It? A skin is like any other texture. You upload it as a PNG or TGA file and apply it as Lindal described. As Lindal says, you can save yourself the L$10 per upload while you are in testing phase by working on the beta grid, where uploads are free, or you can upload the image as a local file.

LDPW hasn't just provided empty parcels to drop houses on. They have created landscapes and neighborhoods. Traditional houses would look out of place among camping trailers in the wooded hills of Placid, and a camping trailer would be really odd in one of the houseboat slips. It makes great sense to be able to swap one style of trailer for another on the same parcel, but it would ruin the local community feel of Bellisseria to jumble all the themes together randomly. We are in the expansion phase of Bellisseria. LDPW is releasing new regions at the rate of one or two a day now, and releasing an entirely new theme every few months. Every time there's something new, there's a rush of people to explore. People's ideas of a "perfect" home change rapidly. Just watch all of the speculation that's going on daily in the SSP thread here in this forum. Look at all the photos that people are posting to show off their decorating skills. What will the next region look like? Will the next house theme be even more exciting than the ones we already have? This is a land rush that beats anything in SL for a decade. It's all the more exciting because of the competition. Demand is much greater than supply, and is likely to be for some time. When a home becomes available, it's on the market for minutes at most, so people don't have the luxury of time to decide whether to accept an offered home or not. Grab a house while you can, and then abandon it and elbow your way through the crowd to get a "better" one tomorrow.

Where would you ever hear something weird like that?

There are a lot of textures to rez in most Bellisseria regions -- lots of trees and bushes, walls, and the houses themselves. Prudence is right that it makes sense to keep your draw distance rather low. If you're on the ground, and certainly if you are in your home, you aren't going to be looking at things much over 75-100 meters away anyway.

From Managing Private Regions Some older regions have "grandfathered" or discounted pricing on their monthly maintenance fees. In February 2010, it was announced that these grandfathered maintenance fees would no longer be offered and that changing ownership or converting a grandfathered region would change its maintenance fee to the current monthly rate for its region type. As of November, 2015, you may now transfer grandfathered-priced Regions in accordance with the transfer pricing schedule. We are unable to swap the price of a current grandfathered region with a non-grandfathered region. Grandfathered pricing stays with the region for the life of the region or until it is transferred or converted. If a grandfathered region is abandoned and subsequently reactivated, its maintenance fee is updated to the current monthly rate for its region type.

Odd. I must lead a sheltered life, or maybe I am more intimidating than I thought. I have never had any stranger in SL ask, "How are you?" And when someone I know asks, I think it's rarely meant anything more than "Hello".

Or both, actually. My reply was actually addressed to everyone else who might wander in here, assuming that this is a brand new thread.

I control my flexi-tail twitch by changing gravity on a timer. Skirts are a wee bit trickier than a twitching tail. For one thing, they are not meant to twitch. A skirt is meant to rest gently on your lap when you sit and to stay there without twitching until you stand up. Generally speaking, it is poor form for a skirt to poof up and float at chest level when you are seated and it is unsightly for it to sink through your legs. Back in the dark ages, some clever person distributed a script that you could add to a prim skirt, making it flip 90 degrees at the waist when you sat down. If your skirt's hem was above your kneecaps, it almost looked realistic (if you ignored the fact that the flipped-down back of the skirt exposed your butt). Maxi-length skirts and gowns looked ghastly. Other people have tried tricks with flexi, like the one you suggest. They all fail in mild to spectacular ways. Mesh skirts are arguably the best attempt yet -- they don't sink through your legs and they don't always expose an open tunnel to your hoohah when you sit down. They still look overstarched or like an odd rubber suit much of the time, though, especially if they are floor length. IMO, the best designers combine the advantages of prim, flexi, mesh, and system textures to conceal some of the worst features of each method, instead of relying on just one. Sadly, the best solution for many women in SL is to forget about wearing skirts at all.

