Nefertiti Nefarious

I'm collecting a bunch of stuff, and when my shopping cart filled up, I boufght everything. Marketplace confirmed the buy and showed me the invoice. But I can't buy anything else because the cart still has those 10 items.

Where in Arizona is the hospice - if it's in Phoenix or one of the nearby towns I can get it to him. Here's how we can do this: 1 - You UPLOAD the file somewhere, or e-mail it to the e-maill addy I give you (IM inworld) and let me know where it is 2 - I download and burn it to a CD 3 - I take it to the hospice and leave it for him at the front desk.

Look at various dance animations, and sports gestures. Attach a cape and it might work.

Because according to the law, after the takedown, the one complaining of infringement has a certain length of time to file a legal complaint about the infringement in a real court. If you don't do that ... they HAVE to restore the content.

How can I grow my store business to make more content, Easy ... for the next month, make new stuff! Just new stuff. Send out a notice that tells your fans that, and lock yuour doors and create. Simplify your ads - make a nice template and reuse it. Save the creativity for the products. Automate sending notices if possible.

Is it worth it though? Are sales still strong? Is the market dying or staying flat? Is it possible with steady hard work to make good livable money or would I be better off forgetting it? Part of the equation is what do you consider "good, livable money"? As a hobby that makes a pittance ... it works for me. My SL income pays for my premium account, the tier for my "shop" and I can cash out a bit every year. If I put more effort into it, I could make more money ... right now I don't have the time.

When buying clothing, lets say a dress, skirt or top for ladies or a sweater or pants for guys do you prefer to buy individual colors of that item of clothing with the option to buy a fat pack or do you prefer to buy something texture changeable via hud or menu for a higher price than one color but lower than a fatpack? Individual colors with a fat pack. I absolutely HATE texture change HUDs ... unless they are done well, they conflict with other HUDs.

So, did this work as a way to get sales right in the store? I have a landscaped parcel with some of my iotems used in the actual landscaping and some buildings that display most of the rest of the items. I did it not to sell things, but so I could see how things workled and looked in-world.

I had just recently received a message from another store owner that because the name of a product line in my alt's store and her store's name are the same (except for one capitalized letter) that she would like for me to change it, especially since hers has been around longer and she claims to have the name trademarked. I told her that since there is no conflict of interest between our two businesses that I have no intention of changing it at this time. She said she'll let her lawyers know. I did some snooping around to see what all her business was: 2. I found no proof of trademarking her store's name except for a "TM" in her store's group's description. Then again, not sure where I would look for official, legal proof of this either. uspto.gov has a searchable database of REGISTERED trademarks ... that's the only kind that matters. Search there. As for her lawyers, I think they exist only in her head.

I file my textures in categories but some textures can be in several such as red fabric that could go in one of my fabric categories as well as the color red. I rename the textures as I sort, and add title and description words so I can search for it. The trick is to use labels that mean something to you that will make it easier to sort out a small group of the 20,000 textures. Pattern (stripe, plaid, abstract) texture (knit, latex, sequin), color Your example would be in my fabric folder as a first sort, as opposed to the stone, glass, or wood folders, with name and key words to make it easier to find. Instead of Fab1234 it would be "Red white black Plaid" or "Red floral abstract" or "Red animal spots" or "Red white knit stripe" ... whatever. If I'm trying to retrieve that cute red plaid I vaguely remember, I can search the fabric folder for red plaid and a small group pops up for visual checking.

Visit my shop in-world. It's in my picks. Find the teleport to the classroom and take it. I have a tutorial on how to create textures for sculpted prims, and some supplies in the big vase. You should be able to start the tutorial by touching the display screen. Ignore the dancing ponies and the big fuzzy purple box

Lucas Scarborough wrote: My wife and I both create. On the Marketplace, the store is owned by me (as I couldn't find a way for us both to own it), but in-world, it is both of ours as we both put out items. Is there a way for her to upload her creations onto the marketplace store without me having to get them from her full perm, change the permissions, and then upload them as my own? Wouldn't that also be in violation of some terms of use for me to take ownership of her items full perm even if just to put on the marketplace? One way to do this is to have an avatar that does nothing but exist as a store "owner". The creators all have the password and log on as that avatar for packaging and uploading.

