Things going shiney

I have noticed many texture changes over the past weeks.

Pose balls as you stated as well as other items changing completely.
A clothing article is totaly borked , i even bought a new one thinking it may have just been mine but no it is all of them.

I also had a wood texture go whacky yesterday it had to be replaced. The texture even showed the defect in my saved copy in my inventory.

Bugs are crawling, wheres the exterminator?

Karmianna and Gemini, do you two know each other? Or is this just synchronicity?

In any case, I've heard some anecdotal reports of this, but--as fate would have it--no solid reproduction so we can get a better understanding. It's also important to have specifics at hand: for example, a "clothing item" is worn on the avatar and it can't be set shiny.

If you've got a way to repeat this and "incidentally make things shiny" when they're not supposed to be, that would be fabulous. You can send a bug report inworld from HELP menu ---> REPORT BUG and also please let me know what you've discovered. (You can IM, PM, or email me at [email]torley@lindenlab.com[/email].)

Then we'll be able to exterminate this bug better.

Also please check if this happens in Second Life Preview 1.10 and make sure your graphics card drivers are updated.
