Head Mistress released five adorable styles at Hair Fair!! They are Carlita, Beautiful Disaster, April, Cyndi, and Alica. Kimmie Mosten definitely has gotten better at making sculpted hair, from when I was first introduced to her shop a couple of months ago. I like the two long wavy hairstyles because the prims do not sink into the shoulder, perfect for taking sexay photos!
You may have seen Second Life creators selling images made with Midjourney, but what is it? Midjourney is a computer program that uses artificial intelligence to make pictures based on text prompts. At the moment, the bot on Discord is the only way to use Midjourney. I paid $10 a month to play around with the program. It’s a lot of fun to have AI make anything you can think of right away, but sometimes the results are weird.
Most of the images I’ve made are based on my Second Life avatar. I use a photo of my avatar as a reference, then I add a text prompt to try to make something more detailed than what I can do in Second Life or in photoshop.

Yesterday when I logged in to SL, I received a bunch of notices alerting me that iheartsl was down. When I checked the dashboard, I did not see any "messages" from wordpress.com about any issue that needed to be resolved, so I tried to get in touch with support. Finally, after the blog was suspended someone wrote me back to let me know that the advertisements on iheartsl was a TOS violation, but I didn't have a chance to remove them? Apparently support had been in contact with someone who is not me for a month and that person promised they would be removed (very puzzling).
That's why I moved the site off wordpress.com, because I had no choice. Over 650+ authors were signed up at iheartsl at the time and not having iheartsl would mean that a lot of people would not have a place to send their blog entries. For some, iheartsl was the only website they blogged on and/or were syndicated at, so I spent all evening moving the site over to Media Temple hosting.
I know that some people liked that iheartsl had a community feel, because readers can leave comments on posts and interact with each other. But, since iheartsl has the resources to syndicate again (which we originally did back in January 2008), I have decided to do that instead of requiring people to sign up as authors first. Even though readers lose the ability to comment directly on each post, the bloggers now have the added convenience of not having to manually re-post on iheartsl.
I'm currently working with support to get the iheartsl (wordpress) site back online so I can link to it, but I cannot import all 16,000+ blog entries because it exceeds the upload limit by A LOT! The wordpress upload limit for imports is 2MB, and with 16,000 blog entries the back-up file was 72MB, but I do have a copy of it if anybody can figure out how I can put it on, at least we would have an "archives" site and be able to restore all the comments from the past 2 years.
I should also mention that I have made the decision to not syndicate iheartsl to fashionplanet anymore, since it would result in a lot of double-posts. And besides, iheartsl gets more traffic than fashionplanet and I'm positive that it will be more inclusive since Tao has not updated the site with new requests since last year.
Anyways, I hope that clears up the situation a bit. I worked really
hard to restore iheartsl back to a functional state when I figured that
it probably won't be able to come back on wordpress.com, and I hope
that it continues to be useful to many of SL's bloggers.
If you haven't submitted your site for syndication, do it! 🙂
Donna Flora – Tarina tiara | Elvira tiara
Donna Flora is one of my favorite jewelers on the grid. Ever since I discovered her brand during a hunt a couple of years ago, I’ve been hooked! I like jewelry that’s elegant and realistic; and if you photograph Donna Flora’s jewelry in the right lighting, it would be hard to tell if it was SL or RL.
I’ll show you a couple of the pieces available but this is just 1/3rd of the new stuff from Donna Flora!

It’s officially winter in SL! Even though we’re just days away from Christmas, I am not very in the mood this year. I’m hoping that by going to winter sims and making festive winter outfits, it will inspire me to get in the mood! I’ve started collecting some Christmas decor for my home, like this X’mas Magic ornament set from Ohmai. SL creators are so creative, they really make this virtual world the best place ever.
What I’m Wearing:
LOGO Alex Mesh Head
Pink Fuel – Kiyomi
Truth Hair – Bernadette (Hat)
The Secret Store – Katya Sweater (Crimson)
The Secret Store – Masha Pants (Red Polka)

Swallowtail has been quiet for quite some time, but I’m delighted to discover that this brand is back with a lovely new accessory. The Flower Crown & matching flower bracelet is a mesh item, and it is gorgeous.
I’m trying to take more photos on location again (instead of just my plain wall), so I went to Zigana, and it is a stunning sim!
Check out these lovely new Storm Sandals from Gos. Every component of this sandal is scripted to color or texture change. I kept it simple by texturing all the components with a Stone Suede texture, but you could certainly go crazy with this and create a personalized color scheme.

It’s difficult to celebrate Halloween in SL cos throughout the year, I feel like I have lots of opportunities to ‘dress up’ already! All those fabulous RP looks, and crazy cute costumes. If I were to dress up in SL, I would choose a kawaii costume.
