Close to both Tokyo and Mount Fuji the small town of Hakone holds something of a revelation. However, unless you are from Japan, you may well not have heard of it. The town plays host to a large open air museum where the works of many famous artists are held - outdoors. It balances art and nature in harmony. The artworks, combined with the beautiful views of the surrounding mountains give the visitor an unforgettable experience. Now recreated in OpenSim for all those missing travelling in Real Life.

Looking for something new and unique to do? Come to Phantom Rose Grid's Nature Region and do some rock climbing! Lannorra has hand made all the rock climbing poses and set up a dual course near Olympia Falls. The side by side climbs let you race a friend to the top! The view once you get there is spectacular and you can follow the stairs up to the free hang glider, to float your way back down. Upon landing at Phantom Rose Nature Region, make sure you get a trail map pamphlet and region guide from the kiosk. Follow the yellow trail thru the campground and pick up the Lake trail going past the falls on your right. The rock climbing area is on the side of the mountain. Take some pictures of your climb and drop on Lannorra Sion, and she will post one to the Champion board! You can hop to PR Nature region via the Opensimworld beacon, or go via the viewer map using url: http://PhantomRose.Outworldz.net:8002 and use the IDP teleporter from the welcome area.

A famous but humble man once said, "“When I get dressed, I put my pants on one leg at a time like everyone else." Here at oh HELLO we put our pants on both legs and butt all at once! Amazing but true.

Here is a new outfit at oh HELLO with a pair of all-at-once putter-onner pants and a matching top. The detaling on these is perfectly matched by an exquisite white-silver scarf/necklace and the pair of flats. I always add the hair last when assembling an outfit, and this hair just thrilled me with how right it looks. You will be thrilled that you can personalize your look with the fat-packs in the vendor.

oh HELLO. Outfits with Options and our patented all-at-once putter-onner pants.

Hair History Is Being Made Today at oh HELLO
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word "redhead" has been in use since at least 1510. According to me, my AV has been a redhead not once since at least 1510 -- until today. You can get an outfit at oh HELLO that commemorates this historic day, and if you like, you can use the hair HUD to make your hair a historic color for yourself.

Oh HELLO - Outfits with Options &, every 500 years, historic hair.

My apologies for the repost, I was trying to edit the post not delete it :( I got click happy.

Fairy of the Glen is available in the fantasy section of the shop. They are animesh with 5 styles to choose from.

Scripts are thanks to Arcadia Shop. Directions on activation are included in the box

The fairies float and fly around fluttering their wings. The animations are in a different order for each fairy in order to avoid synching if you put out more than one.

They add a little action wherever they are.

Have a great day!

Are you searching for love but can't find it? Do you long for someone to hold and enjoy a passionate romance with? I've taken satyr aeon's opensim npc framework and stuffed it in a genie jar just for you. What? in english. I've made a genie jar you touch, and select men or women. There are about 10 in the genie jar, and they are very very beautiful. You can command them to do anything you wish, as long as you have the ability to rez npc's, and you can allow scripts and object entry. Example: Cindy follow me, and cindy will follow you until you say Cindy stop. Cindy use ~ball0 and Cindy will use whatever bed, chair, or other that you can imagine. What's more is you can use it with her. For the ladies, the men do the same things. There are many commands, please feel free to contact me for a list. You can say Cindy seen all and she will list all the people she has seen on your sim. Cindy light and cindy will turn on a light for you. Cindy movetovr and cindy moves to that location. Cindy flywith me. Cindy come. and Cindy will come to you anywhere in the sim (as long as you don't have teleport routing set)(( you may also have to region shout in order to be heard). You can also control the men's parts. Contact me for the list of commands. The possibilities are endless... Come to Free Magic and get your impossibly perfect love today. Your better half is waiting...

Well, since I made the "Enchanted" section at the shop, I feel like I need to put new things in it. This always happens, I end up on a theme for a while (cough, cough polar bears).

So, I give you Magical Mushrooms (no, not those kind of mushrooms, that's another theme).

These Fungi have the power to be tree size and come in several variations including versions with 2 spore color choices.
All the textures are in the box for those who like to customize :).

Have a magical day!

I don't usually support mesh bodies that have got nothing to do with Ruth2 or Roth2. But I've come across an improvement trick for Athena 6 with BoM that nobody seems to know.

