In order to make the 2048 parcels enticing a few things need to happen. more variety of house themes within a region. As much as I love Victorians etc., the regions start to become monotonous, and not interesting because there is no variety like in real life., Do this on a few regions to test and see if this is appealing. Obviously not all themes would work but there are are themes that are compatible. You could pair Traditionals with Victorians for example. Log cabins and maybe something like ranches.... It would be amazing if there parcels came with water access ie docks, a cove, inlet, cay whatever. It is disappointing to have your house on the beach next to water, and not be able to rez in the water because of property boundaries. Making these homes with access to the ocean like the Black sea regions, would make this extremely desirable.There is a large boating community that this would appeal too, that may currently not be participating in Linden Homes. If LL is looking to increase their revenue stream they should be taping into this. Houses that are better quality then are currently available. I love the Sakura theme but the quality and repetitiveness of the houses is very disappointing, as where the Chalets. The Victorian regions when released where amazing, the landscaping as well as the house options, you could really see there was attention to detail in both the houses and surrounding landscaping. The attention to detail in the surrounding landscaping has dropped off in my opinion. More open space homes perhaps the ability to rez or derez walls, a more modular approach. It is great to have these wonderful recreational areas, what is not great is the inability to rez anything for even a short period of time, it really limits the use and enjoyment of these areas, perhaps that could be a premium perkfor both plans. I would also like to see a more thoughtful approach when laying out the houses to maximise water front parcels, with 2048 that means less houses on the region allowing for more of that. What we do not want is McMansions that take up the whole 2048 lot, this defeats the whole of having the additional prims to decorate.

I collect bodies as well, Legacy has been my go to, but I really like the soft curves on ebody a bit better. I would pick it up, more and more clothing is being made for it, and it is easy once you have it set up to flip back and forth wor different looks, or to fit an outfit.

More groups is a welcome addition, I am constantly having to leave to make room for others. I would love to see the ability to have two LH's on one account, but even more I would like a higher prim allowance as an option for LH. They can obviously do this as we have regions in Horizons and other areas with a double prim allowance. Group name change would also be an amazing feature, the thought of closing and restarting a new store group is daunting. The ability to change your name as part of PP. would also be of interest, along with increased stipend. Most important to me of all these things would be inventory back up. It is my understanding that are inventory could be backed in a small file on the amazon server. This is supremely important to me, and would be one thing that would guarantee me getting PP.

A friend got this cute little spot, did a summery landscape for them

Hi, I am available to discuss your project to see if I am a good fit for you. Here are 2 examples of my work.

Spring has arrived at Aurelias, with it has come a spring market, full to the brim with goodies to preview, and Easter eggs were strewn across the region with a variety of items to hunt for. P.S.A. little Easter fairy has told me that there are Golden Eggs that will be randomly appearing on Aurelias with surprise items. Will you be one of the lucky ones to find one? Hop on over and get your Easter goodies now. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Aurelias/100/172/26 See gallery here - https://www.aurelias.co/2022/04/aurelias-easter-egg-hunt-spring-market/

This is totally what I envision when you say modern, container style homes. This is beautifully done, and there is a clear aesthetic here. the styling, textures and detailing match the period. Clean lines, spacious floor plan, open windows. I also do not understand why we can not have smaller houses on the 1024 parcel. Not everyone wants a huge house, which we do not have enough prims to decorate with. I love my Linden homes but less rooms open floor plans are what I want. I am perfectly happy with 3 or 4 rooms max. I know some want bigger houses, but can we not have a middle ground where 2 are large and 2 are small?

Thank you we love Gooseberry, and it makes us so happy to hear when others do as well. Welcome, be sure to explore the estate.

I downloaded the drivers and set up joystick configuration, but I have no joy, the movement is terrible, and I can not pan and rotate at all. Can someone tell me if this is set up right and what setting the camera tools should be at please.

I think it is fun, I love seeing how the houses are decorated, there could be some improvements. Perhaps prizes that can only be won for the people hosting the pumpkin, along with prizes for the candies, would encourage more to host. I would like it to be get x amount for most of the prizes, instead the top 100, maybe just do that for the top 2 prizes. As to people saying this is a marketing event, so is Halloween. There is no reason why fun events can not be marketing events for SL, as long as they are fun who cares. I think SL needs its own group or announcement channel, so many people are unaware of the event at all, because they are not on forums. Also exploring the lands made me remember how beautifully landscaped the Victorian sims are, and why I love them. Would really like to see that level of terraforming and décor in the new themes, some are a bit lack luster when compared.
