gotta brag for a moment! First, I managed to score a spot in th' Luna Oaks Galleria f'r the next six months. They released all the spaces of people who won in the lottery but never claimed, and I managed to get one of em. So some of my plants are there. Yay!  Also, The most recent photo contest in Grignano had its awards today, and I was one of the three winners, for my photo "Workin' at th' Car Wash. Yay x2!  I jes hadda say.  _____________________

Ha ha! that was pretty fun. I stumped him with "strum" but he was quite prepared to "fly", "sing", "play air guitar", "cartwheel", "hug", "kiss", "jump", "eat", "turn", "dance", and "listen". When I told him to "walk on hands" he just walked. He wouldn't 'spin' or 'twirl,' but he would 'turn.' Weirdo. _____________________

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things. Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut. |

I think your stuff is probably way more interesting than mine; that might mean it appeals to less people. It might be true that raising your prices won't cause more people to buy - although it might, people tend to assume that more expensive stuff is more desirable. But with higher prices you would make more money on the same amount of sales. If I sell a lot of something I raise the price gradually, if no one buys something I lower it a bit. None of my stuff is a major purchase. One thing I'm pretty sure of is that the more goods you have on display the more likely people are to decide to choose something to buy. By the way you know you can upload test textures to the beta grid for free, right? There were turning points in my life that I wonder about now. Opportunities that might have made quite a difference if I'd been able to take advantage of them. Oh well. Sleep well dear FD. At this point any lower it just be given for free the prices aren't that high in first place. I think no one knows about what I do or it just too different for their taste. Either way I its not like I have endless energy to wake up do first life stuff, create some and do everything I need to run a business too. I just woke up from six hour nap and feel like I need another eight. Hugs Kaimi and every one else. _____________________

The more you have the more people will buy. Ha. I probably have more time energy than you do but I still don't follow my own advise and get busy making new clothes. But at least my shops pretty much take care of themselves. I hope you get some more sleep soon. Hugs. _____________________

I say try raising your prices! But really I think the best thing anyone with a store can do is put out more and more merchandise. The more you have the more people will buy. Ha. I probably have more time energy than you do but I still don't follow my own advise and get busy making new clothes. But at least my shops pretty much take care of themselves. I hope you get some more sleep soon. Hugs. What I need to do is put out more products while finding several already established places that people will my product that have spare room for about 1 to 4 Onrez vendors which is about 6 to 24 prims. The problem is I am no longer willing to pay rent to places I never or rarely see a sale because I literally can't afford putting out any more money. At this point it seems like for every 3000L$ I pay for comfortable, high traffic place I am lucky if I can earn 150L. When I was working on creating 70 to 40 hours a week I could never produce enough products I felt were good enough. Being perfectionist for every product it can take me 40 hours 120 hours more and when I sold few things for 150 I might have sold one a month if I was lucky a month. For every private commissioned job their is whole other host of issues like project not working out due to it just not working way I wanted, more stressed, more mistakes or I will spend hours a special commissioned texture and even if I get paid for it, I will be lucky if I make 60L$ a hour. If it was just fun and nothing else was going on that was creating stress it is perfect okay to create stuff and only post few images now then, maybe get 100L a every few months. Either way I love creating for sake of creating on my good days it is like a meditation but for some reason sometimes on my grumpier days which seem more and more often it seems like I feel incredibly discouraged with everything. But that sort of down side that goes with being a Artist, it is easy to feel starved, invisible and overlooked unless you're extremely confident and able to promote what you do well. And I am not the most confident nor best at self promoting, handling business or recieving money. Be it in SL or FL. Anyway I think I just got winter blahs. I am going back to bed. Take care all.

I recommend the Peace on Earth Grid-wide hunt. I wish I knew how addictive these events are... I wore out before I could finish. I unpacked only two gifts from two of my favorite shopping destinations and I love them!
Off to sleep. There is always tomorrow! Peace on Earth. |

Since this seems to be the hodge podge of posts....
For those of you who love getting skins, especially free ones, head over to lionskins they are discontinuing their current line and letting them go for free (not sure how long) at the time of this post the sim is full, however if you map and TP to the adjacent sim, you can turn up the draw distance and cam over and get them that way here is the slurl to their place http://slurl.com/secondlife/Smaug/224/127/35 good luck (just ahem... ignore and let this one die if someone else has already posted about this... hehe) _____________________
