Regarding graphics settings:

Try lowering your Draw Distance WAY down. Like to 64 for starters, just to see what happens. For me, this is the single biggest lag creator on my computer. Turn details on ground, tree, and sky to the lowest, while keeping avatars, objects, and flexi objects high. This sort of tweaking helps my computer run more efficiently, while I can still see the stuff that I really care about. I only raise my Draw Distance if I am going to be exploring around, and in that case I might raise the other sliders as well and just deal with the lag.


Okay, I'll try that later. Doing Christmas shopping today. If it works I'll let you know my results, and I would love to see a thread on how to reduce lag. We all got it, we all hate it, we all gotta deal with it. A lag reduction thread would be great!

Ok, I can stare at the football players butts for a little while in tights, but I lose interest pretty fast. Seen one tight butt seem 'em all.

I just meant that the sorority girls at the U of Arizona all wear Uggs with mini skirts. *shrug* I guess it's the fashion, LOL.

Well, sweaty hot feet in fur and cold legs has no logic. I was always too logical to be a cheerleader or even go to a hs football game. Well, went to one.

how to make socks??

I think there are tutorials out there for that :)

for slacks on the pants layer, shorten them to wear with boots and they won't show thru.

pants on the underpants layer tuck in naturally.
