@Love Zhaoying, Touchè

Granted, you can get started making music - humming a tune that's stuck in your head. Unfortunately, it's an old jingle from a TV commercial, and you can't think of any other music because of this.

I wish I could own a dog again.

Granted. But it is the toy pull along type.

I wish the total eclipse of the sun had been here in the UK

Is it true that Duran Duran had SL accounts and played live here? 😮

And to cross reference Claireschen's post, this from Duran Duran's official website.

50 m sea level would be cool too. People would start wanting Log Homes.

Linden Lab probably missed a trick this year. They could have said they were going to introduce new character floating homes, choice of rubber duckies or flamingo birdies. Not moored, but floating aimlessly around the waterlands of Second Life, but the owners would have a HUD with which to locate their home.

Three years ago in one of the Linden Homes regions - which used to be left empty for testing I guess/think (Millbank) - they built some Eastern Bloc style flats. I revisited just now to find this... Halloween hunt!

I forgot what day it was! And this didn't seem all that unlikely to me anyway. But they got me good. LOL

Not a crush, but definitely I greatly admired and always will remember this avatar I met in 2011. They looked magnificent. My avatar on the right is something like 6 feet 7 inches tall, so that gives you some idea of the scale.

Sadly this old photo does not do it justice.

I've noticed that the number one frustration noobs have is the inability to customize their av. I try to explain it and even do screen shares and half of them do not get it at all. Guys will take meme avs, but women absolutely want a normal person av, and it's frustrating to not have an attractive stylish av. I know mesh bodies are weird, but it's interesting how the basic systems are also confusing. What's your experience with this?

I know for sure that if I was to have become a resident of Second Life over recent years instead of in 2007 the faffy nature of modern mesh avatars would have totally put me off. As it is I feel so much less inclined to bother logging in because of it. Do people really enjoy all the extra work it takes to always be tweaking and modifying and changing mesh avatars, because I just feel it's too much of a time drain.

So here I am, in a system avatar, which I don't find confusing at all. Same old shape. Old skin now. Just occasionally change the clothing.
