Upstairs over the panda, in a small brown “sock monkey fabric” style box.  Buy for ZERO linden :)

It’s a Sock Monkey Song!

One of my very first attempts with Audacity.  I have another sock monkey sound file I made, just of the words “sock monkey” with echo.  It’s not in a gesture yet, I’ll get it in a box later on though.

Tonight I’m releasing my Purple floral wreaths and new purple dresses!

Wreaths come separately for 24 $L
Wreaths as a Trio Color Set (all 3 purple together) for 60 $L
Wreath/Dress matching color combo sets for 55 $L

The prices my change, I’m not very good at pricing what I build. Let me know what you think, if they’re too high.. too low.. just right?

There’s also a new 1 $L dress sitting in the pink cat head shop, as well as set up out at my Heron Shire booth. It’s purple (a different shade than these for sale) and comes with a matching hat.

This 1 $L dress isn’t in my OnRez yet.

I had a few people suggest I put my art on stuff at CafePress.  I don’t know if they were just being nice or if they were for real about it :)  But, it doesn’t cost me anything so I set up a shop!  Cafepress is a RL printing company that puts uploaded images on a variety of items.  Cups, hats, shirts, cards, stickers.. blah blah blah.  I have gotten things made there in previous years, clocks and mugs mostly.  They were nice.

I have the watercolor/ink “Catnip Fields” on a few things.  The round buttons have a slight white space at the top and bottom of the circle (because my artwork is rectangular) but the rest of the items look to fit okay in the item previews.

If there’s other photographs/art in my gallery that you’d like to see on an item, just let me know and I’ll see if I have a high quality version of it to stick on a card or whatever :)  If there’s something else you want me to put Catnip Fields on, just let me know that too!  I don’t know if it will actually look good on everything, but I can always check the previews.

It did not look good on the yellow messenger bag.  Too bad, I wanted one of those hehe!  I’ll have to fix up some special art just that bag sometime.

Well after I took this photo, I changed the wall color/texture :)  I think the new version looks much better!

Four new images uploaded today.  It’s two photos, each one in color and again in black and white.  Taken today of the first rose in my garden for 2008.  I’m so excited.  I go out every day and check them.

I’ve also signed myself up in the Art Gallery Owners group and onto the Art Galleries of Second Life List including the kiosk, which I think the manual said it updates on Sunday’s.  Neat!  Then I guess I’ll be on the list and in the HUD.

I’ll have to stick the stuff in a slide show or a vendor though soon, I am very low on prim space.  I’ve got a few things that can be combined up around my land to reduce some prims, but as I get more photographs I’ll probably start cycling them out.

Now it’s time for class at TUi with Previous :)  We’re making a vintage chair today I think!

HippoVend, 7seas fish trade and sales

It’s a great product, but dude.. it’s hard to set up.  I mean really, I’m struggling.  I’ve been struggling with it for about a week.  Not a solid week of endless work, just.. a bit here and there.

I’m getting it now though!  It’s getting easier.  The manual is good, I’m just not used to vendor setups at all.  It’s a little confusing to remember to drop the stuff in the server and not in my vendor prim uh.. dealie.

Setting up holovending for the products I have made (not for 7seas fishies vendor), and you should go check my shop out btw, is tough.  I can’t seem to get the recliners to rez upright haha.  So I’ll work on that again later this week.  I’d like to reduce my Onrez vendors to one with just everything in it, then set up some HippoVend around in the bear head shop and out at Tiny-Go-Round.. and anywhere else I find to set up shop at :)

I felt like my brain was going round and round.  I click the vendor, I click the server, I click the site.  Round and round I went.  I finally got it though.  I had to bring my second vendor that I’m testing with offline, then reset it.  RESET IT!  Not download, not go online, but R-E-S-E-T!  Reset, seriously, I’m not kidding.  Otherwise it won’t take the new name you make for your vendor.  You don’t want to go round and round in the brain do you?

