Help Island Public 2

If you've been out of the loop there's a new Help Island Public on the Block. Help Island Public2 which at the moment doesn't seem to be included in the Library landmarks folder. So if you'd like to visit help island public in a less laggy & less populated environment you may want to check out Help Island Public2. You'll find the same tutorials, free store, textures, sandbox, and other amentities available at other Help Islands here too.

Freebie Store

According to the following article: "sandboxes are open to the public". Just like in a school yard sandboxes are prone to a bit of bullying & griefing. If you are being harassed in the sandbox and you are complying with the rules (no nudity, no weapons, following the tos & community standards) then you should proceed by filing an abuse report (harassment). You might try im-ing the person before filing an Abuse Report (AR), but if this will cause further grief file an AR. This article takes you through the steps on how to file an abuse report. Unfortunately if the abuse is taking place over voice it is un-recordable/not includable in an AR at the moment. To combat voice abuse simply go to edit on the top menu> prefrences (last choice in edit menu)> voice chat tab (8th tab)> and uncheck the enable voice chat box. This will disable chat. (*If someone knows how to include voice recording in an abuse report PLEASE COMMENT*.)

Sandbox
(Help Island Public2 sandbox - This sandbox was nearly empty. So if you're looking to brush up on your beginning tutorials on how to make and edit prims this sandbox is waiting.)

Help Island Public and Help Island Public2 are available to all residents and public. If you have a problem you'll need to file an abuse report to remedy any harassment taking place there. You might also benefit from muting the resident in question (the instructions for muting a resident are included in the how to file an abuse report link). You should NOT retaliate against the offender; file an AR. Much of Help Island Public(2) allows building so if your project is small you could possibly move until the situation is resolved. You can read more about Help Island here and I hope the information provided in the link clears up any confusion as to if parts of the Help Island Public are privately owned and how to handle abuse.


If all else fails there are also several other sandboxes available. You may find both public and private sandboxes by using the search button on the bottom menu bar of your browser. Searching on either the All tab or Places tab would yield the best results. NCI is an excellent resource for both new and old citizens alike who like to build and NCI has many locations.


You can also use the search options to search almost any interest you may have and you'll likely find an area to visit or groups that share common interest. Good luck & hope this helps on your journey!

Fall iz Coming

If you're ready to bundle up then here's some comfy wears for you! You'll find the Sweaters & Earmuff set at Marianas Pulli-shop and it's completely free and comes with hair, but I opted for an amorepacific style. If you're ready for winter you'll love the area around Marianagelina11 oh's shop. Thanks Marianagelina for the tip about your freebie! Being as it's not yet icy where I am (mwahahahaha) I opted to use the lovely fall trees at Unusual Isle (home of She's so Unusual Shoes) as a backdrop. ($0; F possibly M?; sweater; http://slurl.com/secondlife/MeetingSupport/224/15/21 ) .

Lawson Station & Surrounding Area

Lawson Station is a freebie area where you will find a mixture of well circulated freebie standards like textures, furniture, particle systems, flight feather, & face (emotion) huds. You'll also find a couple of original freebies, some available at the stores offering them here for free and others are exclusive to this area. So you may want to swing by Lawson Station and take a brief look around. The store is not packed so it shouldn't take long to browse the area. ($0; m/f; freebie area; http://slurl.com/secondlife/Walker%20Island/120/238/40)

You'll find things for girls....

You'll find things for guys....

You'll find things for non-human Avs....

Lawson Station _ Non Human AV

You'll also find a number of things for the home & building aids.

On Walker Island sim where Lawson Station is located you'll find a small shopping district on the south west corner of the sim. Most stores have put out a freebie in store, but you'll want to pay particular attention to a couple of spots.

The Mode Shop
has an entire free room. You'll find shirts and unisex accessories here. All items are completely free. ($0; m/f; shirts/accessories; http://slurl.com/secondlife/Walker%20Island/4/150/37)

The Mode Shop

Since you'll probably spot MODE in the corner of this sim, I'll write a bit about it. If you like exploring you'll also want to take a look at MODE which is an area that displays pictures of outfits, information on the outfits, & in front of each picture of the outfit you'll find slurls for each piece in the outfit. Some of these slurls are outdated, but a number of them did yield at least one freebie while others were a complete bust. Although you may not find the exact freebie pictured at Mode you'll find a lot of interesting areas to explore. So this might be something to do when you're bored and in search of some freebies or when you're in the mood for shopping since most of the items that did cost were still available at the slurls displayed. (Information area - http://slurl.com/secondlife/Walker%20Island/41/69/40 One example - Shira Taki a kimono shop yielded a male and female kimono outfit retailing at $500 now free $0 - http://slurl.com/secondlife/SGLand/118/27/31)

Prozak

One quick post before I pass out. I ran across a store named Prozak where everything was free. Goods consisted mainly of women's clothing & boots, but there was an entire wall of tatts which would surely interest the guys too. ($0; F/uni; clothing/tats; http://slurl.com/secondlife/Moonlight%20Requiem/162/149/29)

Kiss This

Kiss This has out a pair of outrageously lovely legwarmers & shoes as their monthly freebie. A word of caution: This mission if you choose to undertake it is a covert operation. Apparently there's a tp point set and it lands you beneath the store's sky box. So before you tp make sure you are flying; then cam in and sit on the teddy bear; now you're set to stand & browse the items in store.

Soldering Wire, Check

I got sort of torqued after waiting all day to see if I could bring my lappy to a local computer dr. that I decided to take matters in to my own hands. I figured it was a lost cause & it was confooked beyond repair. So what harm could I do? I'm happy to say... \o/ Yay! I iz does solder and have hopefully fixed my laptop. I'm amazed that I took it apart and put it back together (nevermind it took 4 hours). And it works, lol. Actually, I'm stunned. And did I mention it works? Even my bf is beyond impressed at my skill*z*. (ssshhh, I didn't tell him I took apart my parents' washer when I was 11 & fixed it with the assisstance of my 6 yr old brother. \o/ Yay for polariods to remember where all the pieces went too!)

Now at long last (oi, almost a week without photoshop=( ), I'm able to take pictures! So I'm going to go back & add some pics to the post below, but I'm sooooo behind that I wanted to start a new entry too.....

You can pick up the cutest cartoony unisex panda skin at Free Style. This skin is an excelent pick for hunts!!! Since there are no naughty bits you can fly around sans clothes and be totally adorable. You'll find the skin in a bill ($) stuck in a manaquin head. I made simple round prim ears tinted black for mine, but the skin does include non prim hair layer ears. ($0; m/f; skin; http://slurl.com/secondlife/Free%20Style/207/155/22)

Besides the dress shown below they also have a super sexy lingerie set that will get your lover purring, a unisex logowear tshirt, and a lovely $1 skin for girls.

OUCH!

Yep, it appears that my laptop finally coughed up it's last hair ball. It's packed up and going off to a local dr. as soon as I get a call back. I'm suspecting that it's dead, dead, dead, though. So I'll be on the still alive, but even more craptaculous mac lappy with no way to take pics for a while. I suggest you check out some of the great freebie blogs linked in the right column and the couple of free blogs that are linked to this one via linkback for freebie info with accompanying photos.

Please if you're sending out blogger care packs keep in mind that I won't be able to post for 1 week (if the laptop is fixable) up to 3 weeks (if I have to order & then wait for delivery of a new computer).

For all you guys reading for the freebies, sorry for no pictures! But, I do have a couple of places that you'll probably want to check out.
