  1. I looked at those socks very closely and it looks to me like it is long leg warmers that stop at the foot and then shoes of the same pattern on the feet. (but I can't see the back so there may not be an actual heel so they may be meant to be just socks). At any rate if the foot part of the socks mesh is linked to the long socks and you have mod perms, you can probably unlink the foot part and then put your own shoes on. Failing that I guess Rowan's suggestion is what I would try if you want shoes, otherwise just go without them.
  2. Ooops! my bad. I did not know that thank you for the correction,
  3. Ask the owner of Truth. She probably knows since this is her picture for her hair. Just send her an IM.
  4. ohh ok. Now I see. Guess I have never been that great at making outfits so I never used that function. Probably why I did not miss it.
  5. Personally I do not see this as a problem at all. Firstly because nothing is "forced". You pick the body you want to wear and go after clothing that fits that body. If you want multiple bodies that's cool too, just go after again clothing for that body. And in a lot of cases you are going to find that perhaps both the bodies you wear are in the same clothing package. I do not see how the viewer has anything to do with all this. You can make as many folders and outfits as you need in the viewers. Perhaps I am missing a point or something, but what is hierarchical outfit tree? If you are looking for an easy way to match your body and size/shape then BOM takes care of that. Also not sure what you mean by incompatible ecosystems either "ecosystem"?? If you mean different Mesh makers; I often mix and match a couple of key items i.e. pants, tops, jackets from different outfits and all by different Mesh makers as well.
  6. I have always worn Maitreya Lara and of course lately been trying Lara X which I actually prefer, once enough clothing becomes available for it. However, having said that I have tried a few less popular bodies lately and I must say I quite like Inithium Khara; I find it quite flattering and unlike Kupra it is much more natural. I will make for Khara when I can. My alternate body was Belleza Isis but I actually never used it much and I admit I have not even tried the Gen X ones although I do make for them. IF I was not so cheap at the moment, I would probably invest in Khara. It is just hard to keep up with all the bodies and I am not sure I trust the stats either. What I do trust is what my customers tell me so that is usually what I end up going with.
  7. But doesn't this make it even more difficult to know what you are actually getting? This is the first I have heard of this practice. I mean if I need a Belleza Gen X Classic and it is named something I do not recognize I am going to pass right over it. Or am I misunderstanding what you mean here?
  8. My customers ask for the following bodies: Belleza Gen X Classic & Curvy; Maitreya Lara Original and Petite, Lara X and Petite X; Legacy Original and Perky; eBody Reborn and Waifu, Inithium: Kupra Original, Khara. And some still want Peach.
  9. I am not sure what you are saying here. Are you asking us to answer those questions or are you telling us what your assignment is? In the case of your asking us to answer those questions, I think perhaps a personal message to you might be a better way to do it. I for one am not sure I would like to answer in such a public forum. But that might just be me; I have been in SL since 2005 and have learned a few things about trust in SL.
  10. Well then it is clear the solution is just as you said: refuse to buy from that creator. And I would send a note card letting them know why they have lost a customer! No argument is needed just a clear message. And then move on to looking at other creators. When it comes to automatic alphas, I do not like them. I much prefer to use my own body hud to apply the alphas, that way I know I have control over what is covered and where. And during the demo stage, if I cannot cover what is needed then I simply do not buy the item.
  11. I have to wonder if perhaps this whole thing should have been sent to the creator of the product in question via note card inworld rather than posting the question here. As it does seem to be directed to one item by one creator. And the rest of us are not really involved. BUT to answer a question posed here. Yes I for one test out everything before I put it out for sale. And if there is a huge flaw or serious problem it does not get made en mass or sold. And even with the best rigging there still can be some breakthrough of certain tight areas upon movement, most of which can be managed by an alpha section on the body hud. If it cannot then it would not be put out to the public for sale.
  12. Not sure what you mean by coquette clothing. Perhaps you could provide a sample picture to give a better idea of what you want.
  13. I suspect that fitmesh for necklaces and even rings or earrings for that matter, are not done too often because of the extra work it would require. It is as simple as that. Agreed there are some but the majority are not. I also suspect that the average SL buyer would not want to pay the extra that the creator would have to charge for the extra work involved either. About the only accessory that I think should for sure be fitmesh are belts! Non fitmesh necklaces I can deal with. But belts are impossible to fit if they are not fitmesh.
  14. I do not believe this is needed. Although it certainly be done in 3D but in the end what is produced is a 2D map which is what is actually what is used to apply the tattoo to the body. The map templates mentioned earlier basically provide the same thing. Very much like using a template provided by full perm mesh clothing files. I have had success using the body templates mentioned above and as I said before it all boils down to accuracy in lining up the guide lines accurately. A full body tattoo does not need to be mesh, BOM works better and has no worry of taking up space and poking through other mesh clothing that may be worn.
