2008.10.27 19:00 - Doug's new look

Threedee was the guardian for the evening. The log was posted by Adelene, and the comments are hers.

Threedee, doug, and Maxine were already at the pavilion when I arrived.

Bell: *ding*
doug Sosa: hmm? I wonder what he will say?
Maxine Walden: oh, here comes a flying lion, Adelene
doug Sosa: i wish i cou;d turn on the cushion.
Maxine Walden: yes, I feel that way too,
Maxine Walden: I can turn my camera but not my av
Threedee Shepherd: doug, rez already!
doug Sosa: i think i'll move over one and see if that helps.
doug Sosa: aren't i rexed? still in my grey sweats?
Maxine Walden: still the man in grey but with blue trousers
Maxine Walden: amidst whitish lions
doug Sosa: least i'm not naked.
doug Sosa: feel vulnerable, a lion, a lion-like, and a lady.
Adelene Dawner chuckles.
Maxine Walden: a triad to be vulnerable amidst?
doug Sosa: yes!
Maxine Walden: Not sure what to say...feels pretty quiet over in this corner
Threedee Shepherd: Well doug, we can "hear" you even if your Av is ephemeral, np.
doug Sosa: interesting i seem normal to myself.
Maxine Walden: I had that come up the other day, when some saw Adams and I sharing a cushion and both Adams and I saw that we were on separate cushions...different viewpoints?
Threedee Shepherd: slow update of client side, more likely
Maxine Walden: ah...
doug Sosa: anythingi can do to speed it up?
Threedee Shepherd: probably need to reboot
doug Sosa: ugh.
Threedee Shepherd: Although SL in this version has been acting up lately
doug Sosa: reboot SL or the whole machine?
Threedee Shepherd: sl
doug Sosa: here goes!

Doug left, and returned a moment later.

Maxine Walden: see you soon
Maxine Walden: how are you each? Nice to see you at Princeton
Maxine Walden: here doug comes again
doug Sosa: any better?
Threedee Shepherd: yes

Adelene Dawner: My offer still stands to help you out with that sometime, Doug.
doug Sosa: that could be very helpdul. When might be good?
Adelene Dawner shrugs. "I am busy tonight, but anytime, really. In fact..."
Adelene Dawner rifles around in her inventory.
doug Sosa: i've found that anytime is the hardest, its not even in my calendar program :)
Adelene Dawner: wear that, Doug.
doug Sosa accepted your inventory offer.
Maxine Walden: umm wondering what is about to happen to doug
doug Sosa: wow. ad gave me this skin.
Adelene Dawner: And those.

Maxine Walden: ah. gifts from the flying liion...
Adelene Dawner: Yay! Doug's not a ghost!
stevenaia Michinaga: wow
Adelene Dawner: Those are just the 'boy next door' skin and eyes, from the library... but they're definitely not ghostly. ^.^
doug Sosa: can they be lighter, both skin and eyes?
Maxine Walden: doug looks the same to me, different to everyone else?
Threedee Shepherd: yes different
stevenaia Michinaga: yes, but you look loke smoke to me Maxine
Threedee Shepherd: zoom in on him to see changes
Maxine Walden: arg, maybe my machine is stuck, oh, I like smoke?
Adelene Dawner: They can be lightened, I think, Doug, but that should probably wait 'till later.
doug Sosa: i used to be called "ashes".
Maxine Walden: oh, I see him, browner skin...
doug Sosa: the ral me is about in between. some suntan but notnthat deep.
Maxine Walden: you know, doug and I arrived at precisely the same time, same spot, would that have done anything to our appearance?
Maxine Walden: oh, Adelene has morphed...
Maxine Walden: is morphing
stevenaia Michinaga: geees, quite the picky group, cure an albino and we are still tweeking the result
Maxine Walden: lol, Steve
doug Sosa: well, i just want to look like me.

Maxine Walden: lol again, Steve
Adelene Dawner: mmhmm

Adelene Dawner: You can keep the hair you have, I'm just looking at the skin tone right now.
stevenaia Michinaga: I have no hair.. and like to think of it as... hair
Adelene Dawner chuckles.
Threedee Shepherd: I have whie hair I like to think exists ^,^
doug Sosa: and i like this kind of textury shirt i've got, but the back of my head looks lke i've got microchipinplants.
Adelene Dawner: Doug. Skin tone: lighter, darker, or same?

stevenaia Michinaga: I will listen more intently...smile
stevenaia Michinaga accepted your inventory offer.
stevenaia Michinaga: thx
Adelene Dawner: There ya go, Steve. Wear that. Green's the bell, and pretty much automatic - blue's the 'alarm off' button, and red is to send an alarm to someone else. That's a beta version tho.
Maxine Walden: oh, great gong!!
Adelene Dawner: ^.^
Adelene Dawner: The gong and alarm sounds are replaceable, too - just replace the sounds in those prims with whatever sound you want to use.
Adelene Dawner: It'll update automatically.
doug Sosa: may I?
doug Sosa accepted your inventory offer.
Maxine Walden accepted your inventory offer.
Maxine Walden: thanks, Adelene
Adelene Dawner: I was going to wait 'till I was out of beta to distribute, but what the hey.
doug Sosa: bell, skin, amazing.
Adelene Dawner: One important note: The alarm function only works if the target is in the same sim as you. Also, it's case-sensitive.
stevenaia Michinaga: huh? target?
Adelene Dawner: click the red button, Steve.
doug Sosa: someone once posted a bell that worked outside SL, a japanese bell, ..
stevenaia Michinaga: so I can send the alarm to somene?
Adelene Dawner: mmhmm
Adelene Dawner: ^.^
stevenaia Michinaga: what's channel 1?
Adelene Dawner: type /1 before the message
stevenaia Michinaga: thx
Adelene Dawner: The script will hear it that way, but it doesn't go into regular chat.
Threedee Shepherd: So, now that we have been a salon of a different type, any PaB type comments or topics (says the Gardian of the Evening)?
Adelene Dawner: (and, to reduce lag, the script doesn't listen unless you press the button first. Just FYI.)
doug Sosa: Well, i need to leave and i'll go check myselfin the mirror to see what this looks like:)
stevenaia Michinaga: lol
Adelene Dawner: hehe, 'night doug ^.^
Maxine Walden: I will need to go soon as well
