As exhibitions go, this one is a little different, Oriolus Oliva has an exhibition at the Cellar Gallery on the Verdigris sim of what they view as content theft of ….. pretty much their whole sim! There is another similar sim and by way of pointing out the glaring similarities Orilous has put out pictures exemplifying their content and what they view as copied content.
Modavia Fashion Week Too Sexy For Mesh
Modavia Fashion Week has been in full swing, the odd thing about this fashion week is that the region itself doesn’t support Mesh, at all. People who arrive with Mesh clothing or avatars will get an insight on how things look to people on viewers that don’t support Mesh, but it’s a tad disappointing that Mesh has been blocked in this fashion.
Modavia Fashion Week
Fifty of the best couture designers will present their new autumn collections over 8 days, kicking off with the LaGyo/LG Concept partnership on Sept 8 and culminating in a showcase of emerging talent and a preview of new fall designs from Paper Couture on September 15.

ORC Slays ARC
Nalates Urriah has an extremely interesting update from the Mesh user group meeting in which changes to prim equivalence on mesh and changes to Avatar Rendering Cost (ARC) are discussed. There’s also information about a funky new build panel with confusing looking information in it as part of the details of Object Rendering Cost, or ORC …. I’m not making this up!
There’s a picture on Nalates blog of the new build panel, which you can view here. I’m rather amused to see there’s a “What is all this?” link on that image because a hell of a lot of people are going to be wondering what the bloody hell it all is!
Basically this is all about trying to make things easier to understand, prim equivalence is confusing, Gwynneth Llewellyn recently blogged about how confusing it is and how unfair it seems, you can read that here. The comments are worth reading on that blog post too as people try and get their heads around everything.
SL Using Google Adsense? SL Profiles Go Wild!
This is the Saturday night update, which means I’m killing time before Match of The Day starts and I want to see how the hell the mighty Villa stole a 2-2 draw with Everton. Villa v Everton is the most played top flight football fixture in the history of English football, showing the greatness of both clubs … well we can both believe we’re still great! Anyway Second Life and Linden Lab, they have gone completely busy with work at the Lab and tonight I noticed on this here site an advert in the Google Adsense section for ….. Second Life! This isn’t to be confused with the static adverts I have here for Second Life, this one was in my adsense part and made a change from seeing Habbo or IMVU there. Pics or it didn’t happen hey, well here you go:
About bloody time I say! I almost did a jig of delight when I saw it. Then we have the issue of Linden Lab going social profile crazy with updates galore, so many I’m almost speechless, although before the guys at Linden Lab start chmapgne corks, I was only almost speechless!

Fashion Feed feed.me growing in popularity
I am only affiliated with SL Universe by participating in their forum and sending the odd snapshot to Snapzilla. Snapzilla has been around for a while and allows you to send pictures from within Second Life to their site, there are also features for sending them onto flickr too. Anyway I’m mentioning this because I’ll be talking about another SL Universe related service.
A while back someone called Tao Takashi had a website that ran blog feeds related to Second Life, it was a bloody useful resource as you’d just go to the feed and see blogs about Second Life, many of which I wasn’t familiar with or hadn’t bookmarked. This was also a much easier way of followng multiple blogs as they were all in one place, you’d end up at the actual blog if you wanted to read everything or comment but as a snapshot it was wonderful.
