It is one of my guiding principles to never expect anything from people. That way, I'm seldom disappointed but often pleasantly surprised.

Night night Ahimsa! Sweet dreams.

okay I've been chatting with Ambrosia ref the textures and SL. While doing so I popped into a texture house and noticed one of my presets for sale in a pack of 10 same preset but different colour tones, at 375L$.

I think what Ambrosia is planning on doing is probably a good idea.

It costs the person uploading, her that is 10L$ per texture, thats why some people say she can sell them for 1L$ each to get back a bit of the money and help to pay the rent (and help to cover her upload charge for the textures) for the land she's using to run the free/cheap store on.

But She has said if your rather she didn't have your presets at the freebie store she would take them down. The 1L$ charge on them will help her with some of the fee's she is paying for herself. But she will set them to 0L$ if you would prefer, allowing her to have the textures, and stopping others in SL making money from the presets (while making people aware where the textures came from to start with).

Okay if that doesn't make sense let me know..

I let her know that it's ok to use my textures and I will be sending her the types she asked for.

Thanks about the robot one. I liked making that one.

Someone wake me up when this is no longer an eula thread.

same thing...

yup, very same thing and all moot since they can sell them, rip them up, alter them and do damn well anything they want with them, including the presets, without any consideration toward the author. so, yes, it's a "pretend the eula doesnt read the way it is" discussion.

LOL.....

ohh gosh Car talk... ZzzzzzZzzzz

Well by the time I save the money for Carrara I think the sale will be off. Cause need to get the platinum to get the discount too. So I might try the one month for free in a little while and do it that way.

Most I know about cars is they use fuel, have engines, and wheels, etc..

I noticed the Cararathingy package has a one month trial, I might try it out when I have more time. Pref near the next sale

I know.. well hold them back till I do what I want with them first

Will still upload some just after seeing one of the presets for sale in Second life I kinda thought do I want to upload the filters first?

I just finished the modeling tools section of my tutorial DVD's. In other words, I am exactly where I thought I was about six months ago. It have been aggravating but this is far from the worst of my miscalculations.


The lightning stopped so I came back online. I see from the satellite that there is more lightning on the way so I had better get back offline.
Fortunately I can watch my tutorials on my pda.

Have a good one.

OMG I think my computer burped or something cause the filter I was working on got eaten, while I was tweaking it!... have to go back to another stage of the filter (Which luckily I do have) and put in some of the bits I can remember.. ick!

Well burped as in got an error message about low recourses re-opened FF to a message saying such and such filter is corrupted can not open, kinda thing.

Annoying thing was only reason I was playing in the filter, I realised that the base texture had changed a bit too much that it no longer resembled the fantasy metal 100%. Texture was out by about 5-15% I think..

well it ate the rust stage of the filter, just put that back in.. as to the new filter not started it yet.. decided to do the 'get one finished' before starting the next, plan. Cause I have a nice collection of unfinished filters already without increasing them

Excellent choice!!!

Ron should be along to post the untimate trump car.....Bugatti Veyron 16/4....

It sounds great! Where are the pics? What did you do with it? Did you ever race anyone with it? I love racing. I would race anyone in anything; go-carts, golf carts, motor cycles, anything.

I started feeling better and shelved the project in favor of graphic arts. I hope to find someone interested and give it to them.
