Recently a lot of you have switched over to using Exodus Viewer and have been contacting me about a few things that you guys are all having problems with. I figured I’d cover them all here cuz it seems everyone is having the same issues.

1. Lines and/or glitches on your pictures: I did get that as well in the latest releases so I have actually gone back to Beta 5 which is available at this link: 11.10.31.1 That’s the release that is working best for me right now without any glitches or other issues. I will keep updating with every new release though and see if it works better for me.
2. New snapshot window: The new snapshot feature is actually part of SL Viewer 3 that Exodus has adapted. You will find the snapshot feature like this not only in Exodus but also in the official SL 3 viewers and any other viewer that has adapted the v3 UI. It’s a bit tricky to get used to but here are some screenshots of the steps you take to take a pic now:
   a. Click Save to Computer
   b. Click Resolution
   c. Choose your desired resolution and hit save
3. My resolution and graphics card: I shoot all of my pictures at 5760×3084 resolution and I have a gtx 560ti graphics card. All of the images you see on my blog are photoshopped (unless otherwise stated).

The tattoo I’m wearing is from Huz Tats. Huz Tats temporarily does not have an inworld location at the moment so if you’ve been looking to pick up some of the brilliant tattoos from there, you can try looking on marketplace or contacting Hunain Bellic inworld and he’ll be able to help you out.

The October issue of Avenue Magazine has just hit the stands and for this month I thought I would talk about my favorite costume store on the grid, Deviance. If you’ve never been to Deviance, you’re missing out and should go check out the store…like right now. For all my style credits, check out pages 85 to 90.

Also don’t forget to read the whole magazine because one of my most favorite designers (and good friends) is on the cover, Faint Paulse of Ladies who Lunch. Check out her awesome interview from pages 35 to 44.

Finally, and off topic, tomorrow there will be a big announcement about Kirstens Viewer. Keep an eye on their blog for all the details. I will also be doing a Kirstens Viewer post tomorrow as I have been fortunate enough to test the preview viewer S22 that will also be announced very soon. I am really excited about all this, so make sure to come back tomorrow for all the details!

The month of Ramadan has come to an end and Eid ul-Fitr is upon us. I usually wear something ethnic-ish (is that a word?) for my ramadan and eid posts but when I received this gorgeous dress a few days ago, I knew it was going to be my Eid dress. I love the fun, flirtyness of this dress and I also love that it’s white!

I was going to wear my tiara to complete the outfit, but SL seems to have eaten it. :( I guess my princess card is going to be revoked unless SL has pity on me and decides to give it back. *crosses fingers*

Happy Eid everyone!

So I totally stole this off Mr. Aries’ flickr because I LOVE how “AMAZE” it turned out! (There you go Sebastien, didn’t think I would blog that word, did ya? :P)

Anyhow, this hair is fabulous and it’s only L$75 right now per color pack. My favorite part about it is the chopsticks in the back (which are not that visible in the picture), but are color change. The hair is out at this price till Sunday for Project Themeory so make sure to drop by soon.

Here’s what I’m wearing:

Zaara Kohime has released two items from her new denim collection already. Last week she released the classic jeans that were clean cut and completely hand drawn with 4 different options for cuffs.

Today she released her distressed jeans, which you can see me wearing in this post. The distressed jeans also come with 4 different cuff options (straight, skinny, folded and flares) and they come in 8 colors! The whole denim collection is completely hand drawn and brilliantly crafted. I admit to being a bit biased because Zaara is my best friend (but she is totally evil too) however these jeans are my absolute favorites on the grid now.

You’ll be seeing more of her denim collection over the next few weeks.

The top I am wearing is a Zaara classic and she has recently made it available in 12 gorgeous colors. The best part about this top is that it’s only L$95!