The major problem is that the skin on Athena 6's limbs may look weird under certain viewer settings, much like a lighting bug. Some skin areas look brighter or darker than they should.

A minor problem is that alpha masks don't work on Athena 6 although they technically should with BoM.

The reason is because Athena 6 has a chaotic hodge-podge of alpha settings all over it. Parts are set to alpha masking, more parts are set to alpha blending (it's them which may look weird to you or to others), most have alpha off (this is why alpha masks don't work on Athena 6 out of the box).

The solution:

Step 1: Edit your Athena 6 body. All of it, not just any piece. Select it in your inventory while wearing it.

Step 2: Go to the Texture tab.

Step 3: Set the alpha mode to alpha masking.

Now the different shades of skin colour are gone, but your hands and feet may turn partially white. Don't panic, this is supposed to happen and will be fixed in the next steps.

Step 4: Set the mask cutoff to 128. If it is already 128, set it to 127 and back to 128.

The white should disappear, and your body should look normal again. Or better than what you saw previously.

Step 5: Take the body off and put it back on to save the new settings.

Also, you can now wear alpha masks like you can on the system body which might save you from the hassles that come with the alpha cuts on the HUD, and which you can save with outfits. The only limitation is that the alpha masks still don't work on fingernails and toenails.

Should alpha masks stop wearing, just edit the body and set the mask cutoff to 127 and back to 128.

The same method should work on Adonis 4 if you want to use alpha masks with BoM.

Oh, and before anyone tries this on Ruth2 v4 or Roth2 v2: You don't have to, at least not with the "BoM" bodies and Ruth2 v4 "Business". They've got alpha mode controls on the HUD. The "0.8.2.1" versions, on the other hand, are de-scripted and have no HUD, so they require this trick, too, if alpha masks don't work.

Happy Birthday Jesus. It's what CHRISTmas was always actually about. The birth of Christ. "fact" Merry Christmas everyone from me, myself, and I. lol :D Prayers, good karma, love, hugs, and high 5's everyone. :)

Then the loud sound did seem to fade. Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase (648 kHz). That weren't no DJ, that was hazy cosmic jive.

The Radio Caroline pirate ship was probably one of the best-known “unofficial” radio stations in Britain. By sticking to off-coast locations, the boat ensured that it could remain outside of the legal reach of the British authorities. Without any broadcasting laws to hold them back, the DJs on boats like Radio Caroline gave their listeners the raw, authentic music and entertainment they were looking for. These rock-and-roll pirates changed radio forever.

Well, it's been a while since I had a new release. I've been RL busy, busy and getting the garden ready for winter.
I know it's a little early for this one but before we know it the holidays will be upon us! I've put out pointsettias with and without pots in the Xmas section of the shop. They come in Red, Pink and White. Textures and all variations are included in the box.

The first snow, before the leaves fall...snowy aspen. It is free/full perms so that you can take to Blender and play with it. I created it last year and if I remember correctly I decimated it but I could be wrong...land impact 3 This is in the Monentes Jewelry foyer continuum.outworldz.net:8002:Monentes Jewelry I created the tree in Blender then I used the "Real Snow" addon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCjOa_cuhPY it is a fun tool!

I wanted to say how delighted we are at how quickly Amoa has grown in popularity. Everyday, I and my partner Robin, receive compliments and comments regarding how much people enjoy Amoa. It has been our goal to create such a place for most people, in which we try to provide a little of everything for everyone.

But none of this would be possible without Barefoot Dreamers and it's staff Huga, Gabe and Luna. All 3 of which are the nicest, kindest and helpful people you could ever meet. We are honored to be a part of their grid and glad we are contributing such a wonderful place for all. So please reach out and thank Huga Bug for being the best and kindest grid owner to date. While you are at it, PLEASE check out BarefootDreamers grid and explore. You will find, most likely, what you seek and maybe more.

It was bound to happen sooner or later but I ended up making a weed.
Fluffy dandelions are out by the landing zone. They have several versions and particle fluff (wind enabled of course haha). The pieces are included separate so you can have with or without the floaty fluff and leaves etc.

not sure if anyone will know what this is just by looking at this pic. Or if anyone else will Nerd Out like I did when I found it in my inventory. HOWEVER! Howls Moving Castle *in its original box Now in Vintique Antiques on Steamland.

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.
