and especially amazing photo effects on the outside walls !
(other than that: wood texture & lightling+shadows = AWESOME !)

♥ playing with SHADOW VIEWER

i've installed the SHADOW VIEWER to see how it works for fun !




in regard to shadows, it worked out pretty fine... but somehow my skin didn't show well...
as you can see from the pics, i got so thick lips... hahaha
( NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT )




but amazing thing was that this viewer could even reflect the shadows of your hat, hair, even fingers over your skin!!

this is where you can get the info about SHADOW VIEWER

costume: KWZ Lilly-K Cherry
pose: "L&A"

Designing Nicky Ree Main Store, Tropical Orchid (230, 128, 30)

♥ another Clione...

who's she???
she's another Clione... in another metaverse called Legend City Online.





i became a resident in November 2008 and used to have an open space sim in there, as i wanted to try and learn about terraforming and play with prims.

hadn't been there since i abandoned the sim, but i logged in today to explore the City.


i luv their Grid Status says "Doing OK :)"
ahaha... sounds cute...

you can feel how SL grid is stable now comparing with Legend City,
but i bet those SL pioneers would get some kind of nostalgic feeling if they get to visit there....

♥ Relay For Life event at Lauren's Place

went to a Relay For Life event at Lauren's Place yesterday.
Relay For Life (often shortened to Relay) is a fundraising event of the American Cancer Society.

Relay For Life® in Second Life®

Support the Virtual Relay at
events.cancer.org/SecondLife


Lauren Weyland is my favorite stand-up comedianne in SL and my dearest friend.

60 ppl gathered in one sim and naturally kinda laggy it was... but
i certainly did enjoy myself being there !
(although i crashed at the last min.)

there were some great performers other than Lauren.

EvaMoon Embers
Daine Blaisdale
JWheels Carver
Constantine
and many more names

have you been to one of those great shows performed by SL artists yet ?
then, give yourself chances!

you can even use your voice and laugh, chat and participate at most of Lauren's shows.
isn't that nice ? <3

♥ Gee...how did i get so many ?!?!

i was trying to sort my inventory and realized that i've got various hair styles.... some are freebies, some are not....
here.. let me introduce some of them... yes.. just "some" of them....
but that shows the history of my SL life, doesn't it....
the "some" of "some of them" are scriped as to play animation when you try to undo or redo your hair...AMAZING isn't it??

"The Fish" which appears on the screen at times is created by Mia Linden as a gift for CT Project members... Thanks Mia !
(the cute fish swims around your avi ^^ )

♥ Adult, Mature..... and PG ???

http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-12977

i've found this jira argument pretty interesting.
yes, now Linden Lab is going to filter Adult contents, as everybody knows about it already.

BUT....what they are arguing there is the necessities of filtering "PG" contents !!

wow! how interesting!

"if we can filter out Adult and Mature we should be able to filter out PG as well."

and there you can read many reasons why it's necessary to do so.....

♥ M and Philip Linden

in my previous post, i mentioned about M Linden and Philip Linden... but are you curious enough to know how they look in-world ??? Or maybe you already know how they look, as they are "the celebrities" :)

okies, here are the pics taken at the party... well, as you can see, Philip's avi is far different from him in rl, but M's avi is.. hmmm... a little alike, don't you think ?

♥ I'm in the mood for ....

i go "in-world" whenever i'm in the mood for being Clione...

all of a sudden, just felt like scribbling my life in SL somehow... so here i am.....

basically i am not a blogger... so i don't know how long this feeling would last.. but anyways, i just thought of giving it a try :)

i am a bilingual japanese, and one of Linden official SL mentors.
As a mentor, i used to hang around Help Islands to help newly arrived ppl, especially those who are in need of language support in japanese.

but nowadays, i've been contributing my time for the CT Project (Community Translation Project, run by LL and volunteer linguists), and translating some of SL Knowledge Base articles into japanese.

on the 24th SLT, there was a fabulous party held by LL for those who participated as volunteer translators, there we could meet M Linden and Philip Linden and many others who have "Linden" as their sir names.

they'd prepared apples with all of our names.. but we had to APPLE HUNT to find "yours exclusively"!
hmmm i had to spend so much time to find mine.. but with a kind help of another japanese volunteer, i could find mine at last.
