Since SL grid is down today, I'm going to fire up Photoshop and breaking out the avatar templates and starting to work on a set of janelle and Will inspired skins and shapes. and black flowered shorts, of course.

So much to learn, so little time. LOL.

Has anyone started working on that? I wouldn't want to repeat unnecessary work.

Don't tell Will Kirby (tm) he'll ask for a percentage.

Rosecg, I found some shorts that look alot like Will's--they were in a "pack" of various colored shorts of the same design, if I remember correctly. I have the item info saved to my account but am unable to access it right now. Once I can get back in I can post the details here, or IM you. My name in SL is Christine Daffodil.

Noved,

essentially substitue SL whenever you read the word "grid" and you'll get the gist.

I'm not tekkie enough to give you a thorough definition, but it's like the system of sharing across many computers networked together to access stuff, share capacity, speed, processability, all that other junk that is important for many people to get into and utilize SL! lol and it's down. may be back up by now heh

OR it could mean the actual grid of the world (horizontal and perpendicular lines to reference location, etc).

All I know is it is down while they make the upgrades. And that means that it won't work correctly, and they'll have to do another upgrade in a couple of days. Maybe a week. lol

Thanks snackie...

It KILLS me that I can't have a SL at work. I wonder if it would look suspicious if I brought my own laptop in to replace my office PC?

Key words Second Life Tutorial brings up some cuties.

Good lordy, I keep getting stuck in youtube, one way or the other.

Thanks for the shorts, Aqua. LOL.

Noved, now that I've seen you in Second Life, I see you as that avatar, even on here. I can only wonder what you imagine when you think of me. LOL.


If you want to understand Metaverse and the Grid, read Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson

I "hear" Clio differently now too. LOL.

Deliciously over the top.


Oh man, I'm such an UBER Geek.

I don't think of you in SL terms Rose..I think of wild and crazy and fun Rose! You always make me laugh SO much...besides that, your SL look (and sex!) changes so much it's impossible to associate the avatars with you.

But I get what you mean because I do think of Sidda and Snackie and the ones I haven't talked to a lot in chat as their SL avatar...or someone's avatar, because I get them all mixed up! I've got Snackie down because she's a non-blonde like me lol but the rest I'm still learning.

The way I picture you is tan and blonde, (because you live in Florida) short, big smile, short hair. Isn't it funny how we "see" people on the internet?

Hi Snackie:-)
I can't get it to download either so don't worry :-)

I'm thinking this may be a good time to get a much needed nap in.

Dimity? If you happen to read here...I was wondering if you found out about the SL streaming server service? Or any other way we can play those the BBUK shows of yours? Any information you get please let me know...we would like to set something up at the lofts to play of all them.

With the new pool and party area shaping up so nice maybe we can show them on a big screen there outside a night or two a week. And we also need to make sure we can get the live-feeds when the new BB8 US starts:-)

On another note...Our SL neighbor, MambaBamba, is opening up a club at his place on ISLA. He is going to have a special TVCHsl night, once a week too. (I think he realizes that all his business is going to come from or because of us TVCHers:-)) But his construction is looking pretty nice and it's sure to be superfun!

Belle ... for the live feeds, I think we will need four different pieces of land, because each can only have one media stream at a time, right? No wait - 5 if anyone wants to watch the quad.

Some fun events coming up, all in the evening.

this Saturday - the opening of the Arizona club, which I think is going to be live music, including country (lol)

Monday Feb 5 - a fashion show in SL to coincide with Fashion Week in New York. maybe a good chance for would be personal shoppers to make some contacts? this is being run by the "Girls' Night Out" group and should be really good.

Thursday Feb 8 (I think) - the opening of Ginnie Talamasca's new store (formerly of Dazzle *sob*)

Friday Feb 9 - bachelor auction for charity

And now I must face the dreaded update so I can see the new pool!

Rosecg, I found some shorts that look alot like Will's

COOL! I think making Will shorts would be very doable! I can get someone an almost identical image if that helps. Is it just a matter of finding some mod-able shorts and applying the right texture to them? I could do that!

I say this in all seriousness.... I think we are "sitting on a gold mine" as my ex used to say. I think we need to run an add in the classifieds for a "Rent-a-Gang" club owners and event planners can rent us out for their events and parties. We're a guaranteed crowd and we attract more people! We could charge by the hour and then split the money.

Does that sound realistic to anyone but me?

I'll look into how much an ad costs....

Also, anyone needing to test drive video watching at my place should contact me tonight or tomorrow ... if you can't get it working when the show starts, unfortunately, we won't be able to stop and fix your problem.

As was mentioned before, make sure you have the lastest version of Quick Time installed. That seems to solve most everyone's problems.
