Help! The pumpkins are coming! October 28, 2009

After Yoa Ogee’s 1000 day anniversary today it is Yeti Bing’s turn. To celebrate this occasion, you can get this hilarious pumpkin avatar for free today at their store. Yes, all the pumpkins are one avatar!

Haunted Bones October 27, 2009

Halloween is approaching fast and if you haven’t found your perfect costume yet, how about one of the special halloween avatars from “Loco Pocos“? I fell instantly in love with this tiny skeleton – so creepy and cute at the same time! But you could also go for a ghost, a witch, a mummy or a tiny zombie (see them all on XStreetSL).

The special thing about these avatars is that they come with their own HUD, allowing you to customise features like eye colour and even clothes or accessories. This HUD also contains a bunch of gestures and several sound schemes (female and male). Innocent bystanders are guaranteed to die from cute overload by a little skeleton cheerfully waving at them and shouting “hewwo”.

1000 days of Yoa Ogee October 24, 2009

The incredibly talented creator Yoa Ogee is 1000 days in SL today. To celebrate this occasion you can get this free “Aeronaut” avatar in Yoa’s and Yeti’s shop until Sunday 25th October, 1 pm SLT. And if you are already there, do take a look at the rest of the huge avatar range they offer. You won’t be disappointed – the picture shows only about half of what they have!

Burning Life 2009 in a Nutshell – Part 5 October 23, 2009

This year’s BL theme is “Evolution” and it is fascinating to see how different creators have interpreted this topic. Some artists approach it in a more abstract way, like the “Evolution of Fun”, the “Steampunk Evolution” (see Part 4) or the “Evolution of Mind”.

“Evolution of Mind” by Solo Mornington [SLURL].

“Cambrian Explosion” by Sledge Roffo [SLURL] however is the most literal interpretation I have seen so far, and one of the most beautiful installations this year.

Burning Life 2009 in a Nutshell – Part 4 October 22, 2009

Today I started my exploring in one of the corner sims as they always seem to get a bit less traffic than the center ones. And all I can say is that Vya and Leadville host a bunch of very creative and talented people!
