So much so that I've seen Belleza Jake versions, on rare occaions, in outfit packs I buy. And I don't buy male clothing. I noticed, but didn't get it imprinted in my brain very deeply, so I can't recal style of clothing, or who all did that.

Reminds me of one of the few bodies I demo'd and didn't buy - that Eve body. I don't think I even took a pic of it and I take a pic of everything. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/EVE-Pulpy-mesh-body-BENTO-Ruby-BOM/6165728

People's posts have signatures? I don't think I've seen any signatures on SL Forums. ETA: Clicked on the Settings link. Is signatures off by default? I found that it was turned off in my settings, though I don't recall turning it off.

You do not need Lelutka Evo-X head to wear Evo-X make-up. I wear Evo-X make-up while wearing Akeruka head. The AK ADVX version. AK got permission to use Evo-X UV map.

I think the balloon animal comment was about the other body called Peach. I could be wrong.

Hate when bodies use the same or similar names. Like Petite, or Classic, or, well, Peach. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Peach-Female-Mesh-Body/23585647?page=11

The day the new bodies were released, I looked inside the Belleza store and was sad to see that the bodies were gone from the place they had been, I believe, for years. Then I noticed, and I'm not sure why I continued to look, that the older bodies had been moved to the opposite side of the store (the men's side). If I recall corectly, they weren't hidden so much as they were further into the store, so if you just glanced in that direction, you wouldn't have seen them. There was a new(ish; new I think; well new to me) sign that said "Bodies".

I was noticing that also - that ad boards either had both Gen X bodies, or just Gen X Curvy. Then last weekend happened. And I kept running into events & stores that had only Gen X Classic (along with other bodies, but not Gen X Curvy).

Yeah, it's neat to see where things go from here.

I've seen pictures like that on Flickr, though never knew how they did it.

Thanks! Yeah, I see that in both. In my second image there's a kind of Picasso "Starry Night" effect going on with the second one. Neat how aspects of one artist (Picasso) can be seen in another (Van Gogh). The image I used is one of Van Gogh's "Self Portraits". First image kind looks like it was mixed with Picasso's "Field of Poppies".

Oh, the thing I'm specifically referring to in my post is an option on Nightcafe AI. I'm not sure if other AI's have anything similar. This option allows you to upload an image you took in Second Life (or any image), then choose a picture already on Nightcafe AI, and have the AI make a third image based on these two images. The first picture I posted above in this thread is the result of mixing an SL image with a Nightcafe image. The image of people in a cafe in this post is an image that was on Nightcafe, and I mixed it with a picture I took inside SL (the woman standing next to a fox below). Second picture I posted in the first post in thread is based on another image I took inside SL, mixed with the third image I've added to this post (last image in this post).

When I found out that the theme was ranches, I did ask the AI. It showed me some horses outside a log cabin home.

Some posts on the "Next Theme" thread lead me to NightCafe AI. Took me a while, but I eventually realized that one of their options allows you to modify your own images. Anyone else play with that, or any other AI generating thingie programs? I attach two of them that I've done as examples.

This is what I got when I asked Nightcafe AI to tell me the future for Linden Homes. So, apparently, really tall castle ruins?

Cute sweater.

As someone who spent a little time with the list, and a little time just wandering: 1) The list lead me to places I'd probably not have found otherwise - quite neat decorated places. 2) I switched to random wandering because I wanted to see if I could find any. Which lead to about an hour wandering through roughly 15 regions and finding 3 buckets. So this is one of those, probably already known but I'll note anyway: if you have a bucket out and you are sad it hasn't had much in the way of visitors: Bellisseria has grown huge. And it is quite depressing to go through 15 regions, find only 3 buckets, and most of the rest of the places being undecorated (though my favorite halloween themed place I found wasn't on any of the lists, nor did it have a bucket out on it.) So I, for one, stopped wandering. That's just me, though.

You might mean something else by "replacement", but Prima is put out by the Tonic people. Slink's "replacement", as in the next body put out by Slink, was Cinnamon & Chai (which, I believe, didn't catch on at all - and that's two different bodies that can't wear the same clothing (if I recall correctly)).

Okay.

Day One

So, Back to the Future, set in 1950s & 1980s. This is what they imaged a home of the future would look like, in the 1950s (the round glass one). Actual home of the 1950s (ranch style home). 1980s home of the future (the third one). Actual home of the 1980s (multistory home). But, yeah, it's probably remodeling of Traditionals &/or Victorians.

Found several Moles, 7, since I started looking on October 2 for things to return to Moles. And 2 Mole cards (I'd have three, but after roughly 40 hours of being awake, I misread the pop-up and had bees swarm me instead of getting a card).

Since acquiring the body and shopping around I've noticed two things: 1) Ad boards seem to either just say Gen X without defining which of the two are included (and almost always they only include Curvy) or include both Curvy & Classic on ad board & 2) Majority of the items I've found to buy for Belleza Gen X has both Classic & Curvy, but there are several that only had one of the two options, and 100% of the time, they've gone with Curvy. (and there's at least one time that the Curvy verison actually fit better than the Classic on the Classic body - in terms of body parts breaking through the mesh or not breaking through the mesh). EDIT: Figures moments after posting I'd find an advertisement board that has only Gen X Curvy listed on it.

Problem with that hint is that there are, roughly, 8 billion QA spike's in Bellisseria. And I touched a good many of them with no reaction.

Saw three actual Moles today. Probably more fun than actually finding a dropped object. Didn't get any cards out of finding them, though.
