My picture, as came to mind when I got challenged by Llazarus in another thread - in which he asked me to depict Bruce Springsteens wonderful " I am on fire' :

That sounds like an idea for a continuing thread, along the lines of "Challenge Caity".How about this as inspiration?Consider it a challenge accepted and I will give you the link, or post a pic in here, when I've done it!

I do not practice the Eleventh Commandment, I just had to google it and all that, but in case of a conflict stated as in your OP title, for me legality would win.

Dillon Levenque wrote:I mourn the passing of Terry Pratchett also.Interesting subject. I would guess a great many people have done things in SL that were inspired by their readings elsewhere, even if it was nothing more than wearing an avatar/outfit that was designed with a fictional character in mind. I like the way Second Life lets us do things like that.In a way quite a bit less creative than yours (as evidenced by that picture) I have done things in SL inspired by, in my case, mostly books. I once did, or started, a sort of photo-story thread on the Forum and drew most of my own contributions from all the espionage fiction I'd devoured when I was younger. I think I managed to drag ideas or scenarios from every single author I'd ever read in there. I even used some television material, giving my character an attitude like this guy's: Straight ahead, all the time.Edited because I forgot to include the picture.
I , too, think lots of people get inspired by the things they love, be it books, music or anything - which makes sense because obviously you enjoy those!
Personally I use a lot of songs and music when I make pictures in SL - except for my landscape images and photo's of art installations I visit - and lately I found I really like the Fantasy-like pics. Yes, because of the books I read but of course also because it is so easy nowadays in SL to get wonderful fantasy clothing and accessoires. For those pics, the fantasy ones, I also learned myself some postprocessing - also something I never did, it makes no sense to post-process or Photoshop a landscape for a showcase, it would not be fair - and found I love to play with those softwares as well. Half the fun of a pic for me is the post-processing which happens outside of SL
.I often get inspired by youtube-clips and find it a fun pasttime to try to recreate the looks of artists or depict the feeling of a song or a quote, not always a success but that's fine!

Yup, so a drama/attention thread. Oh well.

It is sad, but we have his stories. Did he inspire you too?

I think this more than anything is the cause for your loneliness.If you ask a question and get quite a few serious helpful responses and ignore them and give up, you will always be lonely. I was very lonely for a long time. One day I decided to open the map and randomly teleport to places. After about an hour of this, and saving LM for some beautiful places, I came across a sim that was full of people that were just chatting away. They were very welcoming and i am still part of that group many years later. If you can not even crack your wallflower shell or allow others to try, you will forever be alone.I am with Drake on this one. It seem Alicia chooses to be lonely and also likes to show it that way.The 'I give up' in this thread demonstrates it. I, for one, would by now not even want to meet her anymore. Drama in the making.Also, people who come here to announce their difficulty making friends almost invariably have profiles that would make sure no one would ever want to be friends with them.You made me look her up. The pick about depression was enough.
(No I dont hate ppl with depressions, and I do consider it serious, I just cannot deal with it well, that is my personal choice, no offense).

...., perhaps it wouldn't. But then again, what does?” ~Terry Pratchett - Guards! Guards!
I got introduced to Discworld by my friend Ratt and became a fan. Today Sir Terry Pratchett left our world, a wonderful author of fantasy, his books inspired me to do fantasy pictures in SL (although they do not depict any of his works). A loss yes, but there will always be his stories !
Do you have an author, artist, singer, movie or whatever that inspired you to do something with it in Second Life?

As a shopper, I do not take those kind of reviews serious at all, as they make no sense. Not for the creator and not for the shopper.

redfox12 wrote:Hi everybody, I currently have a job that I just started in SL and I just wanted to know how much everyone else is making on here. So please can you tell me how much lindens you make weekly and how are you making your lindens. Also what's the best way to make lindens. Is it starting your own business?
I tried to make Lindens with prims first, that went well. But then they introduced mesh and materials and I find it too hard to make mesh, good looking, dollars, so I gave up on that and now just use Amex.

I tried contact with her a few days ago when she was online, so please, don't judge me.Thank youAriel Vuissent, that was very helpful. I didn't test it in demo and it was my bad.The Marketplace description says very clearly it does not have nipples on the skin, but oh well. All you would need now is the right breasts and you are sorted.

Pamela Galli wrote:My new house looks much nicer with Advanced Lighting on. I know AL it can slow down lower-powered computers, so I try to make things look nice without it. But with this house, a shame not to see it with AL on.However, I don't get the impression that a high percentage of users have it on.Do you have it on or off? Say so here or use this survey (easier to collate data)I will post results, for those who care.
All the time. I 'live' my SL by default in high or ultra graphics so AL is always enabled (without DoF, that is for pics only) and I love stuff - buildings and decor mostly, clothes can look weird - that is made with materials!

Perhaps the obvious, but are you sure you are wearing the right breasts for the applier?

As an accidental by product of left leg invention, he could also be credited with inventing raambling.Smith and Wesson were the pseudonyms of Gilbert and Sullivan, which is why, in the director's cut of 'Dirty Harry', in a tribute to the Magnum 44's makers you see Clint, immediately after the, 'Do you feel lucky' soliloquy, carry on in his husky whisper;'For I am called Buttercup.

I never knew all of this. Thank you for ..well, filling my last braincells with this knowledge.

Mhm..well I don't have carpets in my house, its all tiled floors and floorheating...but yah, I can imagine when sports is on TV in some marriages that would be the perfect time to vacuum carpets for hours, as...what else is there to do?

Devlin Davis wrote:It was a pretty slow weekend for me with a mix of RL and SL but none the less fun.Friday night: Enjoyed a peaceful night hanging with friends in second life, going shopping, and taking longs walks in the beach (okay last one didn't happen). Followed by a triple date movie in SL watching "Birdman" at my house which was not what i expected, but not at all a bad movie.Saturday Morning and Afternoon was spent in real life. Went out to lunch with some friends, then took a nap until like 5pm sltSaturday Evening, it was a simple night hanging with friends at a sim underconstruction and talking up to like 5am in the morningSunday Morning/Afternoon, i watched a movie irl, "The Lazerus Effect" it was def an interesting movie, but wouldn't call it the best movie.Sunday Evening, had a picnic in SL, then heard Harry sing live at a vegas venue (in SL), and then ended the night watching another movie at my house with my significant other.
Sounds like a well spent and balanced weekend to me!
I have been clubbing in SL on Friday, but had to go to bed on a somewhat decent time as I had to work all Saturday. Saturday night I went to some clubs and a party and Sunday I, after doing some rl-work, did some pics, chatted with friends and listened to music in SL while writing some rl-stuff

Ooh, really? You are in SL during work?
While I could, easily even since I am self employed, I simply do not have the time for that...so I always look forward to my free-time to enjoy SL.
