Pep (and when it comes down to it, all you can offer is your own perspective;others can choose to recognise its worth at their leisure; acknowledging my opinion as worth responding to validates it; thank you.  )Well, that you too, then! PS This is a fantasy land; 'truth' and 'lies' are concepts which, if they have any validity, are very different from the real world. Thanks for the admission.  _____________________

Ahhh - glad to see most folks are still here. RL has been crazy. It looks like I missed a lot. I would have enjoyed the wearing gray (or grey) day. Oh well . . .
I have not read the four days of thread I missed other than in patches. I hope everyone is at peace and well. Now I'm off to try my idea of building SL models for RL paintings. "See" you in group IM.  |

Hi Puppy; /me pats puppy. Can you explain a little more what you mean here? SL models for RL paintings? Sounds interesting! |

PS This is a fantasy land; 'truth' and 'lies' are concepts which, if they have any validity, are very different from the real world. Pep, I wonder about this concept; you have said many times that your persona is different, in the forums than inworld; I agree about inworld being a 'fantasy' ; for some I suppose that's true. But here you say 'This' is a fantasy land. Somehow, even though we use our SL names here, I don't see 'this' , meaning the forums, as being a fantasy land where truth and lies are concepts, which, if they have any validity, are very different from the 'real world'. It's rather an interesting way of thinking I suppose, but so alien to my own that I question it. Maybe because I don't RP, myself, especially with 'truth and lies'. In my mind, the forums are different than being inworld, and while of course, I have no personal knowledge of whether anyone 'lies' here or not, I rather think it unlikely, and thought that you also, viewed the forums as different from being inworld, hence your different behaviors in the 2 places. |

Treasure, you need look no further than the kid avatars than to have an example of the way in which truth/lies are blurry in these forums even. Pep (I don't want to start a discussion about them, but all you have to do is consider that Mari plays with fireworks.) Fireworks? You mean by posting pics here of inworld things she's done 'there'? Well that's understandable, it is a forum about SL. But you get into a conversation with Mari here and she speaks just like any adult, it's not like she's rp'ing in the forums. Look at the posts, just today, from people who play kid avatars. They aren't 'kidspeaking', they are holding a discussion in the forums like anyone else. I suppose this is a fine line I'm trying to draw here, it just surprised me to see you say that, as, outside of the names, I don't really see anyone rp'ing here. Weston talks, not barks, but he uses a beagle avatar. It's just representative, not 'lies'. As I said, perhaps this is just too fine of a line. |

Hi Puppy; /me pats puppy. Can you explain a little more what you mean here? SL models for RL paintings? Sounds interesting! I'll post more about this if it works. In brief, I'm using SL as an easy 3D rendering tool to make quick and dirty sketches to get the perspective right for RL illustrations. I can transfer a snapshot directly to the illustration board. That way I don't have to use a bunch or really large templates, straight edges, vanishing points and so forth. It may be just another excuse to justify my being in world - I don't know.  I'll post the results if it works. |

I'd like to see your results from your experiments Weston, when you're ready to show them. _____________________

While we were waiting for the wedding to start (wow, that's a lot of 'w' words) I took the opportunity to get in a snapshot of Clover and I in some spiffy duds

Can you believe they did not set the pose balls to fit us? Like any one cares if the bride and groom match up

We cut loose on the dance floor though.
  That, thankfully, is not the bride and groom behind us. =>.<= |

Mistress gave the bride away. She's a RL friend of ours. I kept crashing so didn't get any shots during the ceremony. =V.V=

Oooh That sounds fun. I can't wait to hear about it when you get back. It was a blast! The weather was perfect; sunny; about 70-75 degrees (F), not humid...and just the right number of visitors wandering through the build. Listened to some great musicians, did some shopping, saw some jousting, and greatly enjoyed the costumes many people were wearing today. |
