so upset & still am at the not knowing how to do this (i feel like a fish out of water) but so loved your saying as it is so very true ~ the worst gift i was given was Amber made but i feel some wanted me here instead of my other World) sadly no favours for me. You are right ~ i am going to spend time on my learning course & get eyes on ~ little by little so i am not overwhelmed. I am only becoming familiar with this Hud & in understanding it will lead me to next level. You did make me laugh as the basic question and it is ~ in removing head to replace is logical to me but nothing is logic in our World how anyone made it so complex is beyond me (i would need a degree or have begun this adventure when i was 16). Goodness you are CSR and Manager for a head in SL how awesome & you made time here for me ~ i thank you with all my heart you are a gentleman & i hope you have looked at my beautiful Amber the reason i stay ~ she has a personality of her own & is simply beautiful. I will not be shy to ask you a question when i feel ready to try this although the thought of removing her body puts me in terror lmao. It will be a while so do not worry i will not be a pest:) Kind wishes & you truly are amazing ~ Amber
  10. Thank you so much for taking the time to give me personalised detailed step by step. I have myself so upset over this whole thing & been reading all day + tutorials. Words or terms that are common to most are alien to me ~ this is how new i am ~ i have just bought my first pair of eyes & was not brave enough to change them lol... What ever happened to my confidence although a month ago i had little or no understanding of hud ~ i am sad really lol The body sounds easier as i can already imagine Amber with no eyes ~ so i am going to stop thinking and upsetting myself over it ~ its supposed to be fun & if i cannot find this i will leave.I will try the body. I am now tired and will read this without the headache i have given myself & your *Dummies Tutorial* was kindly given to me & that even confused me. Thank you for your time and kindness ~ it is refreshing to see so much solidarity and kindness here.... Kindest wishes Amber Ps. The part that has confused me from get go ~ do i not have to remove Ambers head first to add the new updated version & body. There should be a place were you hire people to do this for you (laughing) i am sure they would make a fortune as i would gladly pay 😝
  11. Dear Laurel. I thank you so much for your time. You did not confuse me at all you are very easy to follow. My head from Lelutka is Bento Mesh Head Chloe. I have read the official manual a few times & honestly do not know how anyone gets it. My Body has not been updated either so neither are BOM capable & i see i will have problems with this as already the example of the Tattoo (the body of that Tattoo had BOM options & a Maitreya one but sadly not for the head) leaving that aside as it is just an example of what i am now up against ~ at least i know the reason. I looked at a Tutorial of BOM it looks easier if that is possible although who would need to use 40 layers lol... I still cannot find any Tutorial on how to update which really would have helped me ~ without this i have no hope of doing it. I wish i had BOM as i am already running into problems but with no step by step for body or head i am lost & i wish i could just close my eyes and have beautiful Amber updated:))) Many times already i have felt overwhelmed but the more i learn the more i see how little i know. You see Amber was a gift (a beautiful gift) but when i began to use her and i mean really use her i saw i had been given no favours as i had to learn backwards almost an impossible task. The though keeps come to me to make a new Amber and begin from scratch but in honesty i feel i will never get it now ~ it has made me actually sad and frustrated also stressed & it should be fun not tears! If i had more time free but sadly everything i do is rushed ~ my biggest love is photographing her ~ she is so beautiful that is my pleasure but makeups are already going BOM so i see myself heading toward a brick wall. I can tell you honestly i won't get it ~ it is like a mental block now and my spirit is low from all i have tried so hard to learn & then i get hit by BOM lol... I came from another World were i was top of my field a huge world but once you taste SL and the beauty there is no going back ~ so now i am stuck in no mans land:( I wish you a very happy weekend ahead & also admire your ability to know all you do and explain it so clearly ~ stay safe Amber
  12. Thank you so much Laurel. I so appreciate your reply & think i asked to many questions in one one post:) I need to start at the beginning on how to update my head & body. All i know is i have them ready to go ~ but i mess up so much i honestly am scared to touch them. Bakes ~ on mesh *BOM* are a long way done the road. I need a youtube Video step Tutorial on how to update (i cannot find one!) as in using the older release i cannot use the Bakes on Mesh sighs ~ i would not put you through trying to guide me at this juncture i need to know to much for anyone person to attempt to talk me through:) Kindest wishes you are very kind ~ Amber
  13. Hi all. I need some advice or a tutorial that talks me through updating my Avatar Lelutka Head & Maitreya Body. I have no experience in this & am now finding many things BOM that i buy eg Tattoos & they are going on my Body as Creators still give basic but they are not going on her head as no option available sighs which renders them useless. Also is this complicated as i seem to find it all so complex. Learning alone is very hard & i have even had to go around with no face on at all for a week (appliers were the problem easy when you know) ~ if it is complex tell me as i will live without the tattoo lol Thanks all and stay safe out there ~ kindest wishes Amber
  14. Hi all ~ by now you all know i love black & white
  15. Shine:) Stay safe and look forward to seeing many more works ~ kindest wishes Amber I prefer black & white but am going with bright & light today:) Stay safe and look forward to seeing many more art works ~ kindest wishes Amber
  16. Stunning art here & love your idea also your art is superb:) Thought i would just say hello and introduce you to Amber ~ i never feel i hit the mark in my pictures but hay it is such a therapy escaping to a world of creativity ~ i love portraits:) I also love the challenge of infusing emotion & fantasy ~ not as easy as it looks with pixels. Here are a few random from recent uploads to Flickr. You all rock ~ wishes Amber
  17. Thank you so much ~ its so easy when you know how ~ sorry for posting in wrong discussion & i am so very grateful ~ back to normal photographs:)
  18. Hi there. I am having problems with my settings. I should have left them alone:))) The Camera now swings around and is left to right very slow ~ not accurate at all. I enclose a picture of my settings perhaps someone could get me back on using my mouse accurately without jump ~ i need to reset these settings to correct and no matter how i try i am just make it worse ~ thank you in advance ~ Amber
  19. Hi there Dorzo. I have seen and bought many ~ all these exact styles Mohawks shaved sides even same colors etc ~ it is a small shop in World. Just type Shi in search and it is the second down (Shi Flagship) even has the earring in your picture:) Sorry i am useless at Links ~ so here is a screenshot ~ enjoy
