You are making a requirement that can be difficult to meet in sl. There can be different reasons to why people put in a link in the listing. Some customers expect that they can visit a store before buying, to make sure that it is not fraud, and other customers would like to see what else of items there is in the store and use the marketplace only as inspiration for their shopping. It also costs money to have items on display in the store as a prim is very expensive in SL, and if it is a trader who has been many years in sl and has made a lot of goods over the years, then it can get quite expensive to have everything rezzed. One can also say that with the small amount you pay for the goods in SL, then it is unfair to require to see it rezzed and I believe that it is a service that many can not meet economically. You should see it as an online store. There are many internet stores that only have a warehouse and no business-room, yet people buy at these places, just based on some pictures. What you can do is to ask the merchant to rezz a certain item for you. Many merchants are willing to do that. I do agree though with that people should update and also shouldnt put in a link if they dont have a shop inworld.

Halloween is getting closer.... Are you ready for a challenge? Are you a Hero? Or are you a brave Treasure Hunter? In the dense forest with secret caves, you will find zombies and other species to shoot and kill, and treasures that you want to fight for. Be careful!!! Open the whole month of October. Scourge Island. They say that those who land upon the island never depart. An eternal damnation of wandering; not quite alive, not quite dead. The first were pirates, condemned and exiled to the island for various heinous crimes. The rattling of sabers together with the howls of despair still heard in the darkness on a moonless night. Next came the explorers, but what they discovered would never leave the island with them, for they themselves would never depart. Visitors from the stars followed, perhaps thinking they were immune to the violence and creeping pestilence that the island excelled in producing. Look upon the wreckage of their culture, strewn among the ruins, caked with their blood. Stay away! Do not attempt to land without a weapon though it may do you little good! For the dead still walk the shadowed hollows, and a weapon quickly becomes your best friend, and your only chance, of survival. Scourge Island is infested with the souls of the eternally damned. Visit today and join them. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Ravi/40/40/31

They have forgot Window Treatments. There is a category for rugs, but not curtains.

Saturday october 13 at 12:30 PM to 2:30 PM They come in darkest night, in many shapes, many sizes. As you explore the village, you wonder, of course, if it is haunted, like they say. Take your time, but not too much, for danger lurks in the village tonight. Maniacal mummies, skeletons and zombies from the pit of hell await you. Take a gun, if you are smart. Beat the top-score. Join the village group to be able to shoot. Join-sign is at the entrance. If the zombies dont get you DJ RCE will play some cool music, and at the dance platform the zombies dont dare to come. Haunted Halloween Village: There is no mall here, no sales pitch. Instead you will find a village of wonder and delight, where every corner holds a surprise, and Zombies wander in the night. The moon is full, your mood one of trepidation and fear. On the dance floor only ghosts do the Watusi, but you are welcome to waltz above the fray, for a brief respite, before returning to the hazards below. Fun, exciting and free, return to a time of adventure and surprises lurking around each shadowed corner. http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Griffindor/123/146/1408

Yeah, I did that, and there wasnt any change at all. My card are integrated though, so maybe thats why it didnt help...i dont know....

Yeah i thought that at first too, but in the old viewer 3 version it didnt drop at all, and then i cant see how that could be my graphic card overheating then, because it should have done that too in that viewer which it didnt. I read somewhere about a bug in the old viewers that made fps drop when you look at something with flexi, and there are several jiras about it too, which are now closed because LL think they have solved it. So there has been something about this earliere that apparently has come back. The fps goes back up again when doing something, not always sure what though, but open the inventory could get it back up, or moving the camera to look from top or other things, but its not always it will help. Only sometimes. I will get a new graphic card though, because this could ofcourse have something to do with my card. Yet many others also have reported this temporarely problem that dont have the same card or dont use the same driver.

ahhhh...I didnt know that. Thank you sooo very much

Unfortunately I was forced to update the sl viewer to the new version 3.3.4. The 3.3.3 version works fine without the fps drop bug and it was the only viewer that worked, all other viewers has the fps drop implemented too...lol It starts out fine with my normal fps around 15-20 and then suddenly it drops below 5 and stay there, unless i focus on the ground with nothing else visible. There are a lot of jira's on this, all closed because LL think they fixed it and they did...until yesterday! I would like to know where i can get the 3.3.3 version instead of being forced to use the 3.3.4, now that there isnt any other viewers that doesnt act like that. I have tried them all, i think....cool, niran, phoenix and whatever they are called. They all do it. Frustrated.....

