I have scripted an absolutely gorgeous vendor board. I've left it in my sandbox, where you can take a copy, right in the center. It's very low cpu usage. It works perfectly. You must put at least 6 items in it. You also put the pictures in it. Name the pictures the same thing as the items, but put a period in front of the picture texture name. That's all there is to it. It's very smooth, sleek, and sharp. Definitely the way to modernize a lot of these old dated vendors you see in so many malls these days. :)

For some, it seems to be sometime tougher to be kind behind pixels. Our values and standards should not change, just because there isn't an immediate and apparent accountability to what we do or say. Be kind.

I just caught up with the craziness about Lone stealing a floor from Marianna. Looks like she saw my post yesterday about our first monthly social with a picture of my Lotus Club on Luxor. it has a big circular dance floor with a blue arcane texture. I guess she assumed Lone stole that idea the day before yesterday's event and added to his Social region (which doesn't exist). That picture was from my Gala 6 months ago at the Lotus Club and which I built on Luxor a year ago. I have that same exact texture on one of my hypergates at Luxor. I have used that texture for years. I love arcane textures, especially on floors and ceilings - I have them on a floor in Castle Ceridwen and in my main store in the Magic and Mysteries room.

I'm banned but you're not!

If you don't ever see me in your favourite opensim grid, most likely it’s because I'm banned.

My grid has no such bans though, so do feel free to visit anytime and help yourself to my free, unique and original creations, if you want!

Hallo ihr Lieben,
das Jahr ist fast zu Ende. Und wieder haben wir die Hälfte aller Vorsätze vom letzten Silvester nicht eingehalten. Ein guter Vorsatz wäre, dass wird das Ende des Jahres ordentlich feiern. Daher steigt im Soul-Grid eine Silvesterparty. Um 20 Uhr geht es los .
Wir freuen uns auf euch

A 100% legal, non copybotted , creator made mesh head. Boxed as an avatar base...shape, skin, eyes, head, courtesy Ruth RC3 made BOM. The skins I used a template for in part, according to the creator's license it cannot be transfer-sorry about that. You can of course use any skin or shape you want. Responds to bento animations such as smiling and blinking. No mesh eyes or AO included.
hop://hg.osgrid.org:80/Mythos/487/170/27
These heads I made from 2019 to 2021- I put a couple up an SL. They were intended as a low ARC, "Wear and go" solution without huds and scripts. I made them first for my partner who just HATES most huds. I sold them for about 400L each. People liked them but I got a lot of bizarre comments like "yeah it's really beautiful and good but I have to stay loyal to Catwa even though I like them a lot"... since opensim people seem more capable of not letting brand loyalty totally dictate their interests, they are better fitted here.

Don't sell, don't tell people you made the mesh, don't put it on SL . Please don't god mod the skin, I legitimately cannot give it transfer, if you need it for your alts bring them all in or message me and I'll just give it to you.

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!

It was bound to happen sooner or later but I ended up making a weed.

There is an outlying population in Syria, Lebanon, southern Turkey, Palestine, Jordan, and Israel."

The first time ever in open sim, a magazine dedicated to Hentai in all its glory. This magazine will have you all racing to the store to get many copies. Hehehehehehehe!

After hearing of the sad news that Gertie Bumbtious left us on June 5th, we, Niki Stark (ex-wife of Gertie) and I decided to make a tribute edition of Stark! with some nice photos of Gertie. We will miss Gertie very much with her happy, positive manner and her legendary music sets!

Rest in peace, Gertie!

✨ BK-Mode – Wo Schmuck zur Kunst wird

In der Welt von BK-Mode verschmelzen Eleganz und Ausdruck zu einem sinnlichen Erlebnis. Jedes Schmuckstück erzählt seine eigene Geschichte – von der Tiefe des königlichen Blaus über die Lebendigkeit des Smaragds bis hin zum funkelnden Spiel der Farben, das die Persönlichkeit seiner Trägerin unterstreicht.

