I don't know. It could be a new hobbit hole/Medieval type fantasy house like in the old Linden home areas. For the door person here - I know it's not round 😄 Wasn't the next theme suppose to be notably different? I hope it's something besides just another squarish house with different siding. I am hoping for something really different. I can dream on the Peter Pan/Neverland theme, though. How many different home styles would there be? Tree houses, houseboats (like floating pirate ships 😜) mermaid homes, fairy glens, mountains, cave homes. It could be an updated Elderglen. If it's some of the moles favorite, what would they enjoy building?

Caught this Vic a few days ago and finally had time to log in and see what I caught. It is in the middle of a lot of things, but you have the whole block to yourself and an amazing view. It'll be available at 8:30pm SLT http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Huddleston/128/41/32

I'd go for desert waste land if it included SL wind, random sandstorms and the occasional tumbleweed bouncing by. I'd really like some kind of modern or futuristic theme. I just got a houseboat (not my favorite style) and decided I would decorate in the least tropical/ocean theme possible. It looks like a space capsule inside with holographic plants and food rezzers. Now I need some kind of hoverboat to park outside.

Just tossing out a pre-emptive "I'm not missing." I've been evacuated from my home due to wildfires. I have a place to go and places for all my animals. I packed the important stuff and have a plan. I'll be back when I can and hopefully I'll still have my home when it's all over. CInn

Looks like a fun trip. Did you see some wildlife like alligators or snakes? I bet the birdwatching was fabulous. /me tosses a log on the fire and stirs the coals

Enjoy your extra time in the real world!

That is a pretty spot! Making that decision is always hard and I like hopping around as well. Do you have another home you can use while you hop around? Are you in a hurry to settle down? We all have different things we look for in a home. There is not enough privacy on that parcel for me, but you did get water which can be hard to find. You can always keep it a few days, set down a lawn chair outside and a couch inside and see how it feels.

I figured there was a reason, but I do not check in daily or even weekly to see the constant drama, so I miss a bit of continuity. In my naivety I just figured everyone wanted to create their own thread for whatever reason. I thought the original Vanity post was sufficiently named to create a space to show off the avatar that each of us has created in whatever perfect form we envision. It morphed into some of the most creative camera work and post editing art that we humans can imagine. Being a vanity thread it is suppose to call to a bit of our narcissism. It's there in the title. I love seeing the crazy, sexy, quirky looks that people have. Personally love the sexy looks of all genders - probably because I am so uncomfortable with it for myself. As far as objectifying each other - of course we are. Isn't that the point? We toss visuals only into these threads in whatever ideal we each have. We want others to see it and admire it or we wouldn't put them in a public location. In a way we objectify ourselves. I didn't realize you were no longer posting in the threads due to drama. I loved your intense look and photo style. Yup, hot stuff. Maybe you will choose to post again so I can quietly objectify you from corner I lurk in.

Regular mainland you can have whatever season you please for as long as you want. If you're talking about the planned communities like in Bellissaria, there may be more rules/suggestions like 1 month before and after a holiday/season. SL is all over the world though, so your winter is someone else's summer.

Is this suppose to be a sexy women thread? I have no idea of your intent and no one has asked you that I saw. I don't usually dress my av in a sexy manner, so here is a pic because you just asked women to post a photo for commenting. I would love a "men as eye candy" post though. *fans herself thinking of the sexy avatars some people put together*

I was hopping around yesterday and got a trad. My least favorite house design. It didn't look like much on the map and I assumed I'd catch and release, but I was pleasantly surprised. My closest neighbor is a camper. The lot is heavily wooded and private. There is a rocky hill on one side, a road in front, the railroad tracks on other side and overlooking a small river with a waterfall in back and a Linden owned community building at one of the corners. So, I will be giving a trad a try. Thanks to whoever released it.

I just want to point out that being "ran off" and choosing to not be a part of negativity are 2 different things. Either way a person is gone, but one leaves as a victim (flouncing) and the other is in control of their world and chooses a better path to take (adult).

The forums have always had their share of self-important, ultradefensive, and/or hyper emotional people. The seem to have some delusion of ownership over who can post and what they can post. The population here is no different than any group of people in real life. It stinks when good people get run off or just give up because it seems so pointless to even post at times. Humans generally fail at caring and having empathy for each other. It's way easier to attack anyone that disagrees and attempt to silence what makes you (general you) uncomfortable. Humans like easy so they just try to remove anything they don't want to or can't deal with.

Caught and released a log home, a Victorian, and a camper in the last 15 mins. Two of them appear to be stuck in maintenance.

I thought this would be keeper, but even after decorating, I'm not feeling it. Seaside Vic going back https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Reston Laurels/196/96/0

Letting this camper go in a couple minutes. Good privacy, lake across the street and small pond behind. (the yellow one) https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Huney Junction/140/172/0

I find myself hoping the new theme will just be beachy, so I can hang out, stress free and wait for nice abandons in log or vic regions. I've never liked the beach. BUT if it a lush, buggy, misty swamp, I'll have some hard decisions to make. I'd love an alligator or cotton mouth in my yard and lizards crawling up the side of my house (I'll skip the roaches in my corn flakes, though). I want to sing Jambalaya (on the Bayou) at the top of my lungs while poling my pirogue down the waterways... Okay, it's just a dream, but still. I started singing that song at work today and realized no one knows it but me. 😪

Caught this one this morning, so I thought I would let it go at night. Nice spot for a Vic. Small public area with benches and willows behind the house leading down to the water. https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Dombey/24/232/0 letting it go at 9:45 SLT

https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Quelzarana/160/188/0 Putting this log home back in a few minutes. If you choose the Grand View it faces the water.

Why would someone choose a cabin in the woods and cover the entire parcel with decking? Why pave paradise? You're in the woods. Go sit in the dirt. Why would someone choose a houseboat and then cover the parcel with fake land? Just get a spot on land and save yourself the trouble. Why do people put lag inducing, breeding farm animals on tiny parcels in suburbia like they have a farm? Geez, put them in the sky somewhere. That huge boat you rooted on your parcel then placed in the water far outside your parcel boundaries as a decoration is not convincing because the water is a very small pond that's not much bigger than a mudpuddle and your sails block everyone's views. Okay, done bitching now

This is nice! It always amazes me how other people see their inworld. I did however think that the How Do You Look Today thread was for raw shots and The Vanity Thread was for those who do editing. I realize it didn't turn out that way and super-processed photos are in both threads. Every photo I've ever posted anywhere in the forums is raw. Here's Z at home:

Since I got that ocean front one, I'm going to put back this pretty spot on a river. I've had it for a month and only decorated the outside. It just hasn't gotten my creative juices flowing and I want one hopper to check new stuff. https://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Tivoli/192/132/0 Going back at 5:30 SLT

Thanks! I'll stop chasing my tail now. Lovely spot. I've never had ocean front before.

I should know to just peek in here first, but I just kept clicking and wondering why I couldn't check out the Vic on the land page... Stuck, huh? Oh well...

First you need a skill to offer someone. What skills do you have? DJ, musician, CSR for a store, hostessing events, if you emote well there are escort or stripper options, can you build or create?
