Pure Fantasy

An old friend dropped by to see me, he wanted to see TRYST and when he saw it, entered into the spirit of the sim by changing into a Faun, I could not resist taking a shot of him, I love visitors who enter into the spirit of things, Dragons fairys merfolk are all such lovley beings,

Thanks GG for allowing me to take this shot, and welcome to TRYST

Much Love

for the sheer joy of it

I love to create art, with fabulous variety of builds within different sims its criminal not to.

Such places of beauty, mostly open to all, and being a bit of a dreamer I find it impossible not to try to create a CGI that is worthy of the place.

This was taken at the beautiful Alirium Sim, if you get time it really is a wonderful place,

Much Love

I really have had it,

There is a cancer awareness event going on atm, in SL, and I had a few prims to spare, so set up an area for those who had no use of a studio, to either take a photo or I would have happily done it for them, sadly someone sent me a very visible message, rezzed all items and set the fire effect to max so it looked like it was burning down..

It was not only hurtful but also very petty and downright evil in the circumstances.

I am aware of my non popularity in some circles, I guess as one friend put it, they cant label or box me so they feel threatened.

Thankfully I dont suffer such paranoia, I admire peoples creativity, Jealousy is such a negative emotion, as for EGO I truly do find that kind of distasteful, we are all gifted in many ways, its just finding out what that gift is and developing it.

I would love to see those peeps who really do feel theyre superior a few weeks after the sewage worker had gone on strike LOL , yep I have a very evil sense of humor.

SL for me is just another creative outlet, and I so do love to see the fabulous creations within it.

I guess I thought modelling would allow me to explore more of the detailed work, and it does to a point, but not being much of a party person, preferring to build or take photos, I dont mix much.

I would always try to support a great cause though, which is why the event on my sim saddened me so much, ahh such is the viciousness of some individuals within the modelling circuit.

I would say the worst thing I have learned in SL since joining this group, is mistrust, and thats very very sad.

With that said, I have met a few and again with sadness I list them on one hand, nice people, so maybe its time to leave the model scene and just explore the fabulous world that is SL.

Have a beautiful week

Much Love

TRYST

Finally I have kind of finished TRYST, my virtual world in a virtual world.

I guess for anyone who isnt involved in this type of activity, its a difficult thing to understand, and I admot some of my friends think I am barmy, well, I say dont judge anything til you try it.

Also for many sick and ill People Virtual worlds give a platform that allows them some kind of ability to do what they used to do in Reality and may be unable to do at present.

Its not prim perfect, but will get there as I find more building skills, and if any builders visit I am happy to talk constructive critiscism.

These are just a couple of shots of TRYST, I hope people who may visit, enjoy its intention as a place to be at peace with all life.

Much Love

HELP to SAVE LIVES join in

http://pbipcampaign.wordpress.com/participate/

According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), a woman in the United States is diagnosed with breast cancer every three minutes, and every year approximately 50,000 die from this disease.

We are back!

PRETTY BALD IN PINK Photo Campaign is a charity project aimed to promote knowledge and support for cancer victims, families and everyone affected by this disease. Like last year, the idea is not to raise money, but to raise conscience and awareness about a subject that concern us all, to some more direct than to others.

Images will be posted on the PBIP blog, flickr and other media.

THANKYOU

Much Love

not Happy

Being a bit of a free Spirit, I am having possibly oneof my worst ever times in SL, Thinking it may be my hub connector for the internet, I buy a new one, all singing all dancing, supposedly the best, now either my computer has changed into a monster, or the new hud isnt singing its got frekin tonsillitis, cos its sure as hell is slower even than my last which sadly has started ot want to be reset every couple of hours, I am so far through building TRYST and today I log in 6 times to be booted out, Logged out I should say, logged back in in a safe hub several times only to be chased round by some nutter with his attachment dangling and a title of I love wet willies above his head,…. I am NOT joking, jeeeeez, I get logged out maybe a merciful logout on that one, then attempt to get back to home, I log in again to yet again be redirected to a safe hub, this time a lycan/vampire wants to take a chunk out of me, this is getting so ridiculous, I have spent over an hour just trying to log into SL and its not gonna happen, few more days like this, and I am seriously gonna check out inworldz, and ask for flaming refund on the two full accounts I damn well forked out for, not to mention a refund on this damn wireless connector,

ohhhhhhh sometimes I do so long for the simple days,

I hope your day is a muc better one than mine,

Have a good one

Much Love

Blondes Have more FUN

I am kind of in Love with this New Hair from EMOtions, its just meeee lol. I also have this thing for clothes from RICIELLI, mainly cos theyre stylish, not absurdly priced and easy to wear.

This is an unedited photo, I kinda like the challenge of doing on edits, mainly to see if I can geta half decent shot, but I find it depends on the quality of the clothes and skin you wear, not to mention the Hair, Its been a mad couple of days for me, I offered to help a model to style cos she asked me, after spending a couple of hours with her, I offered to take a couple of pics of the finished thing, so I opened my sim to allow her in, and within a few minutes there was some nut job guy floating round, who I may add I did not know, so I asked him to leave, and got in a minute in response, so in a minute I asked again, no response, soooooo i did what any normal girl would do when faced with a nut job I booted him rom the sim.

Returning my attention to the said model, who was so busy chatting him up could not be bothered to respond to my request to please get on the pose stand, after several attempts of getting this girl to do ths simple act and still getting no response, I booted her too.

Sometimes its just not worth the time and trouble, plus I hate bad manners, arrogance and sheer ignorance, ok rant over, back to normal service resumed lol.

Have a greatttt Day

Much Love

A world within a world within a world

I am embarking on a New Build, its keeping me busy and pretty quiet at the moment, most of my spare time is devoted to this project.

Its a big build, but I am sadly restricted on prims, with only 3,750 on a homestead its finding a compromise for detail, and trying to figure a ways to do it with the minimum prim.

The trouble is I love tiny details, such as birds in trees, and leaves in water, and its so driving me bonkers, trying to work them or an illusion of them into the build.

I will in the end be rezzing on a 1 prim platform in the sky to dress and style LOL, but as I spend my SL time alone, its not really a problem. and that means I get extra trees and birds into the build.

I was hoping to have this finished by the end of this month, but sadly it seems that it will take longer.

Once finished I am hoping to have a party and open the sim to all for a few months, before I pull it all down and start all over again.

So this is TRYST so far.

Have a super day,

Much Love

so I need to upgrade

Ok welllll when I log into the blog it asks would I like to upgrade to pro, and seeing other blogs, they are obviously pro. but often its not the fact that theyre a flashy design website, its what is in them that is the key.

Upgrading my avatar here with an emote hud, was soooo not good, I think we have all seen photos and avis, with that really freaky insane grin forced onto their face by the said hud.

I see a lot of photos on Flicr of avatars with such like, ok it may be my personal dislike, but seriously, who grins like a chesire cat every 15 seconds. and its not even a pretty chesire cat. yikes.

I was laughing so hard when I grabbed this shot, because of that look on my face. there are moments in Second Life, such as only half your head rezzing or just clothes and no avi, these are what I call priceless SL moments, and sometimes if we are fast we can catch them in a photo, theyre a never ending source of amusement to me.

Ok yeahh small things amuse small minds, I hear you thinking.

Well my amusement is fine by me, the only person I would ever wish to take the piss out of is myself, and it hurts no one.

Now I need to go look at this upgrade lark,

Have a beautiful day,

Much Love
