I want to thank everyone who participated in our little poll yesterday regarding adoption of PBR viewers. The tally as of today: 45% of the 29 respondents said they love it, 28% said they had tried it but had reverted back, and 14% said they had no interest in using one.

As I have shown before, the pic above shows the difference between PBR and full Blinn-Phong materials. Both are the best I was able to accomplish with each graphics engine. Both are part of all my builds now, so users can decide how they want to see them.

As many of you know, I've always been an early adopter and proponent of new viewer features, such as materials and eep, and used them in everything, regardless of how widely adopted the tech was among the user base. And as with pbr now, the primary early adopters are usually artists, designers, and creators, because we are are supported by a great group of patrons who enable us to keep doing what we love and push the limits of creation on this platform. So, if a user doesn't want to upgrade, we understand and we accommodate, but if they do, they're in for a treat :-)

Come on over to the space jam dance with the world famous DJ Hazel. clothing optional get free kudos and admiration if you wear your best space outfit. Happy Friday!

Liebe Community,
seit wenigen Stunden werde ich in Facebook massiv von einer Person attackiert – mit haltlosen Unterstellungen wie Fake-Identität, toxisches Verhalten und sogar Pädophilie. Solche Vorwürfe sind nicht nur verletzend, sondern strafbar.
Ganz ehrlich: dieser Ärger bringt mich an meine Grenzen. Nach über 15 Jahren in OpenSim frage ich mich manchmal, ob es das noch wert ist. Aber dann denke ich an all die Menschen, Projekte und an unsere gemeinsame Community – und das ist der einzige Grund, warum ich nicht einfach hinschmeiße.
Ich will hier nur klarstellen: Diese Anschuldigungen sind frei erfunden und haben keinerlei Substanz. Meine Energie gehört weiterhin Dorena_AI, der Kunst und unserer Welt – nicht dem Gift einzelner Personen.
Wer mich angreifen will, soll wissen: Ich lasse mich nicht einschüchtern. Meine Projekte wachsen weiter – trotz allem.

AH, ihr Name ist Vanessa Keune...
Dear Community,
for the past few hours I have been massively attacked on Facebook by a person – with baseless accusations such as fake identity, toxic behavior, and even pedophilia. Such allegations are not only hurtful, but also punishable by law.

To be honest: this whole situation is pushing me to my limits. After more than 15 years in OpenSim, I sometimes ask myself if it’s still worth it. But then I think of all the people, the projects, and our shared community – and that is the only reason why I don’t simply give up.

I just want to make it clear: these accusations are fabricated and have absolutely no substance. My energy continues to belong to Dorena_AI, to art, and to our world – not to the poison of a single person.

Whoever tries to attack me should know: I will not be intimidated. My projects will continue to grow – despite everything.

AH, her name is Vanessa Keune...

Like every year, Osgrid is scheduling auctions.
This isn't just an event; it's a way for the grid to fund itself. The grid operates solely through your donations.
But you can also donate one of your creations for the auction.
Have a good Friday and a good weekend.

This beautiful Mayan-style ziggurat is available for you to add to your region if you are into ancient builds, sci-fi, and/or sci-fi fantasy. The stairs are very easy to climb, the Mayan carvings are original art from my AI Art program, and it has 2 floors inside with corner steps and serpent railing. The stone block texture is travertine, a commonly used stone in ancient times, but you can retexture it however you like. It's mesh, so it is modifiable, but that is limited. You can find this little gem in the "Ancient Builds" department of our mall. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

3 PM to 5 PM grid time - Today @ Abyss Club DJ Diamondz from Downunder ! On Pangea-Grid. A different club to enjoy good music while having fun :)
"Hailing from Australia, DJ Diamondz has been spinning tracks for over 5 years. She has performed at clubs in SL and on different grids in OS. She is a passionate music lover who brings the beats to every event!" This will be held at my partners Eden Sim .. in Pangea.

About Rigged Jewelry in My Shop

Some visitors have asked about resizing or rigging jewelry to fit their avatars. Here’s how it works:

Rings: My rings are rigged for a standard female hand shape. Often they will also fit men’s avatars, but for a perfect fit I would need to rig the ring to that exact avatar’s mesh. That requires uploading their full avatar to Blender, which most people understandably don’t want to (or don’t know how to) do. Because of the time and complexity involved, I don’t offer custom rigging.

Necklaces & Other Jewelry: Rigging necklaces to avatars isn’t practical. They tend to move in unrealistic ways, “flopping” around the body. Static or unrigged versions usually look better in-world.

Why I Don’t Offer Rigging Services: Every avatar body and hand mesh is different, and keeping up with all of them would be impossible. Rigging each piece individually takes significant time and effort.

I appreciate everyone who visits and enjoys my creations. Please know that what you see in the shop is what’s available—ready to wear as-is.

As part of our overall "facelift" for the mall, I have built a new ziggurat with more of a Mayan feel and used textures I made in my AI art program. The men's and women's shops are up, though they are not completely filled yet; we're working on that. All of the homes have been moved and categorized as "Victorian", "Modern", "Log Buildings", "Farms", and "Service Buildings". Our aim with all of this is to make things easier to find and more accessible for our patrons. We do this because elegance is an attitude and shopping should be an adventure. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

Die musikalische Odyssee des Roger Chapman

In den Annalen der britischen Rockmusik gibt es Stimmen, die man sofort erkennt, und es gibt Stimmen, die eine ganze Ära definieren. Roger Maxwell Chapman, geboren am 8. April 1942 in der englischen Industriestadt Leicester, gehört unbestreitbar zur letzteren Kategorie. Seine Fans kennen ihn liebevoll als „Chappo“, und sein Name steht synonym für eine der kraftvollsten, rauesten und emotionalsten Gesangsdarbietungen, die je aus dem Vereinigten Königreich kamen.

YES – eine Band, die den Begriff Progressive‑Rock mitgeprägt hat

Ende der 1960er Jahre trafen sich in London Musiker mit unterschiedlichen Wurzeln – aus Beat‑, Psychedelic‑ und Club‑Szene – und suchten nach einem neuen Klangbild, das Virtuosität, mehrstimmigen Gesang und lange, dramaturgisch aufgebaute Stücke vereinte. Aus der Keimzelle Mabel Greer’s Toyshop formte sich 1968 eine Besetzung mit Jon Anderson (Gesang), Chris Squire (Bass), Peter Banks (Gitarre), Tony Kaye (Keyboards) und Bill Bruford (Schlagzeug). Schon früh standen eigenwillige Coverversionen von The Byrds oder den Beatles neben eigenem Material; entscheidend war stets das Ziel, die Möglichkeiten einer Rockband zu erweitern.
