Pink Positive!

From the one store I managed to get to at the Pink Ribbon Fair before I gave up. I'll get back to it, but I'm going to give it a few days.

Don't Look Too Closely...

Learning photo editing is both fun and tedious! Much like learning in all walks of life, I suppose.

I tried to hit the Pink Ribbon Fair today. I only made it to one store before the lag got to me. Something that really frustrates me about fairs is that it seems like most everyone I see comes in fully dressed, with their prims and AO's all attached. And right at the landing point is a giant sign asking people to remove their stuff. I'm walking about bald and in a bikini and the chick next to me is in more prims than a store has. It's really irritating, and it contributes to the lag so much. And it's not like lag is entirely avoidable, but we CAN help it. Come on, people. Just bite the bullet and take one for the team!

Anyway! I took a crack at some intermediate editing today, with so/so results. Just need to keep at it.

Smart Chicks are Hot!

I actually wore this yesterday... Oops. Vintage Fair starts tomorrow! So I figure a week from now, maybe the lag will be bearable. I can't wait!

Lazy Summer Days

Mesh has made me lazy. I realized it today, when trying to get dressed. I wanted to layer, and I wanted to wear mesh, so I had to combine the two. Which isn't unusual at all, but I've been just slapping on mesh and calling it good recently, so this was kind of a challenge for me.

It took me way longer than it should have to get dressed. And I cheated and the only mesh I wore was a sweater. Baby steps.

Go Team SL... Hmph.

Ohhhh SL is so remarkably frustrating sometimes. I spent half an hour this morning attempting to get a pose to work, but SL would NOT animate my hands. I don't understand why. I tried three different viewers, and nothing worked. I finally had to give up or I was going to lose my mind.

I really think it's kind of ridiculous that we're a decade into this, and they still can't fix the LITTLE stuff. Advances in technology, like mesh, are totally awesome, but you know... You also need to spend some time ironing out basic bugs. And the fact that they just recently have fixed the spread fingers thing? I mean, I'm thrilled that it's been fixed, but I think that having to put up with it for years first is a little ridiculous.

Anyway. I actually attempted to do this picture yesterday, and I had a whole Olympics rings thing going on. But I had perspective problems and resizing... And it was all just not working. So then today I tried to use a peace pose... See above for the results. So in the end, it's me and my jeans, and you know. Just pretend that I'm projecting feelings of world peace and stuff, instead of quiet simmering rage at SL.

Tiiiiiired

I'm really loving the stuff I got from Not So Bad. I'm probably totally late to the party, but you know... At least I'm fashionably late. (God, I love a bad pun.)

The Olympics started tonight! I LOVE the Olympics. So I'm kicking them off with, well, a completely unrelated outfit. It's the thought that counts, right?

Flyby!

I spent most of my time in SL today with it minimized while I messed around in Gimp. And I came out of it with virtually no more skills than I already had. This photo editing business is difficult stuff. And I just really don't like Gimp very much. I found Photoshop to be so much easier, back when I used it.

I know white backgrounds are kind of boring... But I can't help but love the cleanness of it. So pretty.
