I know we can buy food in every event, and honestly, I am a bit tired of all the food. When do I have time to display it all? But I will make room for this: https://www.facebook.com/Access.SecondLife/photos/a.4009079729157756/4008950045837391

How much does WRONG have on sale? I have a whole collection, because I buy from them every weekend. This bed, only 8 Li, is totally me. It is modern, but not the dark monochrome tones WRONG is using a lot of. It has soft textiles, but not sugary sweet and overdone. https://www.facebook.com/Access.SecondLife/photos/a.4009079729157756/4008957325836663 '

Not furniture, but cool! Get a shark to swim under your OW or Pier house! https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Jian/235/234/24

I know I can have any furniture I wish in underwater rooms. It is not like RL where upholstery and fine paint is ruined. But I want something more special. Modern, with a bit futuristic style. But not Sci-Fi with neon lights all over. It can have a bit lights, unless they take over the whole look. I have only three rooms and all are round. I have no special idea what the rooms should be used for. I don't need a kitchen. I enjoyed setting up the enviroment... but for furniture, I feel lost. I bought hanging chairs from the gacha here: https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/01-Culco-Futuristic-House-Chair-Golden-4Li/14042078 so you have an idea of the style I am looking for. The sofa from that set was crap. Sofas and some bar for drinks? Futuristic lights?

Stun Poses have both breathing poses and static poses. https://www.flickr.com/photos/stunposesoficial/with/50637534358/

That is what I do. In cases like this, resize scripts is the best. I have used this freebie from Herk's lab for 7 years. It does just the same as resizers they charge money for. https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Linkset-Resizer-With-Menu/2958190 I did pay 99 L for a resizer that could stretch individual directions, instead of all directions at once. (x, y, z) But I use the Herk's Lab all the time. It is so seldom that I need to resize just one direction.

Scroll down to "Luka". https://lelutkasl.com/evolution-heads/ If that skin isn't for you, try to look at these: https://www.flickr.com/photos/gac_akina/with/50353567582/ When you look around, get demos. I have met people who does not bother with demos. It does not end well. Even if you can afford to buy a few wrong things, it is annoying and set you back in time because you must start again. The Flickr page with skins has a symbol for the heads they are modeled on. To look like that, you need both the head and the skin. So if you find out that the skin you prefer has a "Catwa" logo, you must demo with a Catwa head. The half top of the first page is Lelutka Evolution (Evo) but then it start to be mostly Catwa skins. When you demo head and bodies, make sure you can use the HUDs. Some can feel more intuitive than others. And start with the included shape in the folder with the head. Heads are rigged different, so without the starter shape, they look deformed. And when you take off the mesh head, your system avatar's head look deformed, lol. If you buy a skin, use the shape in the skin folder, if a shape is included. Use eyebrow shaper if it is included. I know it comes with the heads. It is a ton of shapes to buy. I can't see much use for them, because when you wear the starter shape, you can easy change the body muscle, height, arm length and such numbers yourself. If you decide to buy a shape, go to the Marketplace and type in the head's name. Filter so you only have Avatar Components -> Shapes. NB! Use a shape marked "2,5" for Lelutka heads. It is a change in the head bones from version 2,5. Older shapes look yuck with the upgraded head. You can work around it with an older head version, but why go back when you upgrade?

The left side here has the color looking too blue, but that is because I want to use colored light to spice up the images a bit. The right side show the dress color right. It is even sold as mauve.

It sounds like you go for human female. I am not a Star Wars hard fan, but from what I have seen in the movies, the humans look like.... humans. Are you looking for alien skin/shape combos? Twi'lek, Togruta or Dathomirian? It would help if you got a picture of what you have in mind. I am not an expert on this. I tried to make a twi'lek once, but the market for lekkus was not inspiring. It looked like crap.

It sounds like someone is messing with you. I know it is possible to deform other avatars like this. Maybe you are in a place where people like to mess with newbies. Try to go some newcomer-friendly place like NCI Kuula. https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Kuula/67/151/28 http://www.nci-sl.info/blog/ When you are there, log off land log in again. Make sure you log in to "Last Location". I know little about these deformers, but if it is what I think, it goes away when you relog, and if the griefer is not in the same region as you, he can not restart it. I hope this helps. If not, we have to check if you got a "gift" that has a nasty script hidden. In NCI, you find people you can ask for help too, and it is changing rooms there. Not sure where, but it should be signs.

I see you already asked on Flickr. I have seen Contraption and Hotdog use avatars that are normally not for sale. If somebody knows this skin, it must be @Skell Dagger Or send Mr. Wainwright a question inworld?

I miss GoH. Not terribly much, but it is an itch. The first time in Bellisseria, I thought I was going to stay in one place for ever. First 4 months, with a Traditional and a Boat. I had one Premium alt. Then I found out that the Boat placement was quite boring in the middle of a row. And that the Trad was in a very laggy region because it was filled with boats and a few houses. So the alt abandoned his boat and got a perfect Traditional. I stayed there 6 months, and gave it up when I had that craziness for Hammond Park and the other regions there in south. I regret that even today. Not as much as the first months, but it is still in the back of my head. I think I had 4 types of homes, the same time. I did not know then, that I did not have to pay VAT if I signed up for annual Premium. I have had some really great locations, but they didn't take me emotionally like that second Traditional. I used GoH for the hunt in whole 2020. It was not about having the homes but getting them, and the best location possible. For Traditionals, it was those unique locations in older Belli. For boats, end of row and with room around, but not the big sand islands. For Victorians, the more flowers around the house, the better. For Logs, flowers there too. But for every style, water. Next to water, and with an open view at least to one side. Same for Stilts, on the edge of a region with void water so I see only ocean. I don't care if it's new houses there in the future, I do not have a deep connection to LH homes anymore. But I still miss GoH when I am bored. Perhaps I will sign up an Alt in the future, but not now.

