Thanks to Mar’s SL For Nowt post, I was motivated to sort a lot of textures scattered through many folders – some were class downloads, some were unnecessary product ads from hunt gifts and purchases, a lot were unsorted textures from packs, some were retrieved from my indespensable ETO texture organizer and never sorted into project folders or storage. All well and good, except that at the end of the night, I accidentally retextured the organizer itself with a standard texture grid – ALL the buttons, forward/back buttons, categories, the lot. NOOOOOOOOOOO! I was up until 2am fixing it. But…

Congratulations to the Consulate of Europa Wulfenbach for putting together an extremely fun hunt, and for making “The Big Time” on the Second Life Destinations page. An entire sim, Inverbrackie, is devoted to wild, wacky, and wonderful builds, and members of the Consulate group and their friends have contributed everything needed to put together a Jägermonster avatar (read Girl Genius! Right now!). My young ward, Bugginia, will probably be embracing her inner Jägerkin, as she had a LOT of fun tromping around in the snow dodging snowballs (courtesy of wizardess Ordinal Malaprop) and inspecting the carnage typical of a lava-based…

Thanks to a pointer from @LindaKellie, I explored the downloads, scripts and recommended tools for Second Life at Ferd Frederix’ incredible site Phaze Desmesne. This Flickr viewer thing is so very shiny. I had already spent days looking at the scripts, then realized thanks to a link from Linda Kellie’s free sculpts page that there were awesome sculpts and links to free tools at Ferd’s site. I can’t wait to play with this later, but I’m on an iPhone and this requires Flash. Thanks, Ferd! It’s people like you and Linda Kellie who keep inspiring content creators (just look at…

I enjoyed the Snowflake Ball vicariously… I puttered around clearing inventory but listened to @radioriel as they did a live stream. # Star Warz Cat-Cat attak ur base! #LOLCatCat #pewpewpew http://t.co/LZTjtmVi # @m_ethaniel Augh!

Dhughan here, recommending Music For Builders. Whilst messing about with floating lanterns that fell 500 metres and buried themselves in abandoned mines in Steelhead St Helens, I listened to an excellent programme, hosted live by Carter Denja. Radio Riel is essential to maintaining one’s cool while excavating down to the Second Life water table to find physical objects set to float… wait for it! on the surface. My other floating lantern, which Miss Bug made in a class project, floats so enthusiastically that it would go into space if not constrained by a ceiling. Clearly, more study (my take, break,…

Yes, yes, Dhughan here, very slack of me to disappear like that. I happened to be very busy avoiding as much work as possible during the holidays. Back again in good old Steelhead Shanghai, and there certainly are interesting things happpening this week. —- Chinese New Year 2012: Year of the Dragon – Breathing Fire into the New Year Chinese New Year is the longest and most important celebration in the Chinese calendar.

Ooh! Fun events to entertain and distract the discerning Steampunk resident: R.S.V.P. to Mr TotalLunar Eclipse; be there or he’ll eat you and stomp on your house, in that order. That may seem unnecessarily harsh, to destroy your home after you’re dead, but dragons are notoriously hot-tempered and really hold a grudge. Better mark your cslendars, I’m just sayin’. Also, too: SQUIRRELL!!1! Link: Eclipse: Chinese New Years in Steelhead 2012

Many funs had last night, dancing at Lacamas Reading Room/Cafe Wellstone in #SecondLife I made some dumb Occupy signs to wear. # Trying #Firestorm again (sorry so late) RT @InaraPey "Blog post: "Firestorm 3.2 Release: In-depth" – http://t.co/dVmluLXh #SL #SecondLife" # Had weird problems with V3 last night, then muted myself in Imprudence (older version).
