Of all the venues I've made, this is the one I see most often in photos from around the hypergrid. It's also my oldest venue, which means it is far overdue for a rebuild with better mesh and PBR. There is an overhaul of all the venues planned for the near future. Currently I'm preparing for an upcoming exhibition I'm excited to be part of, after that I'll have to work the venues in between game development, writing, and other projects some of you have been asking for. We'll get there.

It took a little figuring out to get this little cutie uploaded from blender but I figured it out after getting an error message about the physics. I just had to change the physics and it MOOved right in and she's Udderly Adorable. I added some flowers and a fencepost and created a cute little scene for in a yard or close to a barn or just anywhere you'd like to put her, she won't created a "beef" about it. She's full perm and free and you can find her in the Garden Center next to Flower Power. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

Hi, here's a litter box i made. two versions - one you can rez and sit on works better with AO etc. but the other is portable you can wear it and when you sit on the ground it appears. (hint: look for the "sit on ground" toolbar icon for the bottom of Firestorm)

AO should be off for the weable, but doesn't have to be, depends on your AO sit position. The portable is good for emergencies when you're out at the club they don't have a litter box nearby. .

ATHENA – 6 Looks, die sitzen

🟦 Look 1: Türkis & Schwarz Crop-Top mit klarer Linie, schwarze Hose, Boots. Direkt, kantig, einsatzbereit.

🟫 Look 2: Camo & Cut Camouflage unten, Bandeau oben. Ein Outfit wie ein Seitenwechsel – nicht laut, aber deutlich.

🖤 Look 3: Straps & Boots Beige und Schwarz, viel Haut, wenig Zweifel. Wer das trägt, braucht keine Erklärung.

🔵 Look 4: Blau & Weinrot Zweiteiler mit Punch. Die Farben sprechen für sich – und sagen mehr als jeder Slogan.

🟣 Look 5: Hoodie & Shorts Lässig, aber nicht beliebig. Der Text hinten ist kein Deko – er meint’s ernst.

🟨 Look 6: Jogger in Gelb Jacke und Hose, kein Schnickschnack dafür mit mächtig Speed.

Jetzt vorbeischauen bei BK-Mode Shopping-Park.

Please forgive my laziness in creating a photo collage for this Monday, but 16 pictures are too many lol ♥

So once again, there I was, playing around in Meshy AI, and Blender and I finally figured out how to transfer the file with it's texture and get Blender to put it together then upload it with the textures included and POOF, a beautifully rendered, textured bust of my art work in the form of the Bust of King David. This sculpture along with the painting in the background and the Star of David wall or door décor, are available in The Plaza here at the mall. They are full perm and free for you. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

All you professional and hobby photographers. Shutter Up at TTG is now open. Unique designed backdrops – a whole sim dedicated to creating background themes.
Pose balls along with using your own Pose Hud to capture themes from around the world.
Promoting the newly opened Photographer's grid @ Twiztid Timez Grid. Owned and operated by Abbey Normal and Faith Frumond

An entire sim has been dedicated to creating background themes.

This is not your normal 'backdrop' boxes placed on a sim.
Many different themes are available.

Just a few themes to mention below:
A Burlesque Show where you can dance Burlesque with the NPCs dressed in colourful attire.

Asian themes, Magical Alice in Wonderland, Cafe's - join NPCs for cake and coffee.

Beaches and fishing. Horse riding - Forrest walks, hidden magical wonderland by tranquil creek.

Quirky dining in a backdrop set within a forest where an old bus converted to a home with overflowing creepers.

Visit the slums - the homeless - the forgotten ones within society. Take part in the boxing ring to knock out those responsible for the state of the world.

Some of the local NPC's are happy to have their photos taken with you.

Terrace homes with a fruit market - Mr Fruitier is happy to share his apples with you.

There is so much more to see and explore.

🎁 Heads up – Gift Alert!

Hey lovely group members, I’ve put together a little present for you – just because you’re awesome (and maybe because my inventory was starting to look like a digital attic 😅).

You’ll find the gift right next to the visitor board – it’s hard to miss unless your graphics settings are set to “potato.” Just give it a click and enjoy!

Important: 👉 To receive the gift, you need to have the group activated (make sure it’s set as your active group in the viewer). 👉 The gift is exclusive to group members and includes several goodies – don’t miss out!

If the box ignores you, don’t take it personally – it’s probably just sulking because your group isn’t active. Or it’s having a pixel mood swing. You know how it is.

Enjoy the gift, and thanks for being part of this wonderfully quirky, creative, pixel-loving community! 💖

I guess I'm going a little crazy with Meshy AI and Blender, but I just can't seem to help myself. As part of the book I'm writing, one of the species included are Angelic like flying Lions that I call Lamassu. So I put the information in Meshy and it gave me a really cool winged lion which I was able to convert to a collada file in Blender and upload as a mesh build and it included the textures. How cool is that? Anyway you can find him at the Garden Center here at the mall, free and full perm! Blessings and much love, Lavia
