On behalf of the entire New Life Italy team, we want to say thank you.
Thank you to everyone who, over the past year, chose to support us and believe in us.
Thank you to the many friends we have met along the way, people we now proudly call FRIENDS, because you are not just supporters, you are part of our journey.
Thank you to those who shared kind words, encouragement, and positivity with us.
And thank you as well to those who shared less positive feedback: constructive criticism has helped us grow, improve, and become better. Even through challenges, you pushed us to evolve and move forward.
A special thank you goes to all of you who are always present at every event we organize, showing us your support and appreciation. You value us not only for what we create and organize, but also for who we are as people and that means everything to us.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you all.
We wish you a peaceful and joyful Christmas, filled with love, happiness, and serenity.
A warm hug from me, from Adry, and from the entire New Life Italy staff 🤍

This is for anyone who hasn't seen this beautiful video by Kimm Starr of the last set of Luna Lunaria's Memorial. Thank you, Kimm, for making such a lovely tribute to our dear friend. Have your Kleenex handy.
Also, we are raising funds to name a star for Luna, so when we look up at the night sky, perhaps we will get a glimpse of Luna dancing in the shimmer between the stars. Thank you, everyone, for donating and coming together as a community. I love you all!

Now at 221 PBR materials. Today's dump includes building facades for day and night use with the emissions layer. You can change the light colors base upon the tint color and the intensity with the glow adjustment. So much more to bring in, but running out of room at the shop! What is your favorite PBR material so far? Mine are the melted wax and the dunes in today's drop.

Our dear Luna Lunaria has passed. Rather than only mourn her, which we all do in our own ways, let us band together and show Luna's real life family...just how much she meant to us.

To some, perhaps Luna was a character from one of her rl human creator's stories. To most of us, she was much, much more. It is with a heavy heart that I have shouldered the responsibility as one of her many friends, to setup a GoFundMe for an idea i had: to name an actual star (or multiple stars different names from her stories or rl family), depending on how well this goes. If you like this idea, please find it in your heart to contribute to a worthy cause! https://gofund.me/60f7d925d

Not one thin penny will go to anything not Luna related, with the main goal being at least an "ultimate" star package from the international star registry. All pertinent information is listed in the interest of transparency. If we exceed the $200 goal, additional items or a bigger package may be purchased. I will be working with Lone Wolf on this, and any real life items to be mailed, will be sent discreetly and privately to Luna's real life family, pending their approval. For now, let's just get this ball rolling and see how much this OpenSim community loves and embraces her. She inspired us and gave us so much. Let us give back. Seriously, if you can spare only a buck, 1 dollar of your native currency, 25 cents, whatever it may be, it all comes from the heart. You are not required for your real name or any info to be publicly disclosed if you donate, so keep that in mind, friends. Any questions please contact Leonitas Lionheart or Remmy Ravenhurst of Homelandz Grid, Star Ravenhurst of Tenth Dimension Grid, or Lone Wolf of Wolf Territories grid.

All Holiday trees and decorations at Lunaria Emporium are now free and full perm for the season. All have been reworked and many have PBR textures added. I have trees, tree skirts, topiaries, wreaths, garlands, a snow couple, poinsettias, etc; some are prim and some are mesh. These are unique items available nowhere else in Opensim.

To find them, click the Holidays sign on the right as you enter the lobby.

Still about the OpenSIM ONLINE Weather System V4 already available for FREE and FULLPERM at WEATHER SECTOR at FLORA SIM - I`ve built a compact Weather Display for my tenants in my SIM NORGE. They all liked it so much so I decided to offer it here as well.
V4 vendor updated with it.,
Enjoy :)

Well, I am here to chew bubblegum and irritate the anti-AI troglodytes. And I am all out of bubblegum.

Recently, I saw someone post how people who use AI to make images are no talent morons. Fair enough. I accept that title. Mainly because...I dgaf what you think of me. However, I am always challenging this hot take.

I recently purchased Meshy to try to learn to make mesh. Yesterday, I tackled it in earnest. I had several AI apps create some images - Night Cafe, MidJourney, CoPilot, Designer. Part of a portal series I have worked on.

I asked CoPilot to alpha some of these for me. I only recently discovered it will do that. I have been doing it myself. Honestly, 90% of the time, CoPilot does a better job. I have just had to learn to talk to it.

I took one of these images and pulled it into Meshy. It is an AI image going into an AI mesh app. Meshy created a model of my portal. I pulled it down as a Blender compatible file and imported into Blender. I exported as collada.

It was a learning process. In the end, I took my original image, brightened and sharpened it, before creating the model. After I put it into blender, I got the texture map and brightened and sharpened that one, then put on that texture after upload. Attached is the portal/elemental gate I ended up with.

I used an AI image and uploaded into an AI app to do most of the editing. I changed the shading, vibrance, and sharpness in Corel. I used Blender to import /export.

