Maybe I should make something....

No hope

Fun with gimp scripts! And now spelled correctly!

We got a makeover!

I'm trying to prettify things.  New typeface for the signage, new blog look.

I'll even try to make a few animations in the coming weeks.

Also I hear the animation loop bug might be getting worked on! Oh and something about 80% of the grid not seeing mesh. Which really makes it hard for me to get excited about making mesh items.

So I got arrested for my 50th post

I spent far far too long figuring out crazy ways to make the height chart on the lineup wall accurate. Mostly because math and I don't get along that great. We eventually came to an understanding and it's pretty close. It also has a projected light attachment for casting the shadows up a bit.

If you want it to be a bit more fun, I suggest replacing the poses with the offensive pose pack.

No hitting below the belt

I can't really say I've done a lot of SL boxing...
But, I appreciate The Sweet Science. So without further innuendo.

I tried getting it to work on the male mesh and failed miserably, so only in female for right now. It's 99L and on the 2nd floor balcony.

 And totally unrelated, but totally awesome:
What do you do when you lose your island because your landlord accidentally sold it to someone else?
Well - after the tears about having to rebuild everything.
Some friends of mine recently went through that, and I was amazed and inspired by how they handled it.
They staged an invasion...And made something beautiful for a few days.

So, next time you lose an island, if you get a new one... Do something stupid. And by stupid I mean fun.

I just wanted to say thanks

I actually made the pose and cardboard sign to write a thank you note to a friend, but it seemed so silly to not let someone else use my idea, so when you have something to say, or need free linden's, Just put on your cardboard sign, or turn it into white paper, and let the person know what you are thinking. (I put two versions of the pose in box as well)

Are you feeling lucky punk?

I used to love lucky chair camping.  Since traffic has become a meaningless statistic, I tried to figure what I liked and didn't like about lucky prize chairs and make a better one.

I liked the randomness and uncertainty of being the next winner, but I wanted more chances... So I figured, why not make so you can bribe the chair for extra chances. I saw a person wandering around a sim once named 9lives who was moaning no lucky chair ever came up with her name, so I added the option to allow numbers in names.  I hated how each letter appears ever so slowly, so I figured out a way to res them all at once, goodbye fuzzy letters! I also wanted to make the chair as prim small as possible. I was in a tiny store when I started making it and I'm not sure how I did at 6 prims, I've thought of a few ways since I made it to bring it down to 4 prims, but I'm not sure it would look as decent as it does right now.

So I started scripting... and scripted... and scripted some more.  Once my fingers stopped bleeding, I scripted some more... About that time I realized I had done it all wrong and restarted, after four more restarts, I finally started to get past, "Hello, Avatar!" and eventually out of  my inability to script, I learned a lot. Scripting a project to learn more about scripting was very rewarding, it left me feeling like I could tackle almost any project (especially one without a lot of math), and come up with a solution.

I left the chair running in my store for the past year or so and in a few friends locations, and no one had any issues, so I now am offering the chair to everyone. For free.

The bribing option is optional, and I do have the script set to give me 20% of whatever is bribed into the chair. But hey, the chair is free.

It's available in the lucky chair in my store and on the SLmarketplace. As always, remember to pick up Eloh Eliot's free skin packs while you are there.  And take a gigglelook at the new offensive pose pack.
