New things soon!

I did a little ’spring cleaning’ so to speak, and removed all irrelevant posts from this blog by other authors that were just taking up space.  I didn’t want to advertise other brands here, especially since they don’t exist.  So now its nice and shiny again!

I’m going to start making new things again.  Ely is doing a GREAT job on her clothes, and it’s inspired me to start working again.

I’ll probably figure something out in regards to a store, but we’ll see.  I still have the store I built in my inventory, but that was too big.  Gonna downsize.  Won’t need a whole sim, as I only used half of the old place anyways.

Stay tuned….anyone hear me anymore?  Leave a comment!

A Public Service Announcement, and Cheap Stuff

Recently, I’ve been wandering around the grid to many stores, and simply amazed at the prices of some of the items I’ve come across.  I mean, I know how hard it is to make something and then to try to put a price to your work, but nowadays, things have just become insane, especially in the accessory market.

I went to one well known jewelry store, and saw a ring with no options priced at $799.  $799!!  Seriously!  I’d not be able to sleep at night if I offered a simple ring at that price.

So, I decided to release a ring that can do all sorts of things to match your outfits, at a very low cost of $125.  This ring was for an ex-partner who fooled around with at least 5 guys in SL during our over two year partnership.  So the ring means absolutely nothing at all to me.  Why not make something so worthless enjoyable to you all?

It can only be purchased at XStreet, as I no longer have a store in world, but this might be worth it to dump a few lindens in XStreet and buy for yourself. 

This one ring can change to 4 different metals (pictured below) as well as 18 different gemstones.  Pictured in the rings is the Purple Topaz gemstone.  All this without taking up precious HUD real estate.

Please read the notecard in the box that the ring comes in for directions in changing the gemstones and metals.

I give you the *EMJ* Ridiculousness Diamond Ring.  XStreet: https://www.xstreetsl.com/modules.php?name=Marketplace&file=item&ItemID=1446334

Bangles? I make bangles?

I have been told over and over again to make bangles.

Bangles.

I never thought to make them to be honest, but knew I should.  Bangles are casual.  I haven’t done casual real well.  hehe

Soo..I started to play around, and came up with these!

As you can see, they are both left and right sets, the left side of the image shows the metal colors that are available.  Bronze, Platinum, Gunmetal, and Gold.  Also, you can choose 17 different gemstones to show as well, Not just colors, but the textures change, so it’s more realistic.  All in all, you have 68 different options with *just one* type of bangle.  As pictured, there are 4 types of bangle arrangements!  That’s A LOT of options for you to wear!

No need to try to touch the metal or gem to change…a simple hidden command will do it for you!

I have put these for sale at my store for $275

New me!

I’ve been the same me for the last oh….year and a half about, and I had been contemplating a new look.

Well, as the cheapest man in SL (just in case you’ve not talked to Foxy about me), I didn’t want to plunk down eleventy billion lindens on me.  I’m content.  To a fault.  I needed a new me, though.  I was in a rut.  Too much past and a good friend told me I need to reinvent myself.  Gotta start with me, and the rest will come eventually.

Well, I was actually reading blogs for the first time in well, eons, and saw someone blog about skins.  Male skins!  I contacted the blogger in game, sent her some bling for her trouble, and got more information on the skins. 

Foxy Innis, owner of Foxy Shapes (sorry..namedropping) IMed me asking me what I was doing.  When I told her I was shopping for skins, she flipped out….knowing how much I love spending Lindens. (see: Sarcasm)

I TPed her in, and well, we were looking at these skins…I IM the maker, Tommy Fairplay of Dragonfly Designs, and got more info….these skins….there are so many to choose from, I couldn’t tell the difference on half of them.  At that same moment, my blogger friend IMs me, and asks me if I went by the store.  Since she had all the skins, she modeled them for me….on a male avie, of course.

Foxy loved them, I loved them, and just didn’t know what to buy.  Foxy said I should look around for other skins for comparison, but I hate shopping more than I hate spending money.  I bought 4 skins.  hehe

All is great!  Signs pointed me to this skin, it looks great, and I gained a new friend out of it.  Score!

So guys, hop over to Dragonfly Designs and get your skin on.  And after you do that, go buy some jewelry for your chick(s).

Back to work.

Hey…I figured i would actually do something today in regard to jewelry.  Baby steps, but I just released an updated Heart Tag set that includes all of my metal options, Platinum, Gold, Gunmetal, AND BRONZE!

You can now have all 4 metals in each item, changeable by command!

Smellovision™

Someone sent me a notecard a few weeks ago about wanting to add something to my jewelry.  Figuring it was another lame brained scam, I read the notecard.

This person said he/she invented Perfume for SL.  Now, I could be wrong…but last I checked, you couldn’t smell through SL.  This person wanted to throw a script or something into my items to give the wearer the added effect of wearing perfume.  I passed the notecard to my friends, who all thought the idea was hysterical, many saying, “Is this a joke?” only to be told…no, unfortunately, it’s real.

Well, I got an IM from the notecard sender yesterday, asking if I had the chance to review his/her creation.  I told him/her no, and in not so uncertain terms that it was the most ridiculous idea evar.  I didn’t want to have my items annoy people with spam, and become the new xcite style jewelry…an idea that is about 2 years past it’s prime.  (talking bits, that is)

This person then said, well, when you make love in SL, you don’t actually do it, but you experience it with your senses…just like you would with my perfume.

mmkay.

Needless to say he/she thanked me for my time, and I waved.  Polite, I have to admit, but too excited about something that is just a bit …out there.

Bored. I mean *really* bored.

Man…I can’t shake off this utter love/hate relationship I have with SL.  It’s more on the latter recently.  Bored with it, bored with trying to make people happy at my own expense, and most of all, tired of waiting.  Waiting for what, I really don’t know.  heh.

I took a few days off from SL, and it was great.  I may start doing that more frequently.  Since Ame left the game, I’ve not been motivated to do anything, and I haven’t.  Lots of ideas, and even some action  on them, but nothing truly released.

I’ll log in, and literally do nothing.  Stand in my sim.  Float in the sky.  Watch the Tiny Empires scroll.  Whee!
