"Hard to believe but it’s been almost exactly 5 years to the day that MOLiCHiNO closed its doors in SL. The day was August 16, 2015 and it was a sad day indeed. Aurelia Chauveau worked so hard creating some of the best women’s fashion in SL. " Read more on the blog.

"So get this. My best friend who lives in Edmonton, Alberta (that is in Canada), gave me a call last week and told me to come visit her. Since it is summer, I figured why not, let us have a nice little vacation, me and Pouch (my little baby dog). So we kiss Claus goodbye and hop in the van. Beautiful trip, no issue. After a while, I decided to get out of the van to drink a bit of water and look at the map to see where I was. And poof! Mother Nature decides to play a trick on me and blows my map away! All I have to say is thank God for the GPS on my cell phone!" Read more on the blog.

"Although I finished letting you know about the fun things at Sanarae, there is still this really cute outfit I fell in love with and wanted to show before the round ends. It’s by Dolly Daydream and it’s also a reminder to get over there before the round changes over. You haven’t got too much longer so, what do you say?" Read more on the blog.

"Good morning, Gosh it feels like a long while since I blogged. I have been having computer issues for some time which my computer becoming slower and slower, stalling…all kinds of horrors. So last week I ordered a new tower and it arrived on Monday! It’s taken me a few days to get it set up and while I was able to transfer a lot of things from the old computer to the new one there is still the issue of having to remember log ins and download programmes etc." Read more on the blog.

"I was enjoying the blues at Bray’s Place (my new favourite hangout on the grid) and idly checking out what the other avatars were wearing (using the handy free What Is She Wearing? HUD) when I discovered a model of Bento mesh head that I hadn’t encountered before, from a company called META. And it’s a real bargain if you are looking for a Bento, Bakes on Mesh-compatible female mesh head!" Read more on the blog.

"STORYLINE: The Wasp Virus was raging in the Mainframe. Highly developed Cyborgs were locked in hibernation mode. How would the mail get through? Enter an unexpected hero… an old series Solares Cargo Drone. It would be up to little drones keep things running until the contagion could be purged from the system." Read more on the blog.

"Myra Wildmist started an interesting discussion on what virtual photography really is and if it is so different from, let’s say, real-world photography (since she refers at some point to Wikipedia, I’d notice that what she calls virtual photography is classified by the free online encyclopedia rather as in-game photography – but, yes, photography). The subject came out of some unnecessary and impolite comments that she had received on Flickr and that she brilliantly transformed into the starting point for an enlightening reflection, to which I’d like to contribute here with my two cents."

"Oram Solis’ “Kindly Brutal” is an epic illustration of the dramatic story-telling power of depth-of-field. Usually, the subject, the person, is the focus in sharp detail and the rest is obscured, but in this picture, the gas pump is in detail and the person is blurred as they enter the store, presumably to pay. But why is he blurred?" Read more on the blog.
