Did you feel the love in SL yesterday? Designers across the grid gave away fabulous gifts for Valentine’s Day, and one of them is this gorgeous Alyx skin (in Sultry makeup) from Pink Fuel. Join the [Pink Fuel] Update group in-world and check notices to get the skin package.
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel – Alyx (Peach) Sultry (EyeB/dkbrow)
Truth – Bria (Treacle)
Monso – My School Look – Blazer (Size2/S)
Maubray – Petite Fleur Earrings (Gold)
Truth has released 4 fabulous women's hairstyles @ Hair Fair. You've probably seen many people go gaga over these hairs and totally well-deserved, the styles are adorable. Shown above are 4 of the hairs in "blondes" colors since they're my favorite colors.
I'm Wearing:
Truth – Sophia (Seaspray)
Truth – Romy (Tahiti)
Truth – Esme (Driftwood)
Truth – Twiggy (Platinum)
Be sure to visit Truth @ Hair Fair! (there's a gift for you!)
note* Yes I know the Hair Fair sims are hard to enter right now, but don't give up! The traffic will wear off soon as more people are able to purchase the goodies and leave! 🙂
Update!! The no mod was an SL glitch, and creator tomo Zenovka was nice enough to send replacements prims! YAY <3 I'm happy again!
I'm wearing the WTC lingerie v16 set here, which includes 2 options (bra/panties or with a cami and pants). WTC (by tomoe Zenovka) is a lingerie shop new to me, and I found so many adorable lingerie sets for cheap! For some reason the WTC lingerie ver16 (in green) that I purchased is no mod, so couldn't un-tint my leg prims or resize it to fit (I had to move the prims around my leg to make it fit). I went back to the shop to check, and sure enough another color of the set I bought had mod perms ~ so be sure to double check what you're purchasing! I'm totally bummed I have to ask the creator for modifiable leg prims, which is a hassle that could have been avoided if the perms are mod/no trans to begin with!
If you're purchasing lingerie without prims, the perms are no copy/trans, which is great for gift giving. Despite my annoyance with the perm issue at WTC, I really like this shop so far, and am totally adding it to my list of places to check when I want new lingerie.

Looking for my Studio Windlight Settings? Windlight is now obsolete. I’ve converted this into Studio EEP settings. Get it on Marketplace.
My Facebook page reached 1,000+ likes this week! As a “thank you” gift to all of my loyal readers, I have packaged five of my favorite Studio Windlight settings for you to download.
I haven’t ever shared these Windlight Settings before, even though tons of people have asked! Please enjoy them, and let me know if you like them!
A lot of people don’t know this, but the direction that your avatar faces matters when using a Windlight Setting made by someone else. When I am on a pose stand, my avatar is always facing SOUTH, and the blank prim background is behind me. All of these settings were created with Ultra graphics settings, but they’ll work for lower graphics settings too. If your picture doesn’t look exactly like mine, it’s probably due to having a different graphics card & graphics settings.
Download the JUICYBOMB.COM – Studio Windlight Settings!
To install, locate this folder on your computer and copy all of the Windlight Settings there:
C:UsersYOURNAMEAppDataRoamingSecondLifeuser_settingswindlightskies
Feel free to modify the Windlight Settings for your own personal use.
Update: Thanks to everyone who have downloaded or blogged my Windlight Settings!! I have noticed that some of you guys are using it for in-world scenery photography. When I created these, I didn’t pay attention to the sky color at all, cos it wasn’t visible with the prim background behind me. Some of the skies are dark/brown/black, so if you want to use the settings outdoors, take a moment to adjust your sky! 🙂
Winter wonderland at my friend Wilma’s sim! I am wearing this awesome Misha Oversized Coat from The Secret Store. This coat includes a HUD to change textures on the sweater, the option show/hide the sweater and shirt, so it can easily be paired with other shirts.
Do you dress to match the seasons in SL (which tends to follow the Northern Hemisphere)? If you’re from the Southern Hemisphere, is it Summer now? Does it make it hard to put on Winter clothing when it’s hot outside? Let me know in the comments!
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel Skin
LeLutka – Sage Hair (Marilyn)
The Secret Store – Misha Oversized Coat (Navy)
Teefy – Soft Wool Jersey Leggings (Pearl)
The Secret Store – Oxford Heels (Navy & Chocolate)
Donna Flora – Lella necklace
I ran a poll on X (Twitter), and I can’t believe nearly half of the responses don’t like 2k Bakes on Mesh (BoM) textures! What’s not to like? Everything is more detailed and offers higher resolution. I’m obsessed with 2k BoM for skins, but I’m sure it’ll make decor, clothing, and everything else better too.
I tried on a handful of new 2k skins from various brands, and I think that not all of them are executing the 2k well. Some brands, which were already somewhat average before, had skins that were blurry; and now, in 2k, they are merely high-resolution blurry. You can see the flaws much more clearly, such as uneven skin tones and sloppy shading.
While I love Glam Affair skins, they’re not perfect, but they’re still one of the best skin brands on the grid. For instance, the Siu skin that I”m wearing has uneven nostrils. I could correct this with Izzie’s Nostril Changer, but I find that wearing fewer tattoo layers is a better for 2k skins. You lose detail on the skin when adding numerous tattoos, particularly on skins that are rich in texture. I can’t fix everything without compromising some skin quality, so I am trying to dial it back.
I wish more brands would release skins without baked on lashes and include a “closed eyes” version of the skin or, at the very least, a tattoo layer. One of my favorite features that Glam used to provide was a closed eyes tattoo, but they no longer offer that.
I’m so excited for new 2k body skins!
I am on various social media platforms for Second Life, and I have noticed that residents on Facebook absolutely love AI. They use it constantly to enhance their photos or make videos, and they share the results without hesitation. The same can’t really be said for platforms like Twitter, where a vocal minority is always ready to pounce and tell you that using AI wastes water and that you are a terrible human for even thinking about it.
So anyway, I was casually browsing Facebook when I stumbled across a very amusing trend. Second Life avatars being put in jail for the crime of using AI. The prompt was created and shared by a resident named Danny Fróes (idjdanny). I believe it was originally written in Portuguese, but Facebook translated it to English for me.
Copy this prompt into ChatGPT (or any AI image generation site) with a reference photo:
Using the provided image as a face reference, create a close-up, photorealistic 8K HDR portrait of this woman, portrayed in a classic mugshot. The crime and the mugshot should correspond to the aesthetics and personality you perceive in the picture provided. The woman has voluminous, wild, messy hair. Your makeup complements your personality and aesthetic. The woman is looking straight at the camera in a confident, rebellious, challenging or fun pose. The mugshot should include your name and the crime she committed. Your name is: [Your Name]. Crime Using AI in Second life 01/05/2026 Do not alter your face or your deeds.
You can use Google Gemini, ChatGPT, Grok, and others to get some pretty amusing results. Some services produce more realistic images than others, but I preferred ChatGPT for photos because it did a great job of keeping the final image looking similar to my avatar’s reference photo.
Try the prompt and show me how your photo turned out!
Are you excited about the Truth Collective? This collaboration between Truth, Faga, and Wasabi, is the first of its kind on the grid. Faga and Wasabi joins the Truth brand to release hairstyles using Truth HUDs and textures. This is exciting news for all Truth hair fans to enjoy hairstyles from both of these creators, but still be able to wear their favorite Truth hair color.
