I have already begun encouraging my friends to make e-mail addresses based purely on our AV's (i.e. no RL info at all), so we can keep in touch, and migrate somewhere else if necessary. I think I'm being paranoid though. But if SL does go against adult content, I'm sure there will be someplace more than willing to accept our community!!!

I hope so!!! I don't actually understand why someone from my community would want to set up shop in a G area.I don't even like to go somewhere G unless it's a store, and even then I'm leery. I prefer marketplace anyways.I can keep track of my purchases. My friends and I are enjoying living our fantasies, and have no intention of involving anyone who doesn't want to be. Just like in any community though, there are the good and the bad.

I don't interact with child AV's, so that is a non issue for me. I'm more worried about adult content.

Thanks!!! I was looking at a black pair of those earlier. I just love them, and now I'll probably have to buy 2 pairs lol!!!

Could you send me the link?

Removing Adult content would be a very poor move imho. Look at Markeplace, and how much "A" content there is to buy. The sudden destruction of our segment of the population would cause financial losses. I certainly would leave, and so would a lot of my friends, both male and female.

Thanks Bree!!! I definitely want to say away from PG!!! I do prefer A though.

Got some Demos!!!

I forgot to set notify me of replies lol!!!

Thanks!!! I would have to figure out security settings. I guess leaving it closed most of the time.

I rented a nice skybox, and I had issues with it, so the owner returned my $L. I need to get a decent one to take my clients to. I'm an Escort, so I don't earn enormous amounts, and have to split the income between maintaining myself and a rental. It has to be in an "A" region obviously. Preferably properly furnished. Any suggestions anyone???

Cassie's looks very photorealistic, and this is what I'm trying to achieve. Now you guys gave me a starting point. Thanks!!!

I also couldn't login. That was scary, because it made me worry about my account being hacked. Seems OK now though!!!

My biggest question is how everyone controls the background lighting, and achieves such realistic textures. I have Maitreya with the Bento Rebel head, and it looks OK, but I want better. And maybe I need a new skin. I attached a quick shot that use for my outfit folder so everyone has an idea.

It would be impossible for my clients dictate all of my looks. They like different things, and they fall into groups of what they like to see me in. That would be very poor marketing on my part to stay totally with one outfit look. I maintain my basic appearance, because i want to be recognized quickly and consistently. Of course when I'm paid, I'll look like anything they want, but I've never been asked to change (other than getting naked). I'm a fashionista, so I like to show off my outfits, and I've been randomly paid by guys just for asking their opinions on my different clothes with no sex involved. I never ask for money for a fashion show, because they're helping me. No one would get very far with telling me to permanently stay with a look. They would be immediately blocked!!!

I totally understand this. I have a Demoness appearance that I only have 1 outfit for. I won't change it because I wan't it to be consistent. A very good furry friend always wears the same thing, and I suspect it's for the same reason. I'll ask her when I'm inworld later on today, but still, that would only be one person's opinion. I DO change outfits a lot, but that's because I have to appeal to all kinds of tastes. I won't change my face or body though. Any hairstyle also has to work within the limits of my long blonds hair. My point is that we all seem to choose a particular "look," and work within that, whether human or not. Alts are a way around that for some. As for prudishness, it makes me sick to my stomach!!!

Please everyone, don't dislike us because we are human. We all need to judge of course, but we should judge a person by their personalities. I came to SL roughly four months ago, and had no idea that prejudices exist on both sides. I'm actually shocked!!! I've experienced a bit of that because I'm an Escort, but that's my fantasy. Aren't we all here to be what we won't or can't be in RL???

Sorry!!! You are totally correct on that!!! I guess I'was too eager to help.

Thanks so much!!!

Thanks!!! I haven't tried a BOM garter belt yet. I have Maitreya. Any suggestions??? Obviously PM or IM me so we don't violate the TOS.

Honestly, your best bet is to put it out free at first as a promotion. You have some very serious competition. Once we have an established wardrobe, we won't switch, because it's time consuming, and a learning curve. I think with some addons yours could become popular.

Thanks to all of those who provide free clothes. When I first came on, I got cheated with empty boxes, and couldn't afford to put any more RL $ into SL. Free clothes got me going as a sub first, and had more clothes paid for. Now I Escort, and can afford to get high quality clothes. Free or low price doesn't always mean bad quality. What it does do, is get the SL economy working!!!

When i first came on SL, I bought a pair of gold peeptoe pumps.They were for slink feet. Since I've gotten Maitreya, I prefer to stay with the standard. Those shoes looked "gold", but I've bought more shoes since, with colour huds, but yellow doesn't do it. Anyone know of anywhere to get a simple pair of gold peeptoes on MP??? PM me, or IM me inworld so we don't violate the TOS!!!

I wear mesh, but I can certainly see the advantages of an applier.Especially for a garter belt, as there would be no pokethrough with a skirt or dress. Mesh does limit our outfits that way.

This could be the reason I don't become involved in any relationship in SL other than friendships. The exception, of course, is sex. Escorts don't get involved with their clients. That would be unprofessional.
