The Frugal Fashionista @ Albero Winter Sweethearts Festival
January 13, 2010
If anyone is NOT a fan of wintertime, it’s me. Â All the freezing cold temperatures and the bland white snow make me go a little bonkers, so each winter I spend a lot of time complaining and waiting (impatiently) for springtime. Â But now, thanks to the Albero Winter Sweethearts Festival, I might be just a [...]
Avatars in Avatars
January 12, 2010
I think the majority of SL residents agree that stealing from content creators within SL is wrong, ripping skins from well known creators, changing minor details and then selling them for profit is unacceptable. There is nothing I can do about this apart from letting the creator know and not buying from the ripper. As [...]

Sandboxes, are they for building or passing around ripped content?
January 11, 2010

Dear Lauren Neutron… Week 6
January 2, 2010
Hey boys and girls! I was away for Christmas last week, sorry. Five days with Grandma asking me why I’m not married yet, and suggesting I poke holes in the boyfriend’s condoms to trap him into a proposal – painful times. It’s ok though, the only think drunker than her was me. Anyway. Happy new [...]

Morphing breaks copyright?
December 21, 2009
‘Morph’ photography has become more and more popular in SL, and although I personally find them hideous and creepy as hell, everyone has their personal taste and who am I to question that? People morph images/blend images all the time, nothing wrong with that, using various backdrops, models and finishing touches to produce a new [...]