No. Have you lived on an estate that allow out of sim decor? These estates is surrounded by void water, that no one can access. You can place decorations like reefs, islands and much more over the border by using a root prim as anchor. This is the same, just that it is not pushed out in the void, but on the neighbor's land.

Are you using a system or mesh avatar (head)? https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Aeros-Avatar-Baenar/4515107 This skin is some years old, and only for the system avatar. I think it already has a grown-up look, and with wrinkle layers, it gets older. But if you use mesh body and head, it is not sure to fit. The mesh body will probably work, with tintable fingertips and toes. The head, is a very different problem. But if you like the Baenar skin, I would try a demo and see what can be done with it. You will need BoM on both mesh head and body, for it to work.

I love to look at all the heads, I think they show a great variety when I see them all together. https://lelutkasl.com/evolution-heads/ I tried demos of heads and thought I should buy one in the sale, but I could not find any head I like more than the Lake head. I am much more "loyal" to my mesh self than I was to my "classic" self. I used to get a new skin almost weekly, and changed shapes too. I jumped between brands, a skin from here, a skin from there. I think the mesh avatar look so much better, I don't need to chase around. I am settled. But I will try the new demos. Just in case. 😉

I found out that Seraphim links to the Facebook sale album of Access now. So that's where I found it. I used to get a notecard from the group inworld, but it is so many things. And opening the images from the notecard took a lot of time. I used to concentrate on stores I already knew, and I am sure I missed a lot. I hope I will use most of it... Not just furniture. I have a lot of new jewelry, and started to buy backdrops. I don't think I had a single backdrop before.

I know it is bad of me to say that I don't care so much about triangles and heaviness... Each should inspect it and find out on their own. As long as I can see it fine, and I don't lag myself out, I am happy. I should say that I am using my out- of Bellisseria place much more, and it is nice and low lag no matter what I toss in. It is no other furniture threads, and it says all- in- one, so... Inspect and make your pick.

ItGirls is not what I will call similar to Heaux. I do not like this look at all, so I can not give advice. But I can post the image here, so we know what the OP want.

Now I want the full region with the cave system from Fanatik and all the add-ons. And the Dungan castle on top of the mountain, some trenches and a bridge over to it... https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/Fanatik-Architecture-DUNGAN-CASTLE-mesh-fantasy-castle-building/15885492 Room for more houses on the other side of the mountain... The Quinta palace. And I want a super modern house too... I must start to buy lottery tickets.

I think Lelutka has played the cards really well. For years, they have been in the shadow of Catwa, then Genus too. All the new skins and makeups was for Catwa, then Catwa/Genus, and once in a while a Lelutka skin. For a while I believe Genus took over Catwa as number one in new skins and makeups. Lelutka was parked well behind them. Reducing the prices to 3800 was a good start. Instead of having the lower price one or two weeks, it has lasted. The new Evolution line look great, and they have the same low price. Then a 50% sale, and on top of that, a giveaway of both a male and female head. Suddenly it is Evolution products everywhere. It is not just that Lelutka wanted to be kind, but it is a great way of doing business. Skin and makeup creators find out that the Lelutka owners has multiplied. So they start to produce for the new line. People that's looking to buy a new head, see products for Evolution everywhere. If they like the skins they see, they have to buy a Lelutka head... They have been really productive too. Simone head was the first Bento head, and it took a really long time before Lelutka made new Bento heads. 4 new heads now, so soon, came as a surprise. 17 Evolution heads! All in a year.

Yes, you must search for "Wearable" when you shop, unless you will find a rez zone that allow you to put the car on ground. I know it is maps over rez zones and Hud's that search for them, but I can not say what you should get. I don't use them, and do not know what's good. I hope others can come with suggestions.

I can buy it and test. Bee Designs is not super low Li, but it can be acceptable. Triangles and such, I have no idea. https://www.facebook.com/Access.SecondLife/photos/a.3990034431062286/3989930631072666 Same here.. I love the look of this bed, but the Li? I better inspect it. https://www.facebook.com/Access.SecondLife/photos/a.3990034431062286/3989936194405443 https://www.facebook.com/Access.SecondLife/photos/a.3990034431062286/3989931617739234 Every time I go to Evhah, I leave without shopping because of the Li, but I don't give up. They have good-looking items. https://www.facebook.com/Access.SecondLife/photos/a.3990034431062286/3989931104405952 https://www.facebook.com/Access.SecondLife/photos/a.3990034431062286/3989931774405885 The Happy Weekend sale has become my addiction. I will buy most of these things. But not all. In addition to this I will buy jewelry, makeup, poses, a backdrop and perhaps some shoes. My inventory is growing every weekend.

You should perhaps take it up with the EEP creator....? I can't imagine LL is behind that one.

Yes indeed. I thought Orwar would see it. I could have said it was on UNESCO World Heritage List, but that would be too easy? https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/55

I would rather see you reduce the price. It is so much abandoned land in SL. It is sad to look at the map. Maybe someone will buy it, but can't afford the price you are asking for now.
