Less than a day after my custom order from Soda skins, the skin was ready for pick-up! I’ve convinced my friend Wilma to pose with me in her customized skin too. 🙂
Wilma was getting impatient with me for flipping her through a billion poses, lol!
We love our new Soda skins!! It looks even better in-world than on the website.

This has been a really fun and positive experience. I would totally recommend it to all my friends, having gone through it myself and getting great and speedy service.

Truth has a new color pack out! It’s crazy cute! You can see the new colors here on my COLORS blog.
A pack of Cleo that includes all the new colors & streaked versions is available for free in Truth’s subscribo if you want to try out the new hair colors 🙂
Someone just informed me that the sample pack has been removed, but you can still try a demo! Don’t forget to join the subscribo so you don’t miss out on goodies like this next time!
Thanks everyone for your suggestions!! I have tons of Barnesworth’s prefabs for my shops so I decided to go with a different builder this time. I am keeping my eye out on his latest unfinished villa though, it looks nice! The home I chose for my beachy parcel is the Fallingbridge Villa by Tya Fallingbridge of Pixel Mode. I bought this home is because the textures are neutral, it goes well on my beach and the bedroom set looks exactly like my parents bedroom set!! It’s kind of cool and creepy at the same time 😛

This home was pretty easy to rez, but I had some issues with the doors constantly closing on me, so I replaced all the doors with a script that would open and close the door on touch only. The script that came with the house automatically closed doors but I’m too lazy to open the doors so I changed all the scripts.
Heyyyyyy you guys! I went to The North Pole! This location is fantastic if you’re looking for some place with Winter activities and lots of scenic spots for photos!
I wore the new Fur Neck Cardigan from Fishy Strawberry, and accessorized it with the Happy Bow (color change) necklace from Dark Mouse. I’m wearing Pink cos it’s sooo festive, and matches the mood of this Winter Wonderland perfectly.
Hello from Newbrooke! These new modern-style homes are available in 512 or 1024 sqm. I don’t love these homes, but I’m warming up to them! There’s a lot of potential here, especially if you like the modern aesthetics. Like previous themes, you can choose to have any Newbrooke home style on your land.

I’m absolutely loving ReShade! I recently started exploring it, and I’ve noticed a lot of SL residents using it to enhance their snapshots. However, there are some downsides. It can be a bit tricky to use, and you’re limited to taking screenshots at your display size rather than high-resolution images.
The graphics settings in Second Life have improved significantly over time. With certain third-party viewers, you can access features like depth of field, tonemapping, and color grading, which means that while ReShade is still entertaining to play with, it’s not as essential as it once was. That said, it can create stunningly ethereal effects, making your photos truly pop! See all of my ReShdae snapshots on Flickr.
ReShade is a generic post-processing injector for games and video software developed by crosire. Imagine your favorite game with ambient occlusion, real depth of field effects, color correction and more … ReShade exposes an automated and generic way to access both frame color and depth information (latter is automatically disabled during multiplayer to prevent exploitation) and all the tools to make it happen.

If you’re curious about experimenting with ReShade in Second Life, there are plenty of tutorials out there to help you get started. I began my journey with it back in May but got sidetracked by PBR. I’m still on the lookout for my favorite ReShade add-ons, so if you have any suggestions, drop them in the comments!
Now, let’s discuss my look for today. I’m a huge fan of Wings hair, but I’ve noticed lately that the bangs sit very closely against my face and lashes, leading to some stubborn alpha glitches. I really think the designer should consider tweaking the front strands to sit a bit further from the face, or at least provide some customization options.
I usually tackle alpha glitches in my photos, which is why I always recommend demoing hair before you buy. I’ve adjusted my shape and face somewhat, but I’m not keen on widening my face just to make this hairstyle work. Finding the perfect fit is crucial!