Rstan wrote: Yeah, but All I have need me, and I can't delete it. I need to have more prims or use optimization technology I spoke above it. The easiest "optimazation technology" is the delete key. Check every item you have rezzed and see if there are any prims in it you can remove without wrecking the looks. I turned a pretty Japanese lantern from 6 prims each to 2 prims. Because I have 8 of them rezzed, that's a large savings. I stripped out 2 prims from a 5-prim vendor. I have a couple dozen vendors, so that was awesome savings. Try grouping your plain prim objects and applying the physics of "convex hull" to them. Some of my displays of animals and statues, if grouped and with physics changed, went to 1/2 the LI they had previously. I did the same to my vendor huts. The rugs, the floor and the walls are grouped and convex hull applied. After that, look for items with lower Land Impact counts that will do the same job as a higher one.

If yo have "Christmas Giftbox" in yout title, people will find it with search.

For people in the USA is seems relatively simple. You fill in the form, including your SSN, send that to Linden Labs, and they deal with any tax-witholding and it gets applied to you tax liability. (OK, it isn't so simple, but it does mean the tax is paid on your behalf toi the IRS.) UH ... NO. If your withdrawals are over a certain figure, they just report you and your SSN or EIN to the IRS. It's up to you to keep track of the income and if necessary, pay any witholding tax on schedule.

That is, they must either have a payment on file or be a premium member AND have an in world store. Everyone on MP, not just the new kids on the block. That would not only get rid of a lot of MP thieves, it would help the in world economy. Boycott MP only stores! Why? Were DMCA problems any fewer when the magic boxes required people to have some place to rez the box? I don't remember it being better. Requiring all users to have verified payment information before they can open up a marketplace shop, or place items into search in-world might slow down the infringement. How would you define an "in-world store" ...

Can you post some pictures of the problem?

Syle Devin wrote: Now what I'm wondering about is if anyone has gone about marketing a product this way, or similar. If so was it successful? Or not? Also are there ways you have introduced new items other than just placing them in your store or on the marketplace? Any comments or suggestions in going about this are welcome also. Because I make decorative items (1-prim animals and statues), I gave them to the owners or managers of some popular theme sims to use in the decor if they wanted to. I was clear that it was a "no strings" gift because I thought it might look good in their place. The object had me as creator, and mt profile has a link to my in-world parcel and a link to my marketplace. Very low-key and I think it helped.

Search in -world ... I know there was a NaNoWriMo group a couple of years ago.

It can be several weeks to months between my taking a demo version and even trying it on. Then, if I like it, I'll buy the real version ... often on the marketplace, because I'm standing NAKED in my skybox trying on several dozen things. So unless you are tracking across marketplace and in-world, over a period of several months, you aren't going to see what's going on. Because I could look like a demo-only customer OR a full version only customer if the window is too small.

I do respond to any IMs about problems with the products as soon as I get the message. Sometimes I can only say, "I need to get back to a computer with a wired connection that can run SL before I can do anything for you, but I willtake care of it" but I do respond. It's quite a bit of "work" for a 9L chicken with glitched perms, but it's the professional way to do it.

Or are customers entitled to put whatever they want without any pressure being put on them by designers to change a review? I'll address the issue, and may comment on the review ... it's up to the customer what they decide to do with their review. I don't get all drama-llama if someone leaves a bad review.

Sirius Selona wrote: Here are two screen caps of the possible bots or alts that demonstrate part of the problem. The first screen cap was taken last light around 10:30pm Pacific time. These two male alts or bots float in the same place 24x7, never moving and always right on top of each other. If you try to chat with them, you never get a response. This cap was taken this morning about 5 minutes ago as I type this. The island is now crowded. Same two bots/alts in the same place as last night. Many, if not most of these avatars are not operated by individual people. They just appear all in a closely packed crowd like this. Some are online 24x7 but are hidden underwater sometimes. There is rarely, if ever any chat going on. Somewhere in that crowd is the person or people who attach the followers. I couldn't get a screen cap of a follower this morning, but will keep trying. What happens if you mute those avatars? Does that get rid of their objects too?

What are you offering to pay for the private instruction? There are free classes given by Builder's Brewery, NCI and Happy Hippos ... have you tried these?
