The Anchorage, Part 3

[Pendraia]

Good luck with that Lorraine...sometimes the names of the blocks can be misleading though as what the Poser ones do is often different to the DS ones.

 

[Lorraine]

I think I'm going to need a lot of luck, Pen

So today (slight exaggeration but not by much) half of Northland is under water, roads are closed from flooding and slips, ferries are cancelled, all in all one hell of a rain, and some really nice person emptied my dinghy I think the drought is over.

And in the good news dept, a wifi card for my computer arrived today. I only ordered it at midnight Wednesday, am very happy with the delivery. I'm even happier with the installation...five minutes and I was using my computer instead of the house laptop

 

[Pendraia]

I think you might be right...I've always struggled when I try and convert poser shaders to DS shadermixer...

Ouch...good that someone emptied it for you. Congrats on the wifi card...

It was my birthday today. My big Brother and Big sister called. They live about 400 miles away from me in my hometown, Sacramento. Or as we like to call it. Sacra-tomato. Home of the Tomato-Tomato-Tomato juice! It's nice to know that after Years we still call each other from time to time. The rule with Birthdays is simple. You MUST call in before midnight. My son also called. Wonderful lad. Just ask me. I was then treated to Barbeque (BBQ) Ribs at a bad rib house. While I'll know NEVER to go to dickey's for BBQ Ribs again, the company was just fine.

Oh and for those that didn't know. Content Paradise gives you a $5.00 gift coupon on your birthday. It's good for about 3 months. Hey man! 5 Bucks is righteous bucks.

 

[Lorraine]

Happy birthday, Rob! Glad it was a goodie even if the ribs were bad

 

[quietrob]

Thanks Lorraine! I'm still healthy (I hope. CAT Scan next week) and so I got no complaints. Besides, the jalapeno sausage was spicy but good and on facebook I got 44 birthday congrats. Not a bad day.

 

[Miss B]

Sounds like you had a very good day, and yes I remember the CP birthday gift coupon, though I shop there so infrequently, I wouldn't remember to go check.

 

[Pendraia]

They sound you an email iirc...but I tend to forget to use it.

Rob check out the birthday thread here too! Happy birthday for yesterday...

 

[Miss B]

I think they do Pen, but I've only made 2 purchases in the last 4 or 5 years, Poser 7 and Poser 9, so I'm probably not on any active email/newsletter list of theirs any more.

 

[quietrob]

I noticed it last year but let it pass. That will never happen again. One of my secret favorite movies, "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes", there was a saying. "Coupons. That's like money isn't it?" I'll find something for around five bucks.

Where is the birthday thread?

 

[Pendraia]

I haven't made any purchases recently but I'm fairly sure I got an email in January.

Birthday thread... The Birthday Thread!

 

[quietrob]

Thanks Pendraia (Great name). I'm heading over there. At least the birthday hat will fit perfectly over the point in my head!

 

[Lorraine]

Morning all! What are the odds that the day you stay up way too late (4am), someone will wake you up (dog, 9am, phone, 11am)? Very good if you are me. YAWN!!

 

[Satira Capriccio]

Happy birthday! Or is it belated now?


So ... after a bazillion hours ... looking what I have done.

The 3D Artistry of Satira Capriccio
​

And ... morning Lorraine.

It's sooo cold here. It snows all day!!!

 

[quietrob]

Satira, I accept all birthday wishes for one week after my birthday. This is done to maximize loot and to increase guilt and pressure for the next year!

Hivewire! Hey Hivewire! Where's my ponpon Coupon!?

 

[Miss B]

Niiiice Satira. I always liked your old site, but this is really looking great.

 

[quietrob]

I just visited the site! Very Nice! I especially appreciate your choice in sculptures. Excellent taste. I'm not surprised.

 

[Lorraine]

Hivewire! Hey Hivewire! Where's my ponpon Coupon!?

Check your reward points, you should have an extra 500 as a birthday pressie from Hivewire

 

[Lorraine]

Love your new website, Satira, very clean and sharp, which I really like. And here is my first finished render with Diva wearing all your products

Dancing In Clogs

The clogs were a funny one. They loaded fine onto Diva but when I saved them and tried to reload them onto her, they shrank down to Luna size And no matter how many times I did them, they did the same. After picking all my hair up off the floor and glueing it back on, and thinking I would have to abandon them, I tried TURNING THE DIVA MORPH IN THEM TO ZERO and boom, there they were. You sized them to Diva, then DS put a Diva morph in too. So zeroing the DS morph sized them properly. Weird. The tights and the NA boots didn't do that but probably because originally they were made for Dawn. Don't you just LOVE software?! And the clogs fit Dawn too in DS, that's a plus

PS the only thing I couldn't reproduce in DS was the bumps on the clogs but I don't think it matters
