About me...




Hi, and welcome to my blog.

I will post a lot of things on it, but I suspect most of my post will talk about my passion which is photography in SecondLife.

Messing around...

Image
Been messing a bit with my avatar. Well, it was the moment of the year for it in fact. Received a number of updates, so why not tweak a bit then with everything. I am in fact a very basic standard market avatar, Catwa head, Maitreya body. OK, I have added the V - Bento from Session to it, and that is it. Hair and so are paraphranelia that get easily changed, so I don't consider them as body parts. Now I was using as skin a LAQ ( http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/LAQ/154/67/23 )  one, and was rather pleased with it. But now I notices that the main activity of Sessions are skins, so I decided to give it a try and check their skin set out. And I was stunned by the result. They do take another approach. In fact they have one skin, in a number of tones, so up to this very simple. Their skin is developped specific for BoM (Bakes on Mesh  https://community.secondlife.com/knowledgebase/english/bakes-on-mesh-r1512 /), but instead of creating a number of skins with different details...

The quest for applications

When you ask a SecondLife photographer which tool he or she uses to work on his snapshots, the most standard answers are either GiMP, or Adobe PhotoShop. So when I started I tried these also. And yes, I know, Adobe PhotoShop is very good, except what struck me the most whas the price for it on a monthly base. GiMP is also good, except I had too much trouble to find my way in it, and get a decent result. I would say GiMP is build for the geeks by the geeks. And I am not a geek... So I looked further, and finally dropped in my google search on the application suite of Affinity , a U.K. company, and decided to give them a try as they had what I needed. Their price looks decent, and I downloaded their software for the trial of 90 days. And to be honest, they have a good structured approach in their way of working. You get the applications quickly in your hand (fingers), and the results are there quickly. And most of all, they exist on Windows PC and macOS. The only thing I missed, was an a...

Welcome to my blog

Image
Hey, Welcome to my first post on my blog. Well, everything needs a start, so does this blog also. Anyway, I will try to be not like the others (I hope) and just post or even do a copy/post of already existing information on other places. No, the goal is that I achieve to publish as personal as possible on it. So what will you find here ? Well, probably some ideas by me which popped up when I was trying to mess in my photographs as an amateur and I achieved something decent (in my opinion, so it doesn't mean in yours :) ) Otherwise, nice places you can visit, or clubs that I like. But as always, it will be my personal view and opinions. And it is up to you to come back and read them.
