I'm baaaaaaaack................

Computer problems 75% solved. After some mix up I was *finally* mailed the correct fan for my laptop and installed it and everything is working. And now with a semi-updated photoshop I can blog.....

So you guys probably know all about these things, but since I haven't been around I really haven't heard much about it. There's a grid wide Gorean hunt (not kid friendly) taking place until the end of this month (read more about it at the sponsor's website here). You'll be searching for a Talendar Flower at each store. Some signs still display the end date as being January 19th, but with the extension the end is January 31. Which if you've been putting this hunt off is a good thing! The first couple of places were relatively easy to find and from there the flowers just are a bit hard to find & with no 'I give up' landmark to the next place if you get stumped you're forced to give up on the entire hunt or contact the coordinator for assistance.

I'd really recommend doing this hunt with several people so you can help each other (unless you're an experienced hunter). This is probably your best plan of attack since the flowers which you are hunting for move. ;) You'll find that not all of the objects are limited to the Gorean 'lifestyle' and you're sure to find a couple new merchants that you'll want to keep track of. The hunt prizes include: silks & camisks, free women's attire, jewelry/accessories, an animation, haremn tent, (lots of really nice) furniture & house accessories, cloak, male clothing, & a gift certificate.

I'm showing all the clothing items with the new release hairs from House of Heart and Bewitched Hair Designs - a preview color of each new hair style is completely free at both of these stores each time hair is released. The hair shown in the preview are styles from House of Heart's January 6th releases and from Bewitched's January 12th releases. All skins are from On The Catwalk Studio & Skins' lucky chair (Thank you Benedetta & Fay for the tps ^.^) which changes letters every 5 minutes. Eyes used are from ::EbiShop::!

I made modesty shorts to wear with many of the outfits. You can do this by opening your inventory > from the CREATE menu > select NEW CLOTHES > you'll want to create NEW PANTS or UNDERPANTS. The new pants will appear in your clothing folder. Wear the pants and then right click your avatar and select appearance and then edit your pants or underpants tinting to a shade that is close to your skintone.
