I’m an Alli and Ali fan, no doubt about it 🙂 Their Fire colour is my favourite, can you tell?
Every so often, A&A do a photo contest, generally themed on the seasons. The 10 best photos selected win a L$2000 gift card to the store.
Last contest, I was honoured to have not one but two photos selected in the top 10, one of me and one of Aeon! But even more pleasing is that the picture on A&A’s landmark at the moment is of yours truly!
Here’s the original…
October is breast cancer awareness month. The statistics on the disease are frightening, with an estimated case diagnosed every 2 minutes in the United State alone, according to the American Cancer Society. Current trends are positive though, with the breast cancer death rate down 34% since 1990!
Please, learn how to do a breast self examination, and get a mammogram once a year after you turn 40. Early detection tests for breast cancer save thousands of lives each year, and many more lives could be saved if even more women and their doctors took advantage of these tests.
Wear your ribbon in October to help spread the word.
My ribbon was a gift from Chop Zuey last October, and while it doesn’t appear to be available in store at the moment, there are lots of others on the marketplace for FREE, see here, here, and here.
The leaves are turning as we watch the oncoming fall. I’d like to highlight my wings today. They are by AVRO Wings, who sadly have closed their in-world store, but all their items are still available on the marketplace.
You can change the color of these wings with menu available on touch, and there are over sixty colors to pick from, so you can always find a match to what you are wearing (if you like to wear wings all the time like some people I know) 🙂
You can also turn flapping on and off with a simple chat command.
Very versatile!
A lot of Carrie’s Lingerie older items have had Slink Appliers added to them in the last couple of months. If you own an older outfit (I had Val in black from winning a gift voucher over a year ago), try asking the redelivery terminal to redeliver your purchases to get the updated package with appliers.
Also as a member of Carrie’s group, a group only Midnight Mania board is available to you on the right hand side of the store. The group is FREE to join. Yesterday was the Variety set in black and white 🙂
A couple of great freebies for you today! Firstly, a gift for SL Frees & Offers members, the jacket is called Maxima, and is available now for FREE at Hilly Haalan. Just what you need for a quiet night out now that the fall season is upon us and the weather is getting a little cooler.
The necklace is a hunt item from Beloved. There are ten hunt items to be found at the in-store hunt, celebrating the opening of their updated store. All are available for FREE and the hunt runs through 4th October. Don’t miss out!
The ten items go to make up three very nice sets. The one I’m wearing in the photo comprises the necklace, matching earrings, and right and left hand bracelets and rings!
A nice pair of sandals by Like Design called “Wrapped Up” for Slink High inspired these photos at Sparta, a large role play sim which is worth a look for the detail on the buildings alone.
I just picked up this beautiful silver rose bracelet from Marianela’s Art in Fashion at the Zuri Fall Hunt for L$10. What a wonderfully detailed piece.
We celebrated our first wedding anniversary last weekend, and our wonderful sisters at Eden put on a lovely party for us today! A special thanks to our great friend Dana for DJing the event!
I thought I would let you know what I was wearing for a lovely few hours dancing with Aeon and all our guests. The beautiful champagne colored dress is from Azul, who makes just the most amazing clothes. My jewelry is from Beloved, one of my favorite designers in SL. And hair is A&A, also a fav.
In the second picture, Aeon and I are wearing matching bracelets from JCNY and our ring, which was designed and made by my beautiful Aeon!
When I first started exploring SL, I quickly noticed how fixed in place a lot of ambient sounds were. This sounded very unnatural to me, especially with bird sound. It’s bad enough that most sim owners use the same set of eight or so full perm audio clips, let alone that the birds don’t move anywhere!
I started thinking about a script to move bird sounds around the sim dynamically, and after a while, a script I call Blue’s Fantasy Sound in Flight was born. Little did I know it was to be my nemesis for over a month while I struggled with understanding how to rez and keep track of multiple objects in LSL.
The system automatically maps the parcel that it is running on, even if the parcel is spread out over the sim in non-adjoining sections, and then moves a specific number of sound sources around. You can even support multiple heights with the one script, so if you have a skybox at 2000 metres, you can use the object containing the script you rezzed at ground level to play ambient sounds there too!
The script uses temp rez objects, so only the bird box itself impacts your prim count for only 1 LI.
The script will work right out of the box, or you can modify the example notecards to customize where the sounds are played.
I modeled the bird box that contains the script to fit a Grizzly Creek Cut-Throat Finch, a great little freebie!
Every parcel owner needs one of these 🙂
