This is going to come across as a completely daft call for help, but seriously I appreciate any suggestions that may come my way as a response to this mail!
A couple of months ago I was house shopping with a friend. We went to a place and saw LOADS of properties, none that especially tickled his tootsie as it were, but I definitely remember seeing something rather special there. However, I couldn't justify the expense at the time- I had a thoroughly nice house and no desire to change it.
Oh how fickle am I- because now I have decided I want a new place..and I can't remember where this original store was located! I don't have it as a landmark, although I spent all of my evening trawling through all of the landmarks I have collected. Needless to say, I went to bed a broken avatar...So using your skills and deduction tactics, can you help me?
All I can remember is that the store was very large, and seemed to sell homes and fittings. The place was divided into 4 areas ( these may have been colour coded) One of them sold Gothic castles, another sold regular houses, and I think there was a futuristic option. I can't remember what the other option was at all!
It stands out in my memory because there was a wall featuring images of the houses available, and by clicking on an image you could rez a particular structure so that you could test it out. I thought that was exceptionally innovative, and worked really well.
I did try a number of places last night- Hoffman Designs, A & E Industries..and although they have gorgeous houses and I was sorely tempted, I want to go back and see if the house I remember really is 'the one that I want' ( Where's Danny and Sandy when you need them, eh?)
Any suggestions HUGELY appreciated....
Thanking you!

Kitty O'Toole =^..^= I don't think we were the ones you were thinking about, but I do invite you to check out After Dark Prefab homes on Dragon Isle. when you land take the TP up to the house lot. The vendors rez a full scale model of each house that you can walk through to aid in choice making. Also our prices are very low think the most costly house is 600L. |

LOL dark .. plug city  Ok Kitty ... may be a long shot ... but do you know of anyone who may have had a house from the designer ? ... have you seen or do you know the location of one of the designers homes ? if the answer is Yes to any of the above , Go to the house ... right click it , Look at his / her profile and in pic's or classified the " May " have an add for the store ? Worth a try . I hate it wene this happens to me .... im actualy having the same prob with a furni store atm , Its on an entire sim , the designer has VERY much the same style as " Baron Grayson " ( best furni designer in SL imo ) , This sim even had stuff by grayson for sale on it .. if anyone could help me out with that i would appriciate it

Could it have been Home Sweet Homes? They use rezzing vendors there. I'm just not so sure he sells castles.. but maybe he does..

I think it might be Myles Cooper; do a search under his name. Was the area divided up by parcel size as well?

That description sounded familiar. I am thinking Aces Spaces it is sort of a joint effort also houses called Blip. And another builder is Parker McTeague. I like to explore and check out land and I see there stuff all over the place. Their site location has various themes including some sci fi. It is funny tho, when I was knew to SL I found a great script based device, the "jump enhancer" and I love the thing. And I have never been able to find where I got that. I hope this helped.  |

I'm not sure if this is the place you're looking for, but I bought a Shona house and the creator had a wall of images and you could click on the wall and TP to the house model. This was awhile ago, so his system may have changed to the system that you are thinking of. Good luck....the same thing hapened to me last year. I couldn't recall where I had seen something I liked and then couldn't get back to it. |

... it does sound a bit like our island deco, including sally seattle's rezolution (which has goth/urban/tiki/etc.) then next to that is the ace's spaces & BLIP partnership which has the wall where you can click pictures to rez the house. in fact it sounds enough like it that i'd really like to know if it isn't!