Search works for me again now. So they did something apparently.

My shop has disappeared totally too. Wonder what on earth is going on in LL these days with all those merchant-unfriendly bugs. reported in WEB-4724

Join us for 1 ½ hour of DJ RCE's heavenly music with Dance and Romance. The "Secret Serenades" Ballroom's royal ambience and intimacy can transform any social gathering into the memory of a lifetime and adds a glamorous touch of class to any special event and important celebration. Located on the center of the Alquimia Sim and overlooking the adjacent ballroom park, this large, elegant ballroom is the one of the crown jewels of SL Ballrooms. The Ballroom Hall itself is surrounded by little alcoves where you can relax and if privacy is needed the curtains infront of the alcove can be closed. There are 4 semi-closed dinnerrooms each with an advanced dinner-table and lacecurtain to close up the room in a semi-final way. If privacy is needed the curtains can be fully closed. First floor is a balcony where you can watch the event from above, and with 4 advanced dinnertables our guests can sit and watch while eating or drinking champagne. Outside on the balcony a cuddle couch is placed so our guests can enjoy the view of the park while being close to eachother. Secret Serenades Ballroom, for dancing and romancing dreams coming true.

hmmm...what do people consider as crap? I do actually think that is very different from who you are. As a newbie you would never know what is crap and what isnt. As new you think everything is cool. When you grow older in sl you start to be able to see the difference of the merchandise around. And when you start to be able to make your own stuff you most certainly see the difference around. But it takes time to grow in experience. Thats why i think that even the merchants that makes "crap" can sell today. Maybe only to new people, but no matter what they wouldnt pay rent for a shop if they didnt sell. The quality of your own making is also getting better and better the more you practise. That is ofcourse a very importent factor, but would you try to get to be better if your "crap" stuff hasnt sold? I dont think so. That is what motivates us. Remember how happy you were when you sold your first thing. That might have been awful to look at today, but then it had a wow-factor that made someone buy it. And you got motivated to make more stuff and even tried to make it better along the road of your experience. What you learn during time is that nothing is certain. YOu can not expect to sell for the same amount every day, but when you are in the fase where everything just go up and up its like the greatest boostfactor you can get. Today i find it hard to go shopping. I do it only when i am too lazy to make anything myself, or if it is dresses. (I have too little patience to make cloth.) I know how to script, to sculpt to make textures, so its getting harder and harder to find something where i can say "wow thats cool", because i will always think of that i could make it myself better (even if i couldnt...lol) BUT...i would never call anyone elses products for crap just because of that. If we should look for a more suitable word for "crab" i would suggest that using "Primitive" would be much better. That is harder to bash people by saying they make primitive stuff because they would probably just take it as a indication of that they needed to practise some more, which is a far more gently way to put it. And hey...some people like primitive stuff. And that concludes my thought of this issue :smileyhappy:

I had a few curtains that had changed maturity to adult. How can a curtain be declared adult? I really prefer not to think of what people use my curtains for, if that is so...lol No, I think there was a bug in the code that was converting the items to a different maturity level. I had 3 magic boxes affected (of 25 in total), and it was only the middle items that was affected in all 3 (middle when you look in contentfolder of the box). Just a few in a row. And they were all items that wasnt updated, since they arrived from xstreet, so that might also be a factor. But they didnt include any "wrong" words, unless Library or DinnerRoom is a bad word. Fortunately I only had around 10 items that were affected by this, but I feel sad for those people who had many more and who have to fix it all, especially if its all because of a bug. I just deleted my items, because they were ready for achieving anyway.
