Qie Niangao wrote: I imagine they're also worried that whatever it is that's discouraging retention is also poisoning those new arrivals such that they'll never come back, so the more marketing they do, the more they're shrinking their future market. I agree, Qie. This has been my theory since LL announced crossing 20,000 new signups/day over a year ago, as if that was a positive achievement. I'd be making SL as invisible as possible until I figured out how to retain new customers. They are currently growing the population of people who will never again visit SL by 14,000/day.

7-18-1973 Famed foley artist, Norbert "Knock Knees" Nusslebaum, who gained notoriety for his countless recordings of that whoop-whoop sound that corduroy pants make when you walk, dies of natural causes at the age of 92. Corduroy enthusiasts mourn his passing by sitting in chairs around his grave, alternately crossing and uncrossing their legs. 7-18-1985 Dozens of people suffer head injuries when searing heat and relentless sun forces the Arkansas State Fair to relocate their popular "Sooper-Dooper Trampoline Jump" to the shade of the fairground's four story parking structure. 7-18-2004 Recent high school graduate Martin "Dwindling" Prospects asks for the return of his promise ring when his girfriend of six weeks, Melissa "Rising" Starr, asks, for the forty second time, if she can have "just a bite" of his afternoon ritual Quiznos "Smoky Chipotle Turkey" submarine sandwich. -

Avatar Skin Layer Rubber/Shine Script
Madelaine McMasters replied to Duncan Lynwood's topic in LSL Scripting
Innula Zenovka wrote: Oh, I see. I thought the OP wanted to control the appearance of a prim avatar by script. @Duncan. Sorry, but the skin mesh can't be affected by script. You'll just have to try to make an appropriate skin using Gimp or Photoshop, but I can't see any way you could make it actually reflect light in the way shiny prims do. RIght. The fastest/easiest way to get a shiny skin look is probably to go to a latex clothing store and get a black catsuit. There are probably full face masks available at some of those stores, too. They won't match the sheen of prims with shine, but it'll be better than just a plain black skin. I've also transparent/translucent skin overlays that give an oiled look. I imagine those would work over a solid colored skin, giving a shiny appearance. -

How can I create a spiral slide?
Madelaine McMasters replied to Bedlam Ansome's topic in Building and Texturing Forum
Hi Bedlam, I sent you a quick prototype of a spiral slide with an exit chute. It'll need sanding and paint (and resizing) but should give you an idea how it's done with prims (two). I think you should be able to slide down it on a "sled" prim. As Rolig said, you may have to adjust the profile cut to make the outside wall high enough you don't go over it (I set it to a value I think will work, but you'll have to try it.. Tear it apart, examine the numbers, play with them, get a feel for how it works and have fun! Maddy -

Basic Functions and their consequences

mikka Luik wrote: Agreed, and apologies for my flippant post..I was somewhat irked. Specifics would be appreciated. Mik Here are some statistics... http://dwellonit.taterunino.net/sl-statistical-charts/ New user signups are increasing, while concurrency continues to decrease. As I've said before here in the forums, one could read this as LL working hard to increase the number of people who will never visit SL again. ;-) -
MAC SL Viewer not even loading
Madelaine McMasters replied to Apple Pumpkins's topic in Second Life Viewer
Hi Warehouse, Tossing the app doesn't get rid of everything. If you have a corrupted setting or cache file, that might still cause problems. Someone else is having Mac problems too and I offered these suggestions... Good luck! -

7-13-2012 Ladder sales plummet, black cat adoptions slink lower, mirror shipments reflect downturn. 7-13-2015 Popsy Martinsdale, tired of thinking, stops for a moment and vanishes, never to be seen again. 7-13-2021 Jasper "Badboy" Turlington is injured by fast moving boulders while walking through the Valley of Death. Turlington misunderstood the numerous "Watch for Falling Rock" signs to mean he should be on the lookout for a lost American Indian, suggesting we should fear incompetence more than evil. 7-13-2985 Wendell Q. Meek III inherits the Earth, but is unable to use it, as his ex-wife, Miranda Bold inherits the reading glasses.
