What you see here now . . . . .

Me and Prima.

Yeah. We both wear black, have dark hair, dark make-up. What some would call "goth". Just depends on your point of view I guess.

Looks reasonably similar, I just usually make myself taller and thinner.

I hate photos of me. You can see better ones at www.taintedprincess.deviantart.com

Hopefully we don't have to do this again. :)

tailor made . . . .

Okay so I've been giving it some thought about what we should do in the class and what I would like to do. I realy think I'd like to tackle making clothes. I mean you can change your body in so many different ways in second life so I'm not sure how you would get around that.

Maybe I could just make my own body that people would have to use while wearing my clothes.

No matter was is decided in class clothes are still going to be needed. I'm sure I could figure out a way so I could make them. I'm not really into the whole item making thing, nor do I want to make houses and landscapes.

People always need accessories, shoes, bags, clothes, make up and hair. From what I see there really isn't that much of it that is that great. I could even do costumes. Now that would be wicked.

I guess I shall have to wait and see what is decided in class.

hello canoes . . . .

Yup! That's right! After visiting and reviewing 3 places on Second Life we were asked to create something. I was stuck for an idea so I used one of Dale's ideas and built myself a canoe.

This is my canoe.



Isn't it pretty? I'm very proud of my canoe. I might add in a tail thingy later, and maybe a ring thingy on the side for the oars to be threaded through. I always hate trying to texture these damn things. I don't have any textures yet besides the default ones. I'll probably go looking for some in a freebie warehouse later. So I end today with another shot, this time it's me in my canoe!!



God knows what I'm looking at but 2 points for trying to sail in a canoe which resides on land. Go Prima!! She's got smarts. *giggle*

Later

the cavern . . . .

Name: The Cavern

Like: Some of the decor is kinda cool. Spacious, could probably do with something more to it.




Dislike: The fact that the description missed out on a few things. After closer inspection it turned out to be s bdsm, strip joint place. At least the people there were happy to talk to me.

Come back?: Most likely not. It's not my kinda thing.

damania . . . .

Name: Damania

Like: The architecture of Damania is fascinating. It looks like it's built of a kind of metal, possibly copper or gold. It is all curveous and slinky. When you enter into Damania you see a billboard when, if you click on it, will teleport you to that place on the map. Saves allot of time. In Damania lots of things are available to buy. You can buy fantastic houses, sculptures, classy furniture, old fashioned cars or even a cat!! Although it all seems just a little bit expensive.







you can even play some kind of car game there too.



Dislike: Nothing really. It loads relatively quickly and is very easy to navigate around thanks to the mapping system. The only problem I have with it is that everything is very expensive.

Come back?: Maybe when I get some money to spend. I'd have to be in it for the long run though otherwise it will just seem like a waste.

hidden leaf village . . . .

Name: Hidden Leaf Village

Likes: The place actually resembles the Hidden Leaf Village, Konoha, from the anime series Naruto. It very bright and seems very easy to navigate around.




Dislikes: There seems to be a large abundance of rules that you have to abide by.

Come back?: If I was interested in joining a online role playing Naruto themed space I would definately come back, it would take some preparation though. Getting the right clothing, learning the rules and such might just take a little more time than I'm willing to give at the moment though.

so many ideas, so little time . . . .

So here I am. It's midday and I'm still in my pj's!! Gosh I love my day off uni. Anyway I said I would update and so here I am. Here are a list of the ideas that we came up with in class for our island which I stole from Dale's site.

* Pirate ship
* Theme Park
* Mutant/Minion/Fights
* Kill them all
* Human Body
* Underwater
* Chocolate Land
* Safari/Zoo/Farm
* Harry Potter
* Virtual Melbourne
* Alpine (Snow, caves, igloos etc)
* VU Building
* Net of future
* Alice in Wonderland
* 19th Century Aussie Town with droids
* Extreme Sports
* Online Festivals
* Stoneage/Medieval
* Creative Platform
* Evil Lair/Battlezone
* Second heaven and hell
* TV World
* Art Gallery/Museum
* Bot band
* PC Land
* Coluseum/Parthenon
* Historical
* Supermario/Family Guy/FF/WOW/Simpsons
* Shopping mall/arcades
* Comic book world
* Space station/Moonpad
* Alien Planet
* City of the Future - Cultures of the past
* Lego theme
* Abbatoir/Torture
* Mansion
* Racing
* Fashion House
* Neverending disco
* Garbage dump
* 50s B Movie
* Musicals/Theatre/Concerts
* Gangster town

We took up allot of space on the white board. I really like the human body idea, a full blown community inside of a human body. You could have a bar in the liver!!

Since I'm such a little morbid thing as well I love the idea of having an abbatoir/torture chamber kind of thing. Have like rotting bodies everywhere, tools used for gruesome experiments and massive structures full of secret rooms and passages. Not to mention the blood. We could make a lake of blood, or even rotting flesh!!

Doing something in an Alpine setting would work too. I wonder if you could make it so that everyone on the island randomly shivered so it gave more of a sense of being cold, or everyone walked about with a little cloud infront of their mouths so it looked like they were breathing in very cold weather. Even if we could engineer it so it actually looked like it snowed would be pretty awesome too.

Well it's time for me to get some breakfast/lunch.

Cheers.
