My Place In Second Life Is Back!

Monday, May 5th, 2008

Yesterday, I found my little and very humble place in Second Life GONE! For no apparent reason (if there was any then I surely didn’t know about it), all my objects were returned to me. I asked Richard Palace about it by sending him an instant message which, unfortunately, he did not receive but, at least, now he knows about it.

Anyway, complaining (I’m not really complaining) about it will not return my objects back to their original places, so I spent a few hours today returning (almost) everything back to where they were before. Well, not exactly to where they were. You see, I kinda did a little rearranging of the place and I also removed some objects which I don’t really need and brought back the nature look. (more…)

My New Skin

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

Before, I thought that I would never buy a new skin but I was wrong. Today, I found myself shopping for a new skin and using Second Life’s new search tool I went from one store to another. My budget for a new skin was only 2,000L$ and I told myself that I would not spend anything more than that. I found some shops that sell skins for only 500L$ and another for 700L$. I even saw some that were selling at 250L$ to 350L$ but I didn’t buy from them because many of them looked copied.

While I was searching for more skin shops, Isadora Fiddlesticks of HodgePodge Magazine ecstatically blurted out in the Filipino group chat how beautiful the skins in Minnu were. I immediately searched for Minnu, found it and teleported there. I found her looking at some female skins and she even tried one. I then left her and went to the Male section of the shop. There weren’t too many selections but at first glance I know that these were the skins I was looking for.

I selected the shaved tan skin style, paid the vendor, got the skin and wore it afterwards.

The skin cost 1,500L$ and I think it’s worth every linden dollars because the skin looked really good on my avatar.

Now my avatar has some material value. The elites of Second Life will now stop treating my avatar like a newbie and treat it more seriously. Who knows they might even accept me into their social circles! LOL! :D

Shoes and Eyeglasses

Sunday, December 9th, 2007

To complete my new outfit, I also need to find and buy a new pair of shoes and eyeglasses so again I hit search. I first searched for a pair of formal shoes though I easily found some shops but their shoes wasn’t really that good for the price they are offering. My search led me to SF Designs and there I found a very nice looking pair of shoes called SFD Tripper Lace Ups. It’s only 200L$ and it looks really nice. There were 3 sizes (small, medium and large) so to make sure that it fits my avatars appearance I tried the demo first and the medium size fits perfectly.

For the eyeglasses, I went to the shop that loaded fast, the ones I first went to took a lot of time to rez, and that was the primOptic shop. The eyeglasses are scripted but I don’t see myself using any of its many features.

I guess that will conclude my personal shopping for the moment and my tip to everyone, if there is a demo version of the item you wish to buy then don’t hesitate to try the demo first because it will save you linden dollars. It’s very disappointing to buy something then upon wearing it you’ll see that the item doesn’t look good on you! So always remember to try before you buy! ;)

Cutouts

Monday, November 5th, 2007

A few days ago I tried my hands on doing some cutouts. Cutouts are images, pictures or photos that were carefully and cleanly (at least some are) cut around its edge, uploaded as a texture and placed on a prim. They are mainly used as decorations. I got the idea from AlphaQ Kidd who used to have a vendor at 3 Stars and a Sun. (more…)