This is a necrothread and the most recent query is a duplicate of

It's not even clear what you mean by "reset." It would make a lot of sense for some kinds of orbs to clear out-of-date information once a day, for example. Otherwise, data will tend to accumulate over time, eventually leading to a stack/heap failure. A security orb should not clear your lists of allowed or banned visitors, though, so a total restart of the script is probably not a good idea unless that information is stored in a remote database (as it apparently is in the Linden Home security system, for example). As Molly says, some systems will allow you to designate one or more people who may be allowed access to the system, too. Without knowing any more about your system, all we can do is guess about what's possible.

Ferris wheels have been a favorite for scripters for a long time, so there are several scripts out there. You should be able to find them with a Google search or, failing that, by posting in the Wanted forum. If you are writing your own and get stuck, bring it here with your specific questions. If you're not a scripter, you can hire one by posting in the InWorld Employment forum.

South of Fourze, a steep road leads to a bridge across the great river and into the highlands of Wilderness Point. The road has been paved for some time now, although land on the west side of the river is still being developed. Once you cross the bridge, you're on a dirt track. It's hilly and there are some sharp turns, but easy to navigate, especially if you are on a motorcycle or, in my case, a sedate scooter. The sky was blue and clear today, so I had decided to explore. My plan was to follow roads east, paralleling the coast until I reached Backhill, and then come back in a loop through the lake district. The hills are beautiful at this time of the year. As I traveled along, I was in mild to thick forest, hearing birds and small animals in the bushes. It's quite easy to scramble up the coastal ridge to get a view of the harbor at Plafil Waters from anywhere along the road through Wilderness Point and Carden. Here's a particularly lovely spot, looking across at the Plafil lighthouse. I'm always on the lookout for swimming holes, as you know. There are some lovely ones here along the river or in little hollows. They are more public than I prefer, but if you and a friend are looking for a spot to relax and share a picnic lunch, you'll have plenty of choices. Bring the dog along too, as long as you can keep him from running off after a squirrel. I turned south in Backhill, as planned, and crossed the river into Placid. There are several bridges here, in fact, so it's quite easy to find a way inland. Thanks to some rather large rock outcrops, the roads in Placid and west into Arvee twist around a lot. If you had a large vehicle, they could be challenging, but they are no match for something the size of my scooter or even a jeep or a small pickup. This would be a beautiful place to own a camping trailer on a small parcel, wouldn't it? Look at how clear the water is here. If you had a canoe or a kayak or, I suppose if you were a mermaid, you could have quite an adventure following small streams through this part of Bellisseria. I may find an afternoon to try it myself. The railroad's northern line runs through these hills, serving all the woodlands north of Campwich Forest. I had crossed under a railroad bridge across a stream to the east, so had been south of the line and running parallel to it through Arvee. The road through The Beaten Path meets the tracks at the main depot there and turns north into Wilderness Point. My scooter whirred along softly, hardly kicking up any dust. So there I was, back at the start of my trip for the day. It was starting to get a little cloudy and the sun was going down. I was just as glad to be nearing the end. I hadn't chosen an outfit for hiking in the backwoods, and the fall air is a little chilly toward the end of the day. The birds and butterflies don't care, though. They were out in full force, greeting me as I made the final turn up the hill, across the great river, and toward home.

I don't know why, but this silly game is addictive. Toad Hollow + Bellisseria = A wholesaled robot is ill. ( Ok, so isn't someone supposed to check these things before they're shipped? ) Tight Harbor + Bellisseria = Legislator's heir hit Barb. ( I don't care what she did, Johnny. You don't hit! ) Peachtree + Bellisseria = Is heir set replaceable? ( If he hits Barb again, he's out of the will. ) The Beaten Path + Bellisseria = Ban lets sheep rehabilitate. ( So maybe spending a night in the drunk tank is enough to make him shape up? )

In the days before llGetAgentList (really not that long ago) , we had to do rather clunky things with drones to gather the information. I still have a couple of devices in my MP shop that use a drone to scamper around, making overlapping sensor sweeps to gather certain types of information that llGetAgentList cannot. It's all rather cumbersome, but it works. You have to make all sorts of allowances for eliminating redundant entries, avoiding no-script areas, watching out for obstacles, and a host of other hazards. Still, for some applications a drone is a workable solution.
