  1. I would say that some area. Others tend to be a bit more realistic. But there are a lot that aren't. If they were, we wouldn't have much bling. Sadly we still do in some parts of the grid, as well as really old-fashioned premesh avatars.
  2. I have two large monitors and a gaming rig. I'm often trying to apparently murder my computer with multiple games (yeah I know, one of my friends thinks I'm crazy). Maybe I'm spoiled with higher resolutions in other games. Again priorities. I believe to the average person they can't tell if you are using Evo or Evo X. Ask around, most will just say anything that comes to mind.
  3. From other resources explaining Lelutka and from Sl forums as well. I mean if you have a good computer it's not going to impact you or the little it does is more than likely not visible. But I rather remain with 512 when I can manage. And yeah I have Nova, Lake, and Avalon. On all three I tend to use Evo to this day. Only time where I shift is if I want to do a high-resolution shot and from up close. Otherwise, the difference is minimal. I don't see the benefit for day to day life. And as for my old skins and makeup, I liked them and I still like to use them. I still think they look rather good.
  4. Note to any future body creator. I think the success that Legacy had was because they to the best of my knowledge created events that catered to their clothes. And they marketed their developer kits to the creators. So as they rolled out their body, people were seeing companies actively producing clothes with the rigging for the body. It meant that most end users were able to buy into both. If you produce a body but only a small fraction of the creator base or none, cater to it people wont take the jump.
  5. I believe I had a bit of a discussion about this a while back. Due to the fact that Lelutka introduced their Evo X line way too close to releasing previous Evo line, thereby making relatively new heads (just three months in the market) obsolete and it seems that a large part of what some of us feared has started to happen. The part I loved about BOM was the ability to basically use the same layering across several heads from a brand. That is impossible for the most part if you use the Lelutka X head. The saving for us, is the fact that Lelutka currently is still leading the market so there are ample skin creators that catered to it and produced for it; so the shortage of appliers and BOM layers is almost non existent. But it sure is annoying to like particular makeup that isn't available in your mesh head even though it's classified as popular, because it's just one version behind. However, I don't see the need to use Evo X on a day to day life. Most people, including myself are not camming so close to an avatar (got to be immensely narcissistic to be focused on your face 80% of the time lol). So for most scenarious Evo is an overuse of textures in a game that has a CPU driven cost. I rather use the resources and buy furniture that I like even if it has higher triangles, than Evo X which basically does the same to my GPU and potentially lags someone in another sim, just because I want my eyeshadows to look higher definition (even if the only one that can see the difference is me if I cam in quite close). The problem I have is that eventually Evo will be completely obsolete and we have creators such as Sessions that haven't developed items in Evo X.
  6. This is not a pole, but this is my observation from going to various sims and looking through myriads of flickr shots. In rank: 1. Maitreya 2. Legacy (Closely follows). 3. Legacy Perky (both of these are interchangeable) 4. Slink 5. Belleza 6. E-Body (this one is gaining traction and I believe it may become top 1-4). My direct friends: Maitreya Legacy Legacy Maitreya Maitreya (I have Maitreya), though I have all Legacies. But I prefer Maitreya for day to day. It is very high on triangles.
  7. This is what happens when you keep sophisticating Sl design process. Before it wasn't mesh and someone could learn easily. With mesh and physics that came with that, many of the individuals had to learn at the very level of graphic designers. And not everyone has the time, patience, or the $$$ to go for that career type to only earn peanuts in SL because everyone wants things at 50 to 75 Lindens unless you are in 20 events per week.
  8. Hold up. What is the problem now? Gachas will remain in the marketplace, because they are not sold by the creator but rather from end users. Thus not breaking the rules. As for other items filter can help. And what one may not like, someone else may like.
  9. Bought those pants. Loving them. Wish creators would make items that mixed and match. I wear that tres blah denim jacket with as much as I can pair.
  10. But it's very, very hard to find modest. Even some of the stores that used to have modest clothes started going for lingerie (passing off as clothes). That's been one of my complaints. I love to mix my attire and not always wear lingerie (in fact, there's such a thing as blazers to go over the lingerie and jeans so the bodysuit looks like a tank). But it's usually very..... skimpy clothes.
  11. At my place getting ready for bed (well the coffeeshop at my place). Firestorm-Releasex64 6.4.13.63251 - Irina Forwzy (gyazo.com)
  12. Alafolie is more french design. Which I like mind you. I have a few of her items. I also use Tres Blah and mix with the other stores I mentioned. Not every piece will fit, but there are some in all that you can align to the modest Princess Quality or at least professional wear.
  13. Duchess Kate, Prince William's wife in UK.
  14. Exactly. And even if the gacha is low-priced or the clothes is low priced, they can still be driven out of market due to customer word of mouth. Plenty of businesses in sl tried to put things rather cheap, but the quality just wasn't there. Second, quality is also in the eye of the beholder. As such, someone may deem an item as well made and beautiful. While someone may claim it's high poly and lagging up a whole sim (seen this with one of the famous SL stores).
  15. And for that companies usually hire** counsel that is very well versed in countries they operate in. Just saying. Don't assume that because it is an American company that are ignorant of European law.
