Hi, I purchased a shape that is copiable and tried to make a copy by clicking on it in my inventory, clicked copy...and nothing happened. I would appreciate any help you can give me about making copies of things. Thanks! Luscious Ragu

In the past few days all of a sudden my typing no longer works in SL after being in world for like 5 minutes. Is anyone else experiencing this, or knows how to fix this? Help! Lush
