I just want to wish everyone a fabulous new year. I hope it is your best yet!
As for 2007, I reached two important milestones in my life: I graduated college and I met the love of my life.
Enjoy yourselves :)
This is an off-topic blog post, so feel free to skip it if you aren’t interested!I haven’t posted an actual blog lately - it’s just been tacox3 stuff - but I wanted to do something I’ve been meaning to do forever: I posted a paper I wrote and presented at the Mid-Atlantic Popular Culture Association/American Culture Association Conference in November. It can be found under papers on my blog.
The paper itself is about relationships in Second Life and tackles the question of whether or not people are able to separate their real life feelings and emotions from this virtual world. To do this, I asked participants questions relating to their views and opinions on what constituted fidelity both in the game and in their first lives. The paper was done through my university and I went through all the proper channels to insure my subjects are both kept confidential and safe.
I invite anyone and everyone to read it and give their thoughts and opinions on the topic, and to open discussion on the matter. I am curious about what other people think who actually are involved in relationships in the game.
Back on the subject of taco taco taco, I’ve heard it through the grapevine that people are somewhat unhappy with my taco boxes because they are so prim heavy, so a sculptie taco is being created as we speak :) New freebies and releases soon to come!
I am finally unleashing Dennis Rodman into Second Life.
He is a group freebie, but I’ve put him up in my main store here for L$125. He comes with free piercing jewelry and info on how to create those awesome tattoos for a mere L$1!
I’ve been working on quite a few new girls and guys; okay only two new guys, but a whopping 3 petite shapes that are simply adorable. I’m loving all these new skins I’ve been finding to try on my shapes. Because it is such a science getting a shape to perfectly fit your skin, I suggest trying out the demos I have out there! :)
<3, Marissa
I have three new shapes to release and a freebie to announce.
I’m offering a freebie no-mod shape to group members of “yo quiero taco”
It’s free to join, and it will keep you posted on new releases and make you privvy to free gifts!
Now on to the releases! Each of these shapes come with a dress shape, too.
1. Veronica - She is 6′4
2. Gemma - She is 6′2
3. Jennifer - I released this as a gift to the Ewing VIP group, but I’m setting her for sale. She is tall and thin at 6′6
I have some new shapes to release, along with some news and spoilers…
First off, I’ve lowered the prices on all my shapes. While shapes are something anyone can make, I’ve found that there is definitely a market out there for them. It doesn’t have to cost a lot to look good!
I have quite a few new female shapes I’m preparing, but those aren’t ready yet. I will also be putting up a new female freebie shape soon. :)
Chuck Norris is still a freebie, but my two latest celebrity shapes will not be.
I’ve made a Dennis Rodman/Carmen Electra combo. Both of these shapes will be no modify and no copy, but they WILL be transfer, so if you are looking for the perfect start to a couple costume…. As usual, these shapes will come with information regarding skins, hair, and eyes, but I will also be including all the other styling information, AS WELL AS free body jewelry made specifically for Dennis Rodman’s shape. That will be coming soon and of course I will announce that when I do, with pictures.
I’d also like to announce my partnership with KessKreations Jewelry at my main store in Ischia. There you can find amazing necklaces, earrings, and rings that are so exquisite, well-made, and unique.
Okay onto my two new men’s shapes:
First up is Robert
And now Clive
While they look sort of similar, there are subtle differences that one can only find out by trying on a demo!
