Windlight

Windlight set to Bree's Appleblosssom (click to enlarge)

While all viewers in SL support meanwhile the so called "windlight", Phoenix users were, as usual, a bit pampered more here. Via a small button in the lower right corner, they are able, to pick from a rich bunch of presets.

Windlight is rendered in the viewer, not serverside. The downside here is, that each viewer can have an individual windlight setting, which makes it difficult for sim owners, to have the similar experience for all guests, regarding atmoshpere/feeling.

Now, it seems, that Phoenix again goes one step further:

Windlight setting in the land description

If one enters in the land description the recommended windlight settings (see picture above), then the viewer of the visitor produces an additional icon:

Sun&Cloud=the windlight icon

Clicking this icon in the viewer, the guest gets their viewer set to, what the sim owner recommends.

Good job, Phoenix team!

(Tested under Phoenix beta 1.5.2.678, not the release version as of yet).

All quiet...

every now and then i am getting an IM, from the one or the other person, how i am doing. So, for all who want to know:
Perfect!

I have pink fingernails!

the teddy grew!

The nymph has learned how to read ;) - and is still leashed

And if you want to know more, you know where to find me :)

Awesomeness!

SL via web interface. Very early beta stage, but, try yourself!

Rating

I buy every now and then stuff at the SL marketplace. Since often i just decide, "how often will i need this?" and "am i really in the mood to script that?"...
if the answer is "often" and "no" - i buy.
Often, my buys are good ones. Sometimes, tho, i am plain disappointed when i unpack what i bought.

Today, i decided to rate what i bought over the past month. The good items, was easy.
The not so good items, well, what to do?
Somehow, i refuse to give a 1-star rating, unless the item is really crap.
I recall, we all started building and scripting once, and those creators maybe still learn. Should one discourage them with an obvious "hey, this is crap what you made?"

I do not think so.

I will IM them and tell them in detail what i found not so nice.

Maybe that will help them more than being exposed to the public with a one-star-rating.

She is back!

...does a little dance and jumps in joy with a smile like stoned....