I guess I am a no talent moron, not an artist. ;)

My point is: The anti-AI stance is gatekeeping of the highest form. It's absurd. Photography wasn't considered art until it was. Digital art was the same.

I really don't care if you ever consider what I do as art. Feel free not to look. And the gatekeeper is what keeps people from being creators more than anything else.

Many many thanks to Jimmy Olsen and Lavia Lavine for your coaching, patience, and teaching. Many thanks to Contessa LaCombe for her coaching and knowledge regarding texturing mesh. Many thanks to Lone Wolf for making that video that took away much of the fear of trying for me. It takes a community. Many thanks to everyone who encourages me to keep trying, failing, and trying again.

Quick (couple of) question to OS Community:
- Do many of you still use (and prefer) Gianni?
- Do many of you use perky versions of bodies?
Thinking in terms of effort (because there are ENDLESS bodies with add-ons now) and that's it's extremely hard to cater for everyone in terms of clothing.
Thinking about whether is worth

Greetings OSW,

Exotic Realities (a new adult RP grid, not officially opened yet, coming early in 2025) is pleased to announce that we are releasing a modified and upgraded version of the reborn and waifu bodies, complete with lots of bug fixes, a dedicated Waifu version with complete functionality, and both default and custom material capabilities. We have given some of our friends the ability to distribute this for us at their stores. You can find it at the two locations below!

Loc 1 > hop://playground.darkheartsos.com:8002/Boutiques NW/833/813/35
Loc 2 > hop://playground.darkheartsos.com:8002/Boutiques NE/385/105/25

By popular demand, I'm now adding some add-ons for the Reborn 3.0 body I posted a few days ago, they include the Juice Rolls, Soft Arms, and Soft Thighs all scripted to auto-hide and receive materials changes from the body! Since my grid is still being developed, even though my store region is up, my new friends at Sciatti Shops, has offered to put them out for everyone to grab, I thank them very much! You can get them here > https://imgur.com/e5ByT58 > hop://sciattisigrid.it:8002/SciattiShopClothes/14/176/23

Sadly... It seems there's a loss of interest among the general population for all things metaverse... People are moving on to other games, or not playing games at all any more, and taking on additional real life work to offset the crazy inflation happening around the world... I've noticed huge down turns in the numbers of people getting into virtual worlds lately. Can't say I blame 'em... All the name calling, in fighting, back biting, hate spewing, trolling, and worse going around.
But it is what it is... What is it? You ask... Well, it's such a huge reduction in numbers that only a small percentage of "hard-core" virtual lifers remain... It's sad... It's unfortunate... We have seen many grids recently shutting their doors and I fear we will see many more admins clicking the red power off button in the future. Anyway to all those leaving, I bid you safe travels, and a happy life. Remember us few lone die-hard souls forever permafrosted into the fabric of the metaverse...

A stunning render of Fantasy Land, a quaint and whimsical village of mushroom houses. The scene features adorable, colorful houses with mushroom caps, each with unique architectural details. An inviting pathway winds through the village, leading to a cozy-looking central gathering spot. The soft, glowing sunlight creates a warm atmosphere, and the surrounding forest is filled with vibrant flora and fauna.

Möge die Weihnachtszeit euch eine Pause des Alltags schenken und euch Zeit geben, die wirklich wichtigen Dinge zu schätzen. Inmitten der Hektik des Lebens ist es diese Zeit des Jahres, die uns daran erinnert, was wirklich zählt: Familie, Freunde und die Liebe, die wir teilen. Frohe Weihnachten allen !!!

THE LOVE LOCK BRIDGE
This corner is inspired by the Parisian tradition of "The Lock Bridge", by which for many generations thousands of lovers leave their locks on a bridge over the Seine and throw the keys into the river, manifesting with this gesture that their love is eternal. Putting locks is illegal nowadays in RL, but in iEchoes you still can put yours.
Come request it today and let's fill Opensim with love.

As many of you wonderful peeps out there know Diva, who created this region, sadly passed away in December 2020. We have kept the region live by request from her family and from the many users who frequently visit this region. We continue to update the region and have done a little cleanup as our wonderful Diva passed in the middle of part of the build. Dynamic Worldz will continue to sponsor this region as so many of you find it so valuable.

Priscilla paid me a visit. She couldn't do anything to my sim... at all... But I hit her with a bolt of lightning seen here in this video, also with an elven attack, and orbiters (lol), followers, and a clouder. heheheh Double click the picture for a bigger view of priscilla hanging helplessly in the air, being jerked around by magic. hahahaha. She finally got mad and ran off... :)

Uhmmm I made a thing that detects greifers in sandboxes and kicks and bans them. Check this out. It's also a 3d radar, and shows people flying around and moving around on the sim. Get yours at cyberdatastorm.com:8002:FreeMagic

Charge for your own work, but take everything from others for free !? Steal all CMT right and left and pass on NO mod, NO copy, NO trance. Those are the ones that should be banned from OS!

Best Regards
Rakis Heron
