So.. what's new?

Ok so far I really haven't really told you much of anything interesting, so I figure, why break the habit now?
Truth be told, I have been suffering from the blogger's eqivalent of writer's block, and without any real knowledge of how to layer pics in photoshop or paintshop, my magazine idea has fallen to the wayside. Plus there is also the issue of writing articles and whatnot. Some of this comes with ease to some people, and others, like me for exam, just suck at creating. It seems my role in SL is to tell others "hey, you know what would be cool?" and let them go about putting it into production. And that's fine with me. Except I dont get rich off that :)
So - for those of you that do currently have an active imagination, drop me a line telling me what you want to see inSL that you so far have't found. If I find it for you - that's great. But if I dont - I'll see if I can find someone to make it.
And if you have any ideas for a magazine style photoshoot - let me have those too. And if you are online when we shoot it - you get invited along too.

Anniversary

I hadn't even realised until it was pointed out to me yesterday that I have now been blogging for a whole year. I have to say, the time has flown. And what have I learned in that year?
I have learned that no matter how inconceivable the idea is for an object in SL, you can bet someone else has already made it. And if not - if you are patient, and ask around, someone will most likely make it for you, if you are not feeling upto making it yourself. I have also learned that no matter how much you try - there does come a time when the multitude of shops, stores and malls in SL cease to seem to have anything new or inspiring to sell to you. And that just when you give up all hope, someone makes a suggestion, or you see something that sparks that "Oh god yes! I just have to get me one of them!" kind of reactions. The biggst issue is then if you can get it at an affordable price.
And that no matter how obscure a fetish, kink, quirk or whatever - if you search hard enough, there is a home for it in SL. Or maybe several homes.
But the most impotant thing is - Second Life is full of some of the most wonderful people. Sure - some are total assholes, but you walk down any street in real life and tell me there isn't at least one asshole there too. And at least, in SL, anyone that has been here more than a month looks great!

Ok I have decided it's about time to post a ic usinga different skin, just because I have it, and, for the sake of diversity, which is what makes SL so good in my opinion.

Nothing much else to post, so, this could be all for a month or so, unless I get inspired.

So if you want to see a particular theme set of photos, or, you think you can help me put the pics into a magazine without getting censored by Photobucket (Grrrr) let me know.

Lazy Days

Yes I know it has been a while since I last posted to this blog. Sorry for thosetoo bored to looks elsewhere for entertainment :).
I just haven't felt there was anything worth writing about. Till now. And I doubt you will be quite as excited about this as I am.
Now, some of you may know that I quite enjoy the ponyplay scene here in SL. And that I quite enjoy being the pony too.
Ok so far?
Good.
Since I took possesion of the Morbid Play Evo Bridle, I hae been wanting to do a little blind pony carting. Yes, I am that messed up. Anyway, to help the cart driver facilitate just where the pony is togo, most trainers use whip commands. Cracking the whip in the air a set number of times to tell the pony which way to go. This is all very well and good if the pony can see, they can esily tell how much of aturn is needed at the next bend. But a blind pony does not have that luxury. And so I set out to acquire a HUd to convey a little more contol over the steering. And lo! Success!

With a lot of help (ok so my idea, and someone ese's work - but we oerate as a team) we now have a new steering HUD. with 3 levels of turn.
3 whip cracks means a course adjstment to the left. 3 cracks and a light tug of the reins means a more sharp turn to the left. And 3 cras with a firm tug on the reins means a hard left turn. And the same to the right - only with 4 whip cracks. You get the idea?
It does require a lot of practise from the pony - I should know - I spent quite a few runs around with a cart trying it. And some patience from the trainer or owner.
But, after negotiating a tricky course totaly blinded, albeit not in any record time,I m happy to say that it works.

And is available to buy for a meagre L$50 in the tack shop of FFF in SL. I am hoping this is the first poduct of many that will at least offer some originality to SL, and at a price to make it available to the masses, rather than a select few.
