So I missed the first round of the blindfold bandwagon. But you can't have too much of a good thing, right?

The Oracle will hear you, my child.





Hair - Sweet Dreams from EMO-tions
Dress - Elizabeth from Pixel Dolls
I hope I don't have to tell you where the blindfold is from.

A little change of pace for me - chillin' at our place after a very nice night last night.

Shape - Boy Next Door, Library
Skin - Male Latte - beard, Nomine
Hair - Mouth - Brunette, Bryce Designs
Eyes - Realistic Eyes - Earth, Miriel

All MHOH:

Hoodie - Rebel
Tshirt - Red Tshirt, Robbish Design
Jeans - Men's Faded Lowrise, Wicked Fashions
Shoes - Fabric Sneakerz, BeReal
Shades - M Darkstar 4m MK Designs

Pipe - Curved, Foxy's

A note - I paid for the skin and the pipe. Everything else is either Gnubie store or the MHOH hunt.

Quick post. I must say that I wouldn't bought the "Nokko" set from B@R if I hadn't seen only the blouse on Flickr. But B@R is so cheap that I can buy a whole set just for the blouse. The rest can be useful if I'm in the mood for a different style.

Skin: LAQ April 08 Fair
Hair: Ingenue Myrna Mahogny
Eyes: PC Lavender Field
Glasses: Artilleri Gladys Glasses black
Blouse: part of Bare@Rose Nokko set
Necklace: Schadenfreude Pearl Necklace with Cameo
Argyle sweater: ETD (not sure if it's still for sale)
Belt, skirt: Artilleri Eva set, (previous group gift, now free at the Gnubie Store)
Shoes: N-Core Stylas Xtreme, black (They are just as good as Sean said!)

I think the sweater vest was inspired by Madhu. I was going through lots of vests, but liked the Argyle look best. The blouse is on underwear layer, so it's lots of options for tops over. The blouse sleeves is much better than I can show - part transparent and the collar is simply perfect with the thin black ribbon. I almost regret that I used a necklace too.

A woman with a lot of brass

I had to keep on working on this outfit until I was satisfied. Kyllie's Neko 3000 made me realize that flesh was too weak for this much hardware. I polished some of my brass and put it on:

Another holiday and the steam's not run out yet...


I wonder if this outfit is ready yet? I suppose I could go out like this.


A quick check from behind in better light...

Hmmm... Ok, but it needs something.


Honestly, officer, I assure you it's just a fashion accessory. It's not even loaded.

Helmet: Lady Nautilus by Fade Dana
Left eye: from Brutal Deluxe by Fade Dana
Boots and complete suit: H4D CyberX Photon by Terrace Orman
Some of the body's shininess from Body Oil outfit by Nyoko Salome
Neck robotics from HAV-2 Cyborg outfit by Hydrogen Excelsior
Limb robotics from Girl Power 3000 outfit by Zoe Llewelyn
Pelvic girdle from Tech Slut outfit by Emma Thorn

Look of the Day, 2009-07-05 on Flickr - Photo Sharing!

Look of the Day, 2009-07-05.jpg

I definitely didn't plan on such a monochromatic look today! As I've mentioned elsewhere, I often build my outfits from the shoes up. Today I wanted to make something around N-Core's pink Stylus pumps. It's a rather hot pink, though, so I was having trouble finding something to go with it.

I stopped by Sn@tch hoping for something that would work when I spied the Lucky Chair with my letter on it. After grabbing that prize, the chair came up with a wildcard! Ok, I looked around... nobody else there! I grabbed that one too. Then it came up with a wildcard again! This time somebody else was around, so I backed off. (Fair's fair, right?) I waited...

They stopped by the chair, then walked off.

... OK, THEN, FINE. *yoink* Grabbed that prize too. Hey, nobody else wanted it! While there I also picked up their Impact Skirt. I then hopped on home so I could try stuff on.

The third prize, as it turned out, was a set of Sn@tch's Candy Stockings. How gray is a candy color, I'm not sure, but I won't complain! Once I paired the stockings with the black skirt, though, inspiration struck, and I rummaged through my inventory for more grays and blacks. I didn't want to overaccessorize this time, so I tried to keep simple anything I did put on.

A final touch was the garter from Digital Dragon Designs. It added just a touch of sexy. I spent some time refitting it to my thigh, but it was worth it!

Bracelet: Miriel - Double Metal Bracelet - black/silver (no longer available)
Breast Shading: Ayumi - Cleavage v2.6
Eyes: Miriel - Standard Eyes - indigo (no longer available)
Garter: Digital Dragon Designs - Color Change Garter with Flexy Ribbons 352
Glasses: House of Curios - Skinny Framed Glasses #002
Hair: Kin - Yohkoh - black
Jewelry (necklace & earrings): Lassitude & Ennui - Irina - black & onyx
Lashes: Celestial Studios - Classic 3
Nails: Nora - Nail Polish, Shiny Black (no longer available)
Poses: Reel Expression - Fashion S1 11 Curvy; TorridWear - Geometry 07
Shape: custom (not available)
Shoes: N-Core - Stylus XtremeHeel - black
Skin: Nora - Samantha - Toffee, "Black Panther" makeup (no longer available)
Skirt: Sn@tch - Impact Skirt - black
Stockings: Sn@tch - Candy Stockings - gray
Top: Ayumi - Button Top - charcoal

This is an accidental look. Bea was just getting dressed and put on the new top from Pixel Dolls along with the jeans and tat she was already wearing. Inspiration, and she ended up with what is - for Bea - a tough look. (I realize that it's not very tough - but for a gal whose fave store is Icing, this is pretty tough. )

Hair - Jess in pumpkin Truth

Top - Audie Jacket Black, PixelDolls
Pants - Rhinestone Light Denim - MC Creations
Tat - Tribal Dragons - Ominik

I use GIMP for everything. Not by choice -- it's all I can afford right now. The learning curve isn't any worse than PS or PSP, I'd say.

I do use GIMP to crop my pics, and I'll occasionally add effects as well. PhotoFiltre is also free and can be used to add effects, and it's much easier to use than GIMP. But most of what you see in my pics is just me using the Windlight settings and the anti-aliasing feature. I don't really play around with any kind of post-processing too much.

I use the picnik photo editing stuff either here or on flickr. Eventually I am going to get the premium membership, but it isn't a purchase priority right now.

I have GIMP and PhotoPlus, by Serif. They will sell you the current version, or give you the previous one free.

I use Picnik a lot too. I have GIMP installed, but it's a bit tougher to figure out. I have some old supersimple program tat I use for cutting, copy and paste together. It's so outdated that I blush just by the thought. Photoimpression 4.
