  1. Also I just used Old World for a vegetable patch at my mainland and I really love it - have to admit I have not decorated any Newbrooke - if you will forgive non linden home you can see the temperate shrubs from skye and the hpmd in the second photo and the veggie patch in the first

  2. I would say Studio Skye, HPMD, Heart and Felix landscaping and lots of content pack items from all of the themes. The log home ivy is particularly good as are the plants. Mind you it is one thing having these items but knowing what to do with them is another. I regularly break up Skye items to use in different ways - their realistic water can't be beaten.

  3. My projects were all just fun things for engagement - which happened and so I see them as worthwhile but yes I can see they don't have broad appeal - I think in terms of having more land allowance to create a public space, really go to town on the design and creation - that would have been desirable to me but I guess, desirable to everyone. I've moved on a little from Bellisseria generally in my head and made my peace with not having a public space.

  4. I wanted to pitch weekly or monthly market area - for residents to pitch up at the same time, run a stall, chat, meet new people etc. I've run similar in other estates and people like it because they can make money, shop for new stuff, clean up their inventory, meet new people in the community and be a part of an event. Not a new SL idea! But reading your post and acknowledging that it is just another "shopping" angle put me off. Anytime I have run an attraction in Bellisseria like The Cabinet of Curiosities and the Houseboat Coffee Shop I have met new people and would have regulars popping by so now am not sure if I would run attempt something like that again...

    I really must get to grips with EEP…

    I use a certain windlight called Toasty and then I use my favourite Flickr filter and add exposure so mainly done outside of SL :)

    I renewed my premium the other day when I heard about the new container homes. I abandoned two of them the last one being near the water but not close enough to the water. So tonight I lucked up and grabbed a houseboat that I was sure none would be available after all this time and bam I got one and I actually like the location. So for now, I'm happy.  I still have a rental I'm going to keep as it is on the beach, really cute, sailable and cheap!  

    My questions, are we allowed to put in our own houseboat that we got off the MP or do we have to stick with the the Linden Houseboats as the only options?  Also I'm am HORRIBLE when it comes to decorating.  Does anyone know where I might find pics of  houseboats for inspiration?

    You must use the linden houseboat - Pinterest is always a good source of inspiration but there are plenty  of forumers here who have decorated boats - keep an eye on the linden home photo threads. For my own boat attempts follow link in signature :)

    Do you succeed often? Or not, as you emoj shows?

    I wish LL could let us transfer homes. At least between the same account holder. I could be sure to send the Stilt on Pier to an alt. I think they could let us have that benefit, maybe once in a month. I understand they can't do it for us over and over again.

    I succeed 90% of the time I just added a little pensive to show I wasn't super proud of myself! 

    When it goes wrong it is mainly because I have miscalculated tries and have run out on the account who wants to catch. One of the big things I would say is that I would rarely try this during a major theme release

  8. Looking forward to seeing some 512 moderns - I got hold of the content pack and really happy with the chair /sofa /table, the planters and all of the peace lilies etc, Not keeping a modern though so am eager to see the designs others have done - edit : just having my first look around Newbank - the addition of wildlife (ducks, bunnies etc) really makes a positive difference would hope to see some more of that in a camper revisitation!

    Plus they little island that suddenly was rising from the sea

    That is the auction winner island I think? 

    Some "winner" areas for me in earlier parts would be anything facing Light of Aurelia lighthouse, Bellisseria Bay views, Fourze lighthouse area or short range view of, or some boats up in the Esper and Sutherfield regions or homes around Washburn. But it is only because the nostalgia of watching all that unfold and being built. 

    When I had a Light of Aurelia property and a Gangway boat they were building the island over the water...

    I am sorry to hear of your experiences. I have experienced similar, not in Bellisseria, but in a university group I was part of in SL a long time ago now. The worst thing for me was the one person I thought of as a friend was using alts to lead the bullying. Once I realised that, it was easy to just extricate myself from the lot of them. And like you did, I concentrated more on my RL community which made me realise very quickly how irrelevant to me these people were. I did enact a kind of revenge by alerting the university of what was going on (I was driven more by ensuring no more students had the experience I and others had, than revenge) and their 'community' was removed. The teaching sites are still there but the 'housing' for students was soon removed. There were actually only the handful of bullies left using that space anyway, due to the behaviour of these mean spirited, little people. Once I moved on, like you, I just have fun in SL and I enjoy it more than ever. Can't say I trust anyone though lol but that's not a problem for me.

    Alts to lead the bullying - that is the major problem for me. One person can be several personalities. Sorry to hear of your experience - apologies for slight de rail of the thread!!!

    @Chloe BunnyYou certainly lucked out with that view. Looks great!

    Thanks - I moved on and got a boat so I can do underwater gardens - someone else has this spectacular view now - one of the best views in Bellisseria, (there are many though!)

    I always go back and forth ...   own mainland for awhile,  get tired of paying the extra for something only I see/visit....   go back to just having a Linden Home,   shuffle thru them from time to time hoping to find a really good one - that has yet to happen....

     

    Then I go back and spend money on mainland...   think about renting from someone instead but - don't want to give up premium (not sure why)......

    me = perpetually undecided

    I do this too I think I was on a quest at one point for a community to join that was more focused than Bellisseria - I found some good ones and some ones which were not a good fit but then the one I thought was an excellent fit I was pushed out by means of bullying. I wish there was some way to deal with issues surrounding bullying in online communities it can be so subtle but easy to fall prey to and so damaging. In the end I realised it was better to focus more on my RL communities and accept the Bellisseria community is as it is. I've made some great friends through Linden Homes and I can't quite drop them altogether they are too much fun at the end of the day. Have a lovely piece of mainland too not sure what to do with it right now. With the world as it is I would rather claw back some of my £ and limit my virtual escape time. Keeping one Linden Home only.
