My dear friend Aemeth is closing her SL store, so visit and get some amazing goodies for $10L while you still can! I am sad about it, but she’ll be around (thank god), just her store is closing down to focus on RL things. I WILL MISS YOUR CUTE STORE!!!!! <3
I like the challenge of making a Kid Shape. I’ve been working on on a Kid version of Gogo on and off for years, never being quite happy with the proportions. Ideally, I would like to make a kid that looks young enough to wear a pacifier. I don’t know why, I just think it’s a cute accessory that’s necessary so people will know it’s meant to be a Kid and not a very short adult!
For now, I’ll have to settle on a Kid that is much older, until the SL mesh improves or skin makers comes out with better Kid skins. I won’t put my kid in anything but Gala skins from 2008 (before the shine), cos to me that’s the best young face that is realistic and not cartoon-y.
I don’t care if people think Kid avatars are creepy or annoying. If they tried, they would realize that making a nice Kid shape is incredibly hard!
I would make a senior citizen Gogo if skin makers made *nice* aged skins, too!
P.S. I don’t want my favorite skin makers to make more kid skins (I would rather them concentrate on regular skins), but it’s cool to be able to make different shapes using the right products.
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! 🙂
My head is so tiny and adorable in this new Amanda hairstyle from LaViere! It’s such a shock cos I’m usually wearing long hair, but I loooooove it. LaViere hair is usually too small for me, but it does come with a resize script, so I was able to just click 5%+ a few times to enlarge it.
Does your avatar usually wear long or short hair?
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel – Harley (Peach)
LaViere – Amanda (FrostedPink)
Teefy – Bella Ruffles Camisole (Short)

I’ve known Mina Jun for a long time and I know the skins and everything from her shop are original works of art. It makes me sick that characters like Sara Lee and her dozens of alts are allowed to access Second Life and continue to harass legit content creators and steal from them.
Right now Sara Lee may be stealing from Mina directly, but the truth is, she is stealing from all of us. As a shopper, a biz owner, a blogger, a friend.. I’m completely fed up with people who continually abuse and take advantage of others.

Ok guys, you’ll probably be getting lots of Hair Fair posts from me this week. I’ve made my hair fair rounds on all four sims and let me say…. be prepared to spend lots of time there!! Or you can join the Hair Fair Demo Group to get free demos, and ask a friend who has a list of all the landmarks in-world to pass you one 🙂
Exile has a good mix of men and women’s style this year so be sure to check it out. This Venus style is an instant favorite for me, so I have to feature it first! The hair flowers are scripted to color change, and it’s just so damn sexy.
