Thanks to a timely word from a customer, I have discovered a rather annoying perms problem that must be fixed in my canes. I was hoping to set them to be mostly modifiable, and leave the script control and so forth no-mod (mostly so that customers don’t break the way the cane interacts with animations). However, it’s clear that it must be done in a way that allows for customers to modify the items (I don’t care for no-mod products myself), while hoping that the risk of breakage is slight. Fingers crossed, chaps and chapettes! I shall fix the products…

Most advance content creators may dismiss this as “not that useful or interesting,” but yesterday while struggling with a clothing template I went looking for a sort of “drawing app” that might be useful for making things or editing templates for Second Life. Actually, I’d already been playing with an iPad app called “Art Studio” that enabled me to create some quite nice looking fabric textures very easily, just in the course of doodling around and playing with some of the settings and filters. I’d bought a simple stylus (not one of the fancy artist’s pressure sensitive ones) and have…

O HAI! Bug is here! I maded a dress today. Akshully, I made the skirt a while ago, but decided to start building a whole dress, AND I managed to make my own fabric for it. This is what it looks like so far. I made gingham (on a pixelated LOOM and everything) and added a border with dandy lions on it. It’s very summery because winter is BORING and grey. I have to learn how to do sleeves, these ones don’t move right. They’d be okay for shoulder straps or cap sleeves, though. I safety-pinned everything and went to…

New walking stick or cane listed at the Marketplace: This simple, dignified cane will take you easily from the sketchy dark corners of New Babbage to society soirees in Steelhead, Caledon, or Winterfell. It will prop you up when tired, and give you something to do with your hands. Sit with care – some sits are cane-friendly, others are not. Highly recommended: works well with the excellent "Gentleman Jim Full" or "Gentle Jim Light" Victorian AOs, available from Kamilah Hauptmann’s Posture is Everything on the Marketplace. The cane is fully optimized to take advantage of Her Lyonesse’s amusing typing and…

After some dithering around today, I think I’ve got things set so that any Tweeter-twit things are posted on a weekly basis and NOT creating a new blog post for every tweet. It’s annoying, but due to changes in Twitter’s API and the original plugin, the plugin I used to use that sent my post links to Twitter AND created a weekly digest now only has as options for post-links, tweets as blogposts, and daily digests. So I had to install a second plugin that will handle the weekly posting duties, and farfle around with the settings on the original…

I will probably never need this, but someone might find it useful
