Some days you can't win.
Last night I was with a friend and a bunch of her other friends. One of them showed up as a cloud, and said she'd "always" been that way. I put on my Mentor Fix-It hat and walked her through the forced-Ruthing procedure to escape the cloud. It worked; she became Ruth. I told her she could now put on her normal items. Was I thanked? Nope. "Jeeze", she groaned, and TP'd away. It turned out that she couldn't remember where in inventory she'd left the skin, shape, and various other bits that made up her regular avatar, and she was very angry with me for (as she saw it) playing a trick on her. I felt really bad, but at the same time I sort of wanted to say to her, "what's your effing problem? You're now eight times better off than you were two minutes ago." _____________________

But then all the dirt will fall out when you move it. Only if you forget to texture the other sides with a planter texture. It holds the dirt in just fine. _____________________

It sounds like Jerry has accepted the challenge. How about the rest of you gentlemen? This could shape up into a Men In Silks Contest at the Hangout, followed by drinking, dancing, and fancy conversation. Well, in the contestants' case, I guess we could allow the drinking part to come before the contest part.  And if they were all in, say, RED silks...why, then, the show could take place during this Friday's party at the Hangout!!! |

Pretty, I think the blue looks the better of the two though.

@ Lindal:
1) Thanks for the step by step instructions. As always, you rock, teach! 2) Nuh uh...*I'm* the lucky one. 3) Regarding your attempt to help the new resident: I'm sorry that happened to you.  |

Lol, I prefer the blue belt actually as apart from being more attractive imo, it also fits her hips better. Agreed. _____________________

Yes...hollow, bottomless planters are all the rage this season. You can actually do a planter with a lip on it, AND dirt inside, with only two prims. 1. Create a box. Texture the top side with a dirt texture. Texture the other sides with your planter texture. 2. Drag a copy of the box upward a little. Change the texture on this one so that all the sides use your planter texture. 3. Hollow this box out...it's going to be the lip around the top of the planter. 4. With Stretch Both Sides selected, make the box a little bigger all around than the box of dirt. 5. Size it as you want in the vertical direction to make your planter box lip 6. Slide it down over the top of your dirt box. Link the prims and name the object, for neatness. Another way, would be to make one hollowed cylinder with the texture of the planter and another slightly smaller cylinder, not hollow with the dirt texture on the top, the planter texture on the bottom and the sides hidden inside the first cylinder. There's no lip on it but you can set it on a glass table top if you want to... Thanks for that Eddie Izzard Darth Vader clip, Claire. I hadn't seen it in quite a while and it is so funny. How about some Frankie Miller? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVgI-9PW2qc&feature=channel _____________________

I like the red a bit more, formal looking, very dignified. The blue is more "Woo Hoo, TGIF"

Except that red covers a lot less down below - so it's moah like "Oh Hai Boyz, come an get it here!" I sensed it from two forums across the internet away.. How is that for the draw of the red one. _____________________
