identity - Everyday suit

You thought I had stopped working, but no! I have been working away on completely new designs and they have been taking all my time.

I am very fast on the graphics packages but I spend ages trying to get things right, testing various materials, shading, colours and styles. Well now I am happy with my new suit designs and starting to move them from hard-disk to Second Life.


This is a business suit designed to flatter the body, make you look good and to give the correct first impression. This version is from the Everyday range which comes in classic colours of Grey (shown), Blue and Brown and includes matching shirt and flexi tie.



Model is wearing.

A bridge for Middle Earth

This is a bridge I am working for a Middle Earth (Lord of the Rings) sim. This is one of several buildings and the others will include a throne room, library, work room and temple. Then there are all the small props to build, such as a tapestry frame, seats, books, lighting and so on. I just love SL and the ability to try out various things I could never do in real-life.

Disconnected

I am offline and may be for a while longer.
My ISP (Internet Service Provider) has been bought out and to cut costs the new owners are moving everyone across to a cheaper network.

They disconnected me on Thursday 23JAN08 and, this being Monday, I have been offline for six days. I was told I would be re-connected last Thursday but things are not looking good.

I am just angry and frustrated and terribly unhappy with my ISP and we will be moving to an alternate supplier as soon as we can.
We started with Pipex some years ago Pipex and have been on the same tarrif of £20 for a 2Mb connection. Meanwhile Pipex introduced cheaper and better services with a 30Mb connection availabe for te same £20. I also found out that our connection is throttled under heavy usage which accounts for the speed dropping to 1.5Mb when playing SL.

Now Tiscali have taken over we have been disconnected for some time. Seems like time move ISP! Their service desk charges 10p/minute and whenever I manage to get onto them spend something like ten minutes waiting and paying to listen to their selection of music.
