I got on a roll yesterday and started playing around with a casual, craftsy necklace with various textures in my ever-growing inventory (OY! Yikes!). So here’s my next Second Life necklace, that’s just for fun. @LC@ Amethyst and Old Gold Necklace c/m/t (boxed) by Lelani Carver – Second Life XStreet SL Marketplace Amethyst and old gold beads with a matte finish (ie., no glow). This is a medium-length, casual necklace, with “lapidary” semi-precious stones.

Still learning how to make this stuff in Second Life, but starting to get the hang of it. Here’s a green and gold party necklace. I’ll soon start replicating necklaces my RL acquaintances are wearing, because they’re pretty, casual, and fun. @LC@ St Pattys Green and Gold Beaded Necklace (sales box) by Lelani Carver – Second Life XStreet SL Marketplace

Just uploaded a new party necklace at Second Life XStreet SL Marketplace, just a bauble really while I figure out how to make stuffs in #SecondLife. Have fun, and don’t drink the yellow beer, DO drink the GREEN beer. Bright green party bead necklace to wear or give to friends. No shamrock, for those who are allergic!

Second Life Blogs: My House Is Missing – Got Milk Carton? I was in the process of moving things around and backing up my house yesterday (heard about asset server issues) and as I was taking the main building into inventory, it disappeared. It’s completely invisible, does not show up when I toggle Highlight Transparent , yet is not clickable or editable, and the walls and interior partitions are solid. The doors and windows were created by others and so they’re all still there and functional – which is good as I can’t walk through my invizibl wallz. The parcel…

Lelani who? Yes, yes, I’m back. Finally returned from my island home, with armfuls of flowers for lei-making and home decor, and some pictures of wildlife, and rather a lot of delicious smelling hair and skin products which unfortunately don’t translate well to the virtual world that is Second Life (although I may try to create a store for them here). Oh, and I got some fun hair ornaments, which I believe will translate very nicely, and have lots of ideas for jewelry, island-style. I wasn’t able to work much while in the islands, owing to a poor Internet connection…

I heard from several (not all) purchasers of some of my party necklaces that the permissions were not as I had advertised, and that they either wanted a modifiable version or a refund. I’m currently not near my “home” computer, using an older laptop that wheezes a bit when running Second Life, so as soon as I got back to the laptop, I messed with my products to ensure that they were definitely set with the right permissions so people could either modify them, or give them to friends. One Resident never got the corrected version, either – now that…

Not able to go inworld much these days – currently have a very slow Internet connection and don’t have access to home machine and GIMP. However, I’m gathering some textures while my typist is on vacation in Maui, you can be sure! Mostly they will be plant and flower textures, plus whatever else that is interesting catches my eye. Getting lots of ideas for necklaces, pottery, and other wearable art while browsing shops and craft stands, too. There’s beautiful work being done here by local artists – lots of fused glass, painted silk, antique beads, and big batik floral graphics…

… and were horrified to find out what the main, original slang meaning of the term was (it involves dipping one’s “nads” in their partner’s mouth, or slapping them against someone else’s face to prove a point about dominance). Here’s the best (and longest) definition at Urban Dictionary; this link was making the rounds at an event Cafe Wellstone was running tonight to raise funds for charity: Urban Dictionary: teabagger Interestingly, teabaggers uphold an immoral, morbidly obese, twice divorced, draft-dodging, college dropout and known drug addict as their de facto leader, and are even known to advocate burning books.