Ob zarte Halsketten, kraftvolle Armbänder oder verführerische Details – BK-Mode ist mehr als Schmuck. Es ist ein Ausdruck von Selbstbewusstsein, Leidenschaft und unverwechselbarer Schönheit.

BK-Mode – Trage, was dich einzigartig macht.

@FerdFrederix gave me a personal tour of Cinderella's Anniversary Castle, a beautiful creation he built together with Debbie Edwards. As we walked through the castle, Ferd shared the story behind its design, pointing out the incredible details and the many treasures Debbie discovered and contributed along the way. You could hear the pride, joy, and love they both poured into this project.

Then came the surprise.

Ferd placed the entire castle on my grid and told me to enjoy it as much as they do. I was completely overwhelmed by such a generous gift. Over the years, I've often thought of Ferd as a father figure, and receiving this on Father's Day made the occasion especially meaningful. Of course, true to Ferd's nature, he was the one giving the gift.

The castle is now open for everyone to visit and enjoy.

If you've ever wondered what makes Debbie Edwards and Ferd Frederix so special within our community, look no further than this castle. Their creativity, generosity, kindness, and willingness to share what they build with others continue to enrich countless virtual worlds and the people who inhabit them.

Thank you, Ferd. Thank you, Debbie. Your gift will be treasured, and I am honored to share it with the public so others can experience the magic you created.

I have done as much as I can do with the shop until I can get a new computer. This shop has themed sections in a maze I created with an old farm house built by Jamie Wright. It lines up perfectly in multiples and there are many rooms to find treasures. Many are still empty and if anyone would like to have some space for their original content, message me here and we can make it happen.
You will find themes of Ravens, Dragons, Egyptian, Bohemian, Gothic, etc. This is all made mostly with Meshy, of various quality. I also used a couple of other AI mesh platforms. A lot of the furniture has a sit box in them, but with my old lap top I have to use atm. I cant keep adding the animations and some things, like beds, I have to animate from scratch, and can't do it until I have a better rig, but it is all full perm, so if it has no animations, feel free to do it yourself. Have fun shopping! If you like my content, please consider leaving a review here. The shop is above Star Ravenhurst Designs, so it is all under the same umbrella. Thanks for having a look!

It is also on the teleporter at the landing across the grid if you get lost.

2026: Learn to Create—Because Ideas Deserve to Exist

This piece began as a drawing. Lines on a screen. Nothing fancy—until those lines were extruded, shaped, and turned into something real. That moment never gets old.

I create jewelry by turning drawings into dimensional forms, and I share the how through tutorials because creation shouldn’t be a mystery reserved for a few. If you can imagine it, you can learn to build it.

My journey started in OpenSim, creating virtual jewelry people could wear in-world before ever buying it in real life. That experiment turned into something bigger: a virtual jewelry store that’s open 24/7, showcasing years of designs, iterations, failures, breakthroughs, and finished pieces. It’s a living archive of creative growth.

Here’s the truth:
There is nothing quite like seeing an idea move from your mind, to a sketch, to a finished object you can hold—or wear. That spark when it finally clicks? That’s the reward.

So for 2026, my message to the community is simple:

Learn something new

Make something with your hands (digital or physical—both count)

Share what you learn

Inspire the next creator behind you

You don’t need permission to create. You just need curiosity and the willingness to try.

If you’ve ever thought, “I wish I could make that,”—this is your year. Start drawing. Start modeling. Start learning.

Ideas are patient. They’ll wait.
But the joy comes when you finally bring them to life. 🌹

Wolf Territories had an amazing memorial for Luna Lunaria on Sunday. DJ Spirit was the last performer of the day and honored Luna by playing her song requests through the years. They say that if you listen to a person's favorite songs, you get a little more insight into that person. It was a lovely tribute. Luna's Real World Son was there and asked if some of it could be filmed.
Here it is, Luna's last requests.

Just added a 1930 Lincoln Model L at the Venues. As with the other cars, it's PBR, full perm, unscripted, and free to take. I'll add more as I go along.

You can find this area at the Emporium by entering the lobby and clicking the Art Deco or Entertainment Venue signs on the left. Or you can take the bridge immediately behind you.
