    I dress seasonally. Except for the ones that are for year-round wear, all my outfits are labeled with an abbreviation for the season, and I move the off-season ones out of the system outfits folder during the off-seasons. Typical summer outfits are shorts with tank tops and flip-flops, sundresses, and the like. Typical winter outfits include sweaters, jackets, coats, scarves, earmuffs, etc.

    Impressive - I have one big folder for "Holiday" - and everything else is by brand (mostly) with a separate folder for shoes, accessories, undies & stuff life that...   

    I really really need to organize my inventory!!  😉

  2. To an extent,  yes I do - when I'm human.   

    It feels a bit funny to wear a winter coat in SL, when you can fry an egg on the pavement outside (in RL).   That being said,  since it never really gets cold here in So. California ---  I sort of go along with the traditional seasons.  It also really just depends on my mood. 😃

    I also enjoy dressing up for the holiday seasons - like Fall,  Halloween, Christmas, etc.

    Ah. So that's a "No, I don't have a point," then. 

    I was not in the mood to respond to this yesterday and in hindsight, I should have just ignored the snarky response. I will admit, now - I feel the need to make my point.

    The question - Should LL communicate to it’s residents inworld vs. a third party app?

    My point is, one size does not fit all.  Why not do both?

    Second Life has been marketed as the place to gather and collaborate. Too many loud voices, you say?   Well, as I said – shouldn’t LL be able to overcome this? I’ve been to several in world gatherings put on by designers and artists that were very well attended, and the audience was not out of control.  It is, at the very least, something LL should consider - since many residents feel it would foster a more intimate connection.

    Attending inworld and watching on You Tube are very different experiences.

    Others prefer to watch on You Tube; it’s convenient and fits their needs just fine.  There is no reason they can’t do both – except maybe the lack of suitable technology at this point.

    The OP asked for feedback.  I believe it’s important to allow everyone to voice their opinion, whether I agree with them or not.  Diversity of ideas is essential for growth.

    Yes, it's me again, with the topics that everyone hates. But try to forgive me, because it came to my mind again after recent experiences that happen time and time again. And I just want to vent, is all.

    I will just say this: Woman avatars are basically "IM bait". If you have a woman avatar, you'll get way more IMs from strangers than other kinds of avatars will.

    I'm not saying this to disparage anyone who has a woman avatar; I have one too and I like them. But this is just an observation I see time and time again while I'm playing as those avatars.

    I am usually in SL as a pretty hot female avatar....  I don't get very many unsolicited IMs ....   (shrugs)......    I get more when I go in as a cat,  or a unicorn,  or a lion..........  etc.    

    Just another dolled up female isn't much of a draw it seems.  😉

    On Firestorm: World > Improve Graphics Speed

    This is a new tool which gives a much (much) more accurate indicator of whose avatar is actually too complex, and which of your attachments are taking the longest to render. You can also derender the avatars that are actually causing lag in your viewer by using it.

    How very interesting!!!   Thank you :)      I went to a busy place to try this out.  The highest complexity avatar was someone who's body continuously  moved - as if under water or something.  A bit odd/not as cool as it may sound.

    Inspection revealed an unbelievable list of attachments.  Also noticed,  the person just seemed to be standing there - not shopping.    :(   

    I aim to keep my avatar under 100k or lower.   I don't wear my animals to go shopping or to big events.  If I go to a club and everyone has their pets out;  I do whip out my doggie.  What the heck, right?  

     

    OP - good luck to you!!  That is a cool avatar.   Hope they offer an update to reduce the complexity [it was certainly a bit on the expensive side]  or hope you find something less complex that you like just as much!  Good of you to be complexity conscious.  =D
