You guys are so awesome!! Thank you for answering my hair color poll, it will help me decide which hair color(s) to wear more going forward. I thought people might be bored of seeing Blonde on me, but so far it has the most votes!
Today I’m wearing an unnatural hair color, cos I think it really goes well with the color scheme of this outfit. I just love the Dominique 2 hairstyle from Wasabi Pills, it frames the face very nicely.
Hucci has a new collection of short mesh dresses out! I’m wearing the Cinnamon Dress, it’s oh so colorful, and pairing it with the new Hucci Kayla Pumps.
The Avatar Welcome Pack is now available in the library and is free for all residents. To use it, copy the entire pack from the library into your inventory. I decided to challenge myself by dressing from head to toe in free items. Additionally, SeraPlus, the newly released gift pack from Seraphim, is also available. However, this gift pack is for paid residents only, meaning you need to be a Plus, Premium, or Premium Plus member to access it. I chose to mix and match items from both of these packs to create my version of Gogo Lite. Given the limitations of this mesh head and body, I think I did fairly well.
Almost immediately, I noticed that because I was using the lite Avalon head, I lack a HUD to control various features – can’t change lashes, expressions, HD makeups, etc. Furthermore, some of the shape sliders for facial adjustments are disabled. While I could edit about 90% of the features, one slider I really wanted to use, the chin depth slider, was unfortunately unavailable.
UPDATE: You can edit the chin slider and all of the sliders if you wear ANY BODY that is not Legacy Lite. I was able to edit the Avalon Lite head when I’m wearing the Maitreya LaraX body.
This is my first time wearing Legacy, so I can’t provide an informed opinion about it. Since it was free, I took the opportunity. However, I spent quite some time searching for a long sleeve alpha to cover my elbows, which were poking through the top; this was not included in Riot’s package. I assume the SeraPlus gift is aimed at residents with the full Legacy body, but if you search for it, you can likely find a free alpha to hide the arms. I also added a random shorts alpha to maintain modesty, as there were instances where private areas peeked through in various poses.
As for the Avatar Welcome Pack, while they stated that HUDs were omitted to simplify things for new residents, I believe HUDs are crucial for learning. It would have been beneficial to include at least some HUDs or controls. Though I find the free body and head adequate, the inability to hide certain body parts is a significant limitation. To top it off, I noticed I don’t have any fingernails, and the nails on the body skin I’m wearing is a hot mess on the Legacy lite body.
Overall, whether you’re a new resident or an experienced player looking spruce up your avatar, the Avatar Welcome Pack provides lots of items to get you started. If you prefer not to spend any money at all, I recommend checking out FabFree for all the latest freebie offerings.
I’m back on the SL ENVIRONMENTAL ENHANCEMENT PROJECT (EEP) viewer! If any of the developers are reading this, I don’t like the sun and moon sphere. I want sliders back! I also want the drop-down menu for Windlights back, so I can easily scroll through all of my EEP settings without right clicking to apply every single time. Also, why are my appliers appearing shaded? It’s very noticeable on the “onion skin layer” of the lips. I can’t get any of my lipstick colors to appear the way they did before EEP, without pointing the sun directly AT my face.
I just wish I had more time to blog, cos the things released in SL now are the best they have ever been. I’ve worn my dynamic SLink hands exclusively, and buying new nail polishes to add to my huge collection. I bought the new SLink ballerina style nails (@ Skin Fair), and it’s such a nice change from the default shapes. I can’t wait for more rounded nail tips!
Teefy released this adorable Simone Dress (@ N21); I love the pattern! I am pairing my outfit with the Asuka hair from Truth (@ Uber), and wearing the hat cos it has a shade of blue that matches perfectly with my dress.
Psst.. rainbows for everyone! From now until September 1st, you can get a free copy of my popular Rainbow EEP settings at the Aurelias Rainy Cafe. It’s on the counter inside the cafe.
I’ve been wanting to update the pack to include N/S/E/W directions for the Cheery Day setting. Today I found out that Linden Lab is using the Cheery Day setting on the debug regions, so I decided to update the pack and give it away for a week. If you previously purchased this, you can get a FREE update on Marketplace.
I’m thrilled about inZOI, a new life simulation game developed by Krafton, Inc. This game offers a plethora of creative freedom, reminiscent of The Sims. You can design characters, craft the environment, and shape the world to your heart’s desire.
As I’m currently experimenting with the demo version of inZOI Character Studio on Steam, I must say I’m already very impressed. Creating characters is a breeze with an array of customizable options. You can alter your face and body, and choose to be male, female, a child, or an elderly person—anything you desire within human form. The selection of hair styles, clothing, and accessories is impressive, with some items even offering color customization.
I am eagerly anticipating the release of the full game to explore beyond character creation. While I’m not an avid gamer, I adore the thought of standing around, taking photos, and changing outfits. Unfortunately, it appears to be a single-player game, which is a bit of a letdown as I was hoping to enjoy it with friends.
One of my favorite features is the built-in photo studio, complete with facial expressions, body poses, and even a few dancing animations. I can see myself ‘playing’ this game for an extended period, focusing solely on creating daily outfits.
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.
That hair color looks fantastic on you!
