I have made a throne that you can sit on, out of prims, so it won't disappear when you walk away. I think it's sort of elven. I have also made a scroll as a region teleporter for my grid. You have to edit it yourself, but You can put your different regions on the scroll, and when guests click the name they are teleported to that region instantly, as long as it is in the same grid.

It has been a while since I created a wedding set. Since it is May it has me thinking of weddings and flowers and thought it would be nice to create a pretty wedding set for this summer. Feuille Wedding Set has a wedding ring, engagement ring, and the pair linked. This has a resize script so you can get the correct size.

Just wanted to put a quick note of clarification for the group and visitors. I have received a few messages of people claiming to be STAFF of Amoa. This is the fact:
Glenn Xpletive and Robin Sission are the ONLY Staff members.
However The grid owners of Barefoot-dreamers Grid, can be contacted in the event of their absence. NO ONE ELSE WILL EVER BE STAFF. Glenn built the beach, terraforming, trees, waves, islands. Robin Sisson has made it the beautiful region it is. So please give a warm thank you to Robin for all of her decorating and amenities that have made Amoa such a great place.
If anyone else tries to claim they are staff, or if you need assistance, please contact Glenn, Robin, Huga or Gabe.

I was just asked how did I create glasses, this is a video I did while back https://youtu.be/iVPiH4ptMlw basically I use silhouettes then extract the curves, then extrude. This is using Rhino Software but it is the same in Blender, you would extract curves from an image then extrude them. Thank you for your interest!
It's always hard for me saying goodbye to a region, but especially this one, for which I had such unique visions and hopes. I pass this dream to a new Luna who will carry it through to realization.

The Subtle And The Not So Subtle
The fat pack for these jeans includes this pair with a very subtle and very lovely floral pattern. The off-shoulder sweater? Not so subtle. You get fat packs of all but one of the outfit items. And still unique as far as I know, you get a pre-set body alpha HUD.

The Secrets of DragonFyre:
DragonFyre castle has many many secrets, and since some people are not aware of all the secrets I thought I would share them here. Dragonfyre has many secret passages.
1) Behind the red couch between the deer heads in the entrance to the castle. Click the wall to find a set of stairs. Go down the stairs and follow the path to a trap door. Open this trap door, and follow the path to another trap door. Open the second trap door, and go down the stairs to the hidden wine cellar. In the corner of the wine cellar is a wine registry bookcase. Click the bookcase and a secret staircase appears. Go down the secret staircase to an iron door. Open the iron door and go down the hall to another bookcase on the right. Click this bookcase and it opens into the chef's office.
2) Behind the chef's office is the chef's bedroom. If you go into the chef's bedroom and click the wall paneling to the right, a hidden room is revealed full of magic.
3) In the rust room the bookcase leads to a small hidden room.
4) if you open the dungeon door just off the kitchen, click the floor to reveal a staircase which leads down to the dungeon. In the huge castle dungeon, there is a vampires room encased in stone.
The Secrets of DragonFyre: There are 2 caves on dragonfyre sim. One is hidden very well in the woods and has luminous blue water running down the sides. The other cave is a large cave beneath the 2nd bridge that you can reach by boat. There is a sign that rezzes boats in the lake.
Once you go into this cave under the bridge you find a dragon and a gold treasure. Just past the treasure, you will see a white dragon egg nestled in the rocks. Click the egg and a saddle appears. Sit on the saddle and a dragon npc rezzes. You may also let a friend ride the dragon with you. However it is not easy to fly dragons out of the cave. pgUp key and pgDown key control the inclination of the dragon, and arrow keys control the direction you travel. If you fly the dragon out of the cave and over the pond and fly up through the trees you can soar into the air with the other dragons flying around the castle.
There is a hidden church on the land not far from the tiny gazebo.

Mysteriously... The gate which worked fine last night, didn't work today. Also I found that all the prims and scripts had been changed. (Someone is either a super hacker or a voodoo witch doctor, and im not sure which...) Anyway after being visited by the jealous talentless people once again... I've repaired it to full working order. We will call this version 5. So... here we go...

I share the sentiment towards the people of Ukraine, I also became sad with the people of Iraq, or Libya, Yemen, Somalia or Pakistan. But I didn't see flags of those countries when the U.S. invaded them. It is curious to see how it is OCCUPATION when the US invades a country, but when another world power occupies a country it is called INVASION. We should put politics aside and think only about the suffering of those countries that are illegally occupied by others.
| | Caribia Zsun: All wars are illegal there is no right to any country to invade to another one and in my opinion we should be thinking humanity not taking sides nor thinking whats legal in wars. 4 years ago |

Behold, The Mermaid! Every Sideshow of yesteryear had the Fiji Mermaid as part of their show. Yours will too! I always loved Mermaids, but really never thought of them as being beautiful maids with long flowing hair. In my mind, well, they're a little fishy. They have the famous tail of course, but they also have gills, fisheyes, sharp teeth, dark hair with glistening skin of blue or green. A smaller, toned upper body. She's really quite lovely though and will be given a second look for sure. The set comes with The Mermaid Animesh, her vintage water tank and makeshift banner. It also comes with a bubbling water sound either looped or on collision, your choice.

NEW and IMPROVED: While updating older outfits I discovered the hair fatpack was missing from this one. (There are bad hair days, but even worse are no hair days!) I did add an extra necklace. However, "Those are wonderful necklaces you are wearing and I'm totally not noticing you do not have hair" said no one ever. So, this outfit now includes hair. If you see any bald person wearing this dress, please send them straight away to the oh HELLO shop to get that fixed.

Wishing you all the blessings of that first Christmas now and throughout the coming year! Merry Christmas to you and yours!
NEW OUTFITS FOR OLD. This is not a new outfit, exactly. When I first assembled it a couple of years ago, it seems I left out one of the dresses in the fat-pack. It's now in the box. Yippie, I guess. This is one reason I'm revisiting older outfits - to fix mistakes and/or refresh the look with new items. The only thing refreshed here is my memory. How could have I forgotten I had these lovely Curator Rose EarthStones Eye Glasses? For me, they are the highlight of this outfit. Come get it, if only for them.
Oh HELLO.
Inspired by Fashionista. Available to all.
