But my whole life, I've had this crazy sort of romanticized view of autumn with foliage, apple orchards, cider, cinnamon, hot chocolate, warm colors, cozy sweaters, friends gathered 'round the fireplace, and crisp tempartures that turn your cheeks rosy. Maybe it's because I have a fall birthday, but the idea of fall has always appealed to me, and it's always felt like the season that most "fit" my personality. Autumn feels like a time for reflection, perhaps because of shortening days, and trees shedding their leaves, and people beginning to spend more time indoors as the temperature drops; more of a family time, and a time for deeper conversations with friends and loved ones. The thought of fall, or at least the idealized version of fall that exists in my head, always makes me feel invigorated and introspective at the same time. Quinn...that was the main factor in my having moved from Florida back home. I missed the change of seasons Well, that and the bugs of course...:matte-motes-agape:
  2. Penny Patton wrote: Kylie Jaxxon wrote: Dana, is this also true when you purchase a shape that is marketed as petite/short...the proportions are still off? That can only be answered on a case by case basis. The problem is, most shapes you see in SL, from those provided by Linden Lab, to most of those sold by other residents, are made by people without a strong grasp of proportion or a good understanding of the appearance editor, so regardless of size they're often badly proportioned. It's impossible to tell whether a shape is properly proportioned unless the creator provides demos for you to try before purchasing or the vendor art they display is made to show off how well proportioned the shape is. Thanks, Penny, that makes sense. Since I'm not a content creator and don't know the ins & outs of that kind of thing, wasn't sure if they work with the same type of tools/sliders that we do, but yes, knowledge would be a key thing.
  3. In RL, my eyes are green, so most of the time you will find Kylie with green eyes. I sometimes shift towards violet/lavender or a tawny shade for a change of pace, but not too frequently.

You sound like a therapist, exept they usually don't ask many ....they ask you what you want to do about it...patient heal thyself! lol, nah...just trying to get a conversation going. After all, it is hump day, we need something to see us through the end of the week :matte-motes-tongue:
  5. I could just kick myself!!! After almost 4 years of not smoking, I went and picked up a pack last week and haven't stopped since :matte-motes-crying: When I quit back then, the tide was starting to turn, now with even more enforced laws, I feel like a total outcast as a smoker. Please, I didn't post this to receive sermons on the virtues of being a non-smoker...I'm getting enough of that from my girls in real. I know what I have to do. But, what about anyone else...any regrets in other things?

  7. Dana Hickman wrote: Pussycat Catnap wrote: The taller you are the more impossible it becomes to have proper proportions. It would help if you include the whole truth, not just part of it. The farther away your AV is from starting default height in ANY direction, the more impossible it becomes to have proper proportions. The morph points for slider adjustments do not allow very tall AVs enough adjustment room on specific areas like hand and head size, as well as hip and arm length.. and so one can throw off proper proportion by electing to be too tall. The morph points also do not allow very short AVs any sense of proper proportion either, and that is due to the fact that the forearm, lower leg, and hip flex areas need to maintain a minimal thickness to be able to fold properly during animation.. and the height slider allows AV's to be shorter than that minimal thickness dictates. That results in midget or troll arms/lower legs, as well as hips with the thighs pushed too far up into them. It only need be said that the height slider is not a full scale "grow or shrink" adjustment, so it's best not to think of it as one. It can only excessively lengthen or compact the neck, torso, leg, and arm lengths, and nothing else, and there is such a thing as too much in either direction for the mesh to handle properly. Dana, is this also true when you purchase a shape that is marketed as petite/short...the proportions are still off?
  8. Quinn, very cute pic! I don't wear hats, I like my hair to come shining through
  9. Pamela Galli wrote: I love fall, but it's hard to even remember what the fall is like when it's 107. I remember there is some other feeling besides "oven blast" but can't recall what it was like. Looking forward to the cold snap we will get on Thurs when it will only be 98. Wheeeee! The weather broke here the last few days, low 70's...blissful, but today forcasted to be 90 and for the two days after that, 95

Yea, the local orchard I mentioned earlier, also has donuts with pumpkin frosting...delish!! I'm totally with you on the sweater & cuddling :matte-motes-wink:

  13. Parhelion...if it wouldn't be an imposition, I would love to see the finished product this year. Perhaps an LM when you are finished?
  14. Parhelion Palou wrote: Autumn is definitely my favorite time of year. I love the cooler, dryer days and even cooler nights. I love the colors of the leaves. I like all the holidays (days off) too. :matte-motes-evil-grin: I do decorate for autumn in SL, but it's too soon for this year. Here are a couple shots from last year. Absolutely breathtaking...wonderful job!

  19. Yeah, Keli & Void, I know what you mean...lived on the west coast of Florida for 12 years. The snowbirds can drive you batty
  20. Oh...so cool, Jesica, about the parade. Will keep my eyes open for it, never thought to see if there was an SL version. Thanks

Sometimes even get a bonus as a kid drops their bag while running away. ;^} Lol, Knutz...this actually made me chuckle. Poor tykes
  22. Liisa Runo wrote: Kids never come to visit me at halloween... They skip my house. Maybe it is cause my house is old and not in best condition. Looks like haunted house all year round. And the lady who live in the house with her cat has black hair, black lipstick and nails, and black woolen dress. Maybe i should get old fashioned broom and a pointy hat to finish the look. Pics or it doesn't happen
