Rosatta Resident: It's been aobut a year
stevenaia Michinaga: aww
stevenaia Michinaga: it has been a slow year
Rosatta Resident: Before I left there was a lot of art going on</good>

<good evening="">
--BELL--</good>

<good evening="">
stevenaia Michinaga: i suspect lots groups follow a parabolic trajectory. I seem to remember one of our artists complaining about SL's TOS regarding ownership of art and some left because of that
stevenaia Michinaga: so the last exhibit remains on the Art Dome
Rosatta Resident: Did they leave because of the TOS or because of the complaining?
stevenaia Michinaga: because of the TOS, not much complaining around here
Rosatta Resident: True. Mellow folks here
stevenaia Michinaga: and usually something in RL
Rosatta Resident: What about the TOS made it so that people would leave?
stevenaia Michinaga: yes, plenty of places for complaining
stevenaia Michinaga: I believe it related to who owns what when it is placed here, I suspect Linden Labs may have the option to use it
stevenaia Michinaga: just a guess, it was a long time ago
Rosatta Resident: Ok
stevenaia Michinaga: but that stuff can upset artists
stevenaia Michinaga: as it should
stevenaia Michinaga: I read about a "cloud service" that has in their TOS that thay can do whatever they want with the files you place on their services including marketing and reuse, so that is typical of these types of organizations
stevenaia Michinaga: they price of "free"
stevenaia Michinaga: *the
Rosatta Resident: Oh. ARt can be 'stolen' essentially
stevenaia Michinaga: no, just reused w/o permission
Rosatta Resident: Ok
stevenaia Michinaga: which is the same thing
stevenaia Michinaga: if you are an artist
Rosatta Resident: I am trying to remember . . . are the hours here 7 and 7?
stevenaia Michinaga: 7-1-7-1
Rosatta Resident: Ok. Thank you
stevenaia Michinaga: there is a schedule on our wiki as it;s not every day
Rosatta Resident: Thank you
stevenaia Michinaga: https://wiki.playasbeing.org
Rosatta Resident: I still get the emails about meetings
stevenaia Michinaga: nods
Rosatta Resident: Thank you. I will bookmark that page
Rosatta Resident: So I got lucky tonight (smile)
stevenaia Michinaga: we just finished a 33 day version of our 99 day projects, which takes place offline on the wiki
stevenaia Michinaga: https://wiki.playasbeing.org/Classes_and_Sessions/The_99_Days_project
stevenaia Michinaga: those are fun to participate in
Rosatta Resident: I saw the days being counted but I didn't read the emails to see what was happening. I did make me miss PaB though
Rosatta Resident: Oh, that was a nice one! It is so much easier to stay motivated in a group
stevenaia Michinaga: this was the most recent one that ended yesterday
stevenaia Michinaga: https://wiki.playasbeing.org/Classes_and_Sessions/The_99_Days_project/99.006_-_2014.11.28
stevenaia Michinaga: yes
Rosatta Resident: Ah. I saw the thankfulness on the email headings and I was thinking "It's not Thanksgiving" lol
stevenaia Michinaga: lol, or.. it can be every day
Rosatta Resident: And should be</good>

<good evening="">
--BELL--</good>

<good evening="">
stevenaia Michinaga: it offers each of us to give our version of gratefulness on a daily basis, which is very much the same as what this group began as in our exploration of the Nature of Reality, each having our own view of it
stevenaia Michinaga: in the end you get a bigger view of things
Rosatta Resident: And that means more sanity, at least it often does
stevenaia Michinaga: usually but not always, but sometimes the radical expressions shed new lihgt on topics
stevenaia Michinaga: *light
Rosatta Resident: Or make you want to cover your ears - run an dhide, something lol
stevenaia Michinaga: at times, yes
Rosatta Resident: I am not happy with this avatar. It hasn't turned out the way I envisioned. Do you have any advice on good places to shop for avatars?
stevenaia Michinaga: I actually have a personal shopper who keeps track of all that from me... only last time I tried on this outfit it corrupted my avatar so I only see a cloud of my avatar, I need to come as my alt to see myself, but I cannot change or remove anything from my avatar anymore.
stevenaia Michinaga: short answer.. no
Rosatta Resident: That must be really frustrating to only be a cloud. Do you know anyone with the skills to sort it out for you?
stevenaia Michinaga: Paradise likes to shop but I haven;t seen her in quite some time, this is her timeslot tonight
stevenaia Michinaga: I tried everything I could find, switching viewers, clean re-install, clear cache's rebaking, nothing works
stevenaia Michinaga: now I have this tail I can't remove (or see)
Rosatta Resident: OH, how strange
stevenaia Michinaga: I did put it on, but I can;t delete it
Rosatta Resident: I wonder if the creator of the outfit could help. Or if it was done deliberately
stevenaia Michinaga: no, it was a repritable vender</good>

<good evening="">
--BELL--</good>

<good evening="">
stevenaia Michinaga: I should be here Saturday night if you are around, otherwise happy shopping and have a happy New Year, I must be off
stevenaia Michinaga: Good seeing you again
Rosatta Resident: Thank you. I'm sorry7 I missed saying good by. I had to jump up and rescue some chicken from a kitten who jumped up onto the counter. Peace and blessings to you!</good>