Seriously, I need a break now hehehe

I’m trying to set up a vendor to throw my 7seas fishies in that I’ve caught.  That way I can set it up and maybe cover some bait costs while cleaning out my inventory too!  I’m always up for trades too!  If I have a fish that you want, even if I already have the one you want to trade.. eh.. it’s okay with me!  Let’s trade!

Except for if it’s a fish that I have only one copy of, I am keeping one copy of my fishies :)

The vendor won’t have pictures of the fish, just a generic texture in place that I made.  If you really want to see a couple of the fish, I’ll show them to you!

I have lots of common fish, rares, ultrarares, but only a few super ultra rares but no lolcats.  My first lolcat will stay as minemineminemine! :)  He will not be for nomnoms.

If I don’t reply to IM’s, just catch me later.  I miss IM tabs a lot, sorry.. it’s not just because I don’t know you, I do it to friends too (sorry guys!)

Eventually I’ll have all my Tinies products I made set up in the hippovend style vendor as well, with holo display.  i think that may help show off what I’ve made much better than a snapshot.  It’s all for sale to cover more bait and fees for classes I take around SL haha

7seas has a site!

I <3 7seas.

I like NeoRealms too, I just wish casting was easier.  But I love 7seas.  I like traveling the world with Mr. Nomnoms swimming around me.

I’m still working on my Oceonography Database, I even hooked up a 7seas barrel up in my skybox so I can build and fish at the same time.  That… sounds kind of pathetic.

You’re all welcome to fish at my land, there’s fishing areas along the whole strip of my plot.  There’s the lake at the one end, with the 7seas vendor and contest board.  Sometimes I randomly start contests, you’ll just win a trophy but hey.. IT IS A TROPHY!  *nodnodnod*.  Then my land is narrow, the two blue bear head buildings are mine as well.  You can fish all through there.  If you can’t, please let me know!  I’ll move the fishing node a bit to cover better.

Yay for bear head buildings!

Today I took a fun class at College of Second Knowledge on making a bookcase with a menu that gives out notecards, or it could do items too.  That was fun.  I have lots of ideas, maybe for a freebie giving bookshelf.  Hmm… Dunno.

Then later there’s a couple more classes I’m thinking about.  There’s one on scripting this evening but I don’t know if I’ll go.  I could have sworn the last time I saw a class taught by that teacher the cost was quite high for the class.  Must be someone else though, it’s hard to keep the classes straight anymore.  I might go, it’s a 2h class.  Debating if I have enough attention span today to handle it.  Don’t laugh!  I’m serious.

I’m working on setting up HippoVend, I finally bought it.  They do holographic display now, and that’s really what I want.  Plus having it easier to manage my vending units will be nice.  I use Onrez but having holo will make it easier for me to sell tiny homes, vehicles, and outfits I think.  I prefer to SEE what I am looking at to consider buying, rather than going off someone’s crappy picture.

Not that you, dear reader, take crappy photos for your vendors.  I’d never say that <3 hehe

Oh so then later there’s a class at TUI that I ALWAYS miss.  Crap and a half man, I am serious.. every time the class runs.. I totally forget to go.  Tonight, I am going to go.  Which is why I think I’ll skip the scripting class because they run back to back in time frame and I gotta be sure I make this TUi GIMP class.

In my shop (check my profile for LM in world) you can see one of my vehicles.  It’s not for sale yet, I’m still debating if I want to put it up.  I don’t know..  I still don’t feel like my builds are good enough to sell, even though I have some up.  That sounds silly I guess.

Let me know what you think, okay?   I don’t think Teddy will let you have a hug though hehe… I can’t remember if that one is set to let others ride or not.  I don’t think he is.  I have to work on that, unless the standard is only the owner?

I have no idea, I make my own vehicles hehe.

This is available in my shop in world now.  There’s an example in my home at the time I blog this, as well as one sitting in the shop.   Same land, btw hehe

Roses and Brass Recliner, for tinies.  It is NOT animated.  It doesn’t move.  I may make a future version with animation, it’s on my list of things I’d like to build.  Yay!
