Question I often get asked is, "Why are some OARS exclusive for Dreamgridders only, I thought this was a free and opensource platform with sharing." Yes it is however, the reason some OARs are exclusive to DreamGrid users is that they contain purchased items with licenses that must be respected. **Or the Creators of these OARS only offered them to Dreamgridders it is their license to share with us.** By limiting the distribution of these OARs to the DreamGrid platform, we ensure that we are honoring those licensing agreements.

Being a solo-sapien sapiosexual I find the spark of attraction in the light of intellect, where minds meet and ignite a connection that transcends the physical and delves into the profound beauty of thought.

I have been finding beautiful necklaces at Sketchfab! Whenever I find one that I think you will enjoy I will add to my collection! I will add the note indicating such so that you can determine which is Sketchfab! continuum.outworldz.net:8002:Monentes Jewelry
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. You will find it in the Wedding section of the Monentes Jewelry Store. continuum.outworldz.net:8002:Monentes Jewelry

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!

I was asked how did I create the Sunflower. I use Photoshop 3d. I wrote this article as to how it is accomplished https://www.hypergridbusiness.com/2020/05/how-to-create-3d... The shells are fun to create too!

Dabici132: thanks Marianna. Photoshop 3d was a great tool for builders. Unfortunatly, Adobe does not support it anymore. I use the cloud service of adobe and recent version are not even able to open old files.... 3 years ago
I added new necklaces to the store this morning. Will be adding more new jewelry this week as time allows. I noticed on my sunflower necklace the back of the flower looks invisible, I apologize for that I tried several methods to get it to appear solid and none worked. Like, Solidify Modifier and also I flipped normals. This is a new technique I tried using an image, I will keep working at it to make it solid and release an updated version! Please find new necklaces in the foyer. continuum.outworldz.net:8002:Monentes Jewelry

Those of you with Blender should add the Sketchfab addon. It saves steps from hopping from one website to Blender. With the addon is adding a sketchfab library to your Blender desktop. I have been using it to import high heels for my mesh avatars. It has been fun!

How many of you have wanted to install Marvelous Designer only to find how expensive it is? Me too, I had it at one time and loved it. I made a skirt that I still have and wanted to try creating clothing again so researched and found a great "Garment Tool" addon for blender it is only 40 USD and works just like Marvelous Designer! I am learning it now so wish me luck lol this is where to purchase it! https://bartoszstyperek.gumroad.com/l/GarmentTool

Monentes Jewelry created exclusively by me, Marianna Monentes. I add new pieces each week, thank you for all your support. Many ask wth are you not selling in Second Life, I did sell there for two years, was nominated for an Avi Choice award, once you try opensim though, it is home. It feels like country club living at its finest you cannot put a price on that. The opensim community deserves nice things too from an original creator. Not all SL creators were afraid to try opensim. Jewelry is free/full perms. https://avichoiceawards.com/about/history-of-the-acas/2015...

Reyn and I are excited to bring to you Rigged avatar store! We will be designing bento rigged mesh avatars a bit different than what you might be familiar with. These avatars are designed to work with the Y engine scripts. Clothing is included that can be worn simply by typing into local chat! No more searching through inventory for that favorite blouse! You simply add the textures to the avatar contents and you are set! We have included outfits to get you started! The alphas apply the same fashion just by typing into chat and it applies to the body!
We have a few just for fun and RP and a few that can be worn every day. I can create alphas to work with most clothes. The skin can be changed to your skin if you have the textures. If you know Photoshop or Gimp you can create your very own textures unique to just "you".

A huge thank you to Reyn Softly for creating our store, and a special hug and big thanks to our friend Fred Beckhusen who helped to make all this possible, thank you!
I will be creating new clothes for these avatars as time allows~

Monentes Jewelry is Exclusive Jewelry created solely by Marianna Monentes, some have wondered why it is not sold in SL why is it here in OS? Monentes Jewelry started out in SL and had a store for two years, friends asked me to create jewelry at GCG for a Christmas Party then asked me to open a store there. In Opensim I never charged much for the jewelry, the love of creating and gifting to friends gave me more pleasure. I continue to create exclusive jewelry for OS, I continue to give to friends. I find more pleasure here than in SL, thank you for your inspiration.

Many have asked me to open my store at GCG again. I was so busy setting up my own little world I apologize for being so selfish lol but it takes lots of work and focus! Roddie asked if I would like to open again at GCG and this time I said ok :) I will be working on the store there getting it current, and adding pieces exclusive to the GCG residents like I used to do, I miss that part. Having your own grid is nice but I missed my friends too. When at GCG just search your map for Monentes!

My Reviews

Le Beau Retrouve

Nestled within the luminous halls of a meticulously crafted building, the latest art installation honoring OpenSim artists is nothing short of breathtaking. As you step into the space, the first thing that strikes you is the architectural elegance—the high, sweeping windows allow natural light to pour in, casting a gentle glow that dances across the artworks on display. Each piece is thoughtful...

Grid Tumbler

Experience the thrill of riding dynamic waves in OpenSim's newest surf hotspot, Grid Tumbler, complete with lifelike water physics and breathtaking views. Where the perfect waves and the owner's beautiful surf spirit create an unparalleled virtual surfing haven. Thank you, Lilly and everyone who brought this magic!

iknimaya

Thank you Sharann, it was in my region settings you should be okay to teleport in now.

Outworldz Yo Franki

If you have free time, you need to check out Yo Franki! I am so uncoordinated and fell each time I tried to jump, this is a super fun game! It is a test of your virtual skills and super fun! Fred recreated this from Blender Institute, an open-source game. Make sure to bring a friend or two!

RRD Fashion Exclusives

What I love about Triz is her clothing is consistently well-created with beautiful textures too. Thank you Triz for all the work you put into your clothing-I love the styles too.

Kaneville Farm

It is always such a wonderful feeling to be welcomed into a new place by warm and friendly people. It can make a huge difference in how you feel about the place, and it can make a huge impact on your experience. I will be returning soon.

Stella Polaris

When you step into Stella Polaris, Magical Dreams region you will feel as if you floated into a fairytale dream.  Soft pastels, shimmering lights, and sun rays - this is magical.  One must simply ​experience the dreamlike estate to really capture what Bink Draconia has captured. ​

The Art Factory

Thought provoking gallery. Viewing the art pieces gives you pause and a chance to reflect on thoughts we rarely explore. I love this gallery. I love how it is presented, very nice work.
