When I was building my home sims, I discovered I needed rocks and well, I couldn't find what I wanted. Hence, I made rocks and a sky island, I also made some for the beach with flat tops for sunbathing. You never know where you will want to sunbathe.

Well, I made the male goldfinch and afterwards I felt like I really should have done the female as well. So, I did. My apologies to anyone that took the box yesterday, I added the females to the same box. I just felt like he looked lonely.

Well, I released a novelty item today. Every once in a while (well, maybe more often than that) I get obsessed with something goofy. I always thought stick men were cute, don't know why, I just do. So, I made animesh and avatar stick people. There are regular ruth size and also tiny versions. I put them on the second floor of the shop building right in front of the elevator. They are dancing in the landing zone purely for my entertainment :).

The Art Factory is about art and artists. At The Art Factory, we display art; we appreciate art; we learn about art; and, we promote art. We have over a dozen galleries dedicated to in-world artists, where they show their innovative creations. As such, we are continuing our feature - Meet the Artist. This week, we interviewed Antonia Ling, owner of Antonia Ling Gallery, Inspired By Gallery, Metropolis Poster Shop, and a 2001 themed gallery.

Antonia, tell us about yourself and your art.
“It's not easy to talk about myself. What have I to say about my person? Not much... really. I like photography and I like to photograph. I love to photograph old churches when I'm in Denmark. Or ships in the harbor... often details. Not the big ones, I prefer little old boats of the local fishermen. I like to photograph old cars and colorful flowers. I love art from the 1920s to today, I love a lot of the german BAUHAUS and their Master like Kandinsky, Alberts or Lazlo Moholy-Nagy.”

What are you doing currently?
“I try to photograph a bit. At the moment I deal with cyanotype. It fascinates me...”

What is your inspiration for art in world?
“I do what I do because I like to do it. When one in a million likes it... I'm happy.”

Thank you so much for your interview, Ms. Ling. We love your ongoing contributions to The Factory.

It's really not that hard to be ranked #4 on OpenSim when you plant 8 avatars in your region and just keep them there. I really think that is being very deceitful and skewing the OpenSim numbers to raise yourself in the rank. Regions that have been found to have avatars that are just put there 24/7 should have the region deleted and it should not be allowed. Not only is this grid owner stealing people's regions but now they are lying about who is actually occupying their region to raise themselves in the ranks. Awful!

Come for the freebies. Stay for the sites! Take your time exploring this beautiful sim, filled with picturesque views, large forests, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, and beaches. Don't forget to visit Santa along the way.

JAPANESE MAPLE TREES PACK with animated leaves ** FREE and FULL PERM ** Available at BOX 02 at FOREST AREA (ground). Many options of trees sizes and seasonal textures (spring, summer, 8 kinds of autumn and 2 for winter). Also included leaf particles rezer for this time of year. Enjoy :)

SIX KINDS of sculpted wild grasses and weeds for ur place! ALL FREE and FULLPERM at GARDEN AREA BOX 01 with seasonal textures (and this time I put the standart size and also the reduced 128x128 pixels one that helps reduce graphic lag when many are rezed).

I had the pleasure of attending one of Gertie's sets. What I loved the most about her was her upbeat and exuberant personality. I wanted to create something to remember her by. This charm bracelet has a music note with her name. Free-Full Perms

A statement:

This is a world for avatars. If you put your avatar face in the profile, instead of the standard default picture, you get much more reactions and attention for your posts here in the forum. A standard profile picture does not specifically encourage you to open an account and take a closer look. If a profile is not maintained, the contributions and grid are usually the same. It takes effort, patience and perseverance to get people on his grid. Action = reaction. This is never quick! ;-)

Eine Feststellung:

Das hier ist eine Welt für Avatare. Wenn Du Dein Avatar Gesicht ins Profil gibst, an Stelle des Standardes Vorgabe Bildes, bekommst Du wesentlich mehr Reaktionen und Aufmerksamkeit für Deine Posts hier im Forum. Ein Standard Profil Bild animiert nicht speziell einen Account zu öffnen und näher anzusehen. Wenn ein Profil nicht gepflegt wird, sind meistens auch die Beiträge und Grid so. Um Leute auf sein Grid zu bringen, braucht es Anstrengung, Geduld und Ausdauer. Aktion = Reaktion. Das geht nie auf die schnelle! ;-)

After all the darkness I need light,warmth,romantic, hot cocoa, cookies, egg nogg and a lot more again..I agree with Mariah Carey. The earlier- the better and it gives time to create a beautifully Christmassy Sim. The teleport /access to all three winter btw.Christmas Sims (Genesis, Xanten, and Atmos) is now open. Please use the teleporter at the landing point or mark the places itself after tp. New items on every sim

Only a few days left until Halloween, so here are two of my rare Halloween collection packages for you.
Don't forget! On October 30th, everything will be removed and packed into vendors.

Now it was really the last for Halloween ;-)

Buoys! Performed some updates on this buoy. PBR makeover and now this buoy bobs and rocks in the water. (Place in sim water and then touch it to auto height adjust.) Also some PBR materials in the shop, custom signs at request.

Was für ein Verhalten von den Betreibern von Virtual Vista Metaworld, ich habe meinem Herzen Luft ngemacht über das Verhalten der zwei und einen Comment geschrieben, innerhalb kürzester Zeit gelöscht.
Nun habe ich Antwort von Emma bekommen:
Also du bist ja der allerletzte, mit welchem recht wirst du beleidigend. Du hattest immer einen gut laufenden grid, der von unserer Entwicklerin gewartet wird. Deine üble Nachrede zeugt von deinem üblen Charackter. Schäme dich und geh uns aus dem weg. Solche leute wie du sind bei uns nicht erwünscht, und wollen wir auh nicht. Und pass blos auf das deine üble phrophezeiung nicht au dich selbst zurück fällt. Zum Glück besteht Opensim nicht aus solchen Leuten und Konsorten wie du einer bist.

Wow was für eine Betreiberin und was für eine Antwort von ihr.

Ich habe niemand beleidigt und nur Tatsachen benannt, aber damit kann man wohl nicht umgehen.

Hope you guys are enjoying my OpenSIM ONLINE Weather System V1.1.. Working on a V2- (version 2) - because I never stop lol - So ,some few news, message now given to owner shows extra info like, date and local time, also a giant sculpt cloud that shows when needed and the weather system on display that one could rez it to show to visitors. Still need some refinements and tweaks but I`m getting there.,.,,

It took a little figuring out to get this little cutie uploaded from blender but I figured it out after getting an error message about the physics. I just had to change the physics and it MOOved right in and she's Udderly Adorable. I added some flowers and a fencepost and created a cute little scene for in a yard or close to a barn or just anywhere you'd like to put her, she won't created a "beef" about it. She's full perm and free and you can find her in the Garden Center next to Flower Power. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

OPENSIM Online Weather SYSTEM RECALL - FOR THOSE who came to FLORA since I have first posted about this product:

I have just fixed (final tweaks I hope) on the Lightning add-on (the Thunderbox). There are 4 boxes, invisbile, that I forgot to resize it to the mininum possible (0.0001m) so they won`t show up when the thunder sound and lightning are triggered.
Sorry for the inconvenience. Once again... one should never release a new product at 3.am lolol
