i haven't tested it with senra yet but there's a dollarbie simple rigged mesh ears on mp https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/I-Simple-Rigged-Elf-Ears-BoM-Group-Gift/16961378

i'm pretty sure i saw ads for it online (on the tv too i swear) as a kid in the 2000s. didn't join until 2020 because a friend i had on discord was a sl user. they arent very active on sl anymore, but we still talk every now and then on discord.

personally don't like generative-ai, bc of the unethical data sourcing the companies committed to create their ai tools and these companies. I also don't really like the idea of off-loading creativity to machines. however even if AI companies went through ethical routes of data training, i wouldn't touch it bc i'd rather learn and improve skills. i just like the process of creating. NGL i dislike coming across sellers and creators in SL on mp or inworld using ai, but not disclosing it. It's dishonest to costumers, especially when using ai on product photos so they look ultra-realistic (in the gen-ai type of way). the least someone could do is disclose it bc it somewhat comes off as scammerish to not do it. not everyone wants to buy generative-ai stuff.

maybe bandicam? (https://www.bandicam.com/) i use it for no-commentary game playthroughs, and screen recordings (don't care to do voice overs). i bought the full version, trail only lets you do 10 min videos. you can always test it out.

sometimes you gotta make the bad stuff to get to the good stuff. no one starts out good, we all have to crawl before walking. And even then, you can't always expect to create bangers either. tbf I feel you about blender tho, i don't care to learn it past a few simple things. i sculpt irl and blender just over complicates it. so i stick to creating bom stuff, it took awhile for me to understand how to read the uv maps but i got better with practice. Also for SL photography (if that's what you mean by photos) you can try to get decent pics within sl without needing to heavily edit later with software. makes it easier. recommend skell's tips for fashion photos https://virtualbloke.com/archives/2954. maybe try joining a building or creative group within sl or on a SL discord/sm? getting advice and encouragement from others can make a difference when pursuing creative skill mastery. I'm in a writing/art discord and the encourage and help ppl give there makes it more fun. tho from your other comments it kinda seems you may need a break from sl. spend time away doing things you enjoy irl. no point in logging to sl if it feels boring atm.

kinda off topic but i never thought of using calling cards like this. I've mostly used my calling card within notecards for products i sell, just thought it was easier to have that there than customers having to type my name if they needed to contact me.

everian hexem in the anatomy discord server is putting together a spreadsheet with all the anatomy designers: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13y9JrtRuO6yeE0cuzr8qr8NQGOkNvXDXhGFhofnLRd8/edit?usp=sharing

found the gacha bottoms From Gabrielle for relatively cheap and it was what i needed to finalize this outfit. eventually i'll get better photos, i take forever to do that XD.

you could possibly make clothes suggestions in the discord. i know casual wear has been asked for a few times.

need land to unpack

i cant use mouse-look either. first person perspective in video-games tend to make my sick after while too. but sl's mouselook is atrocious.

"add" instead of "wear"

i wen thru the thread to see if anyone said this. im always getting this popup

i forget atenea isnt bom out the box. the selena body which is what i wore bc atenea wasnt released yet was bom-enabled from the get go.

lucybody is a cheaper alternative for mesh bodies, & makes several different types too. most maitreya clothing and slink shoes fit them, just try demos first. if you enter the midnight madness board, you can get the atenea body for free. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Coral Reef/38/51/501
