Step Up! against content theft

Step up! is a campaign that aims at raising awareness about content theft. The concept originates with a small group – Angie Mornington, Gabrielle Riel, Gwen Carillon and Saffia Widdershins. But more and more people are now becoming involved.

Content theft happens when the work of a creator is stolen and sold or given away without the creator's agreement-- hair, clothes, skins, houses, furniture, transport, music, etc. Content theft discourages creators from creating rich and valuable content making your Second Life less interesting.

So to fight against content theft, join the campaign:

1. be informed: http://stepupsl.wordpress.com/
2. get the Step Up! kiosk (drop by LnL and click the poster -- on the photo above, top left corner -- and the rotating box);
3. share it with friends and customers;
4. wear the orange campaign ribbon;
5. boycott uploads on November 5;
6. organise Step Up! events!

Remember, on November 5th we will demonstrate our commitment by NOT uploading anything to the grid. Let's send a clear message to Linden Lab that we've had ENOUGH content theft!

This campaign is about awareness, education and celebration! Join us!

Happy Halloween!

Our friend Niicolee, London and I went for a Halloween stroll! And look where we ended up, at the Haunted Mansion! This is a very cool place, with plenty of areas to explore. The sim is called Prairie Shores and one of the project's mentors is Second Pride. You have to check out their Halloween ride (get the HUD at the door before going in and follow their indications so you can fully enjoy the sound effects and the narrator). Then board one of the cars and hold on to your seats! A friendly warning... keep your hands and feet inside the car at all times! O.o hehe
After the ride, explore the place a bit and you'll end up finding a devilish dance room with plenty of scary devices!Beware! You'll end up... dead..! O.O LOL
Anyway, it was for the sake of fun! Do drop by for a visit! It's well worth the time! We had a lot of fun! :)
Happy Halloween from LnL!

A very cool friend, Dominick!

London and I visited a good friend of ours, Dominick Manatiso! Dom has been working hard along with some very cool friends on the sim San Padre Bike World! It's a really nice place to visit with some of the most friendly people in SL! The sim has a lot of bike related stores, including Dom's Southern Choppers and daily live music! Another location you can visit in the sim is the San Padre Romantic Forest & Mall with a really nice atmosphere and plenty of music too!

In the picture above, Dom is wearing a gift London and I gave him, an LnL outfit especially made for him! He loved it! We are glad he did! Below, a photo of us with the bikes Dom gave us! We love them!
Thanks! :)

Ongoing Hunts!


Phew! This has been a lot of work!! Check out the wall with all the ongoing and upcoming hunts at LnL! There's still time to drop by and pick up the prizes for the Eros Quest, the Vampire Hunt, the MHOH2 and the Myths and Legends Hunt! The first two end on October 31st and the last two end on November 15.
Starting on November 1, we will have the Falling Leaves Hunt and on November 8, the Thanksgiving Hunt. Later in December, we already have the Candy Cane and the Christmas Hunt scheduled and in January, the 40 Below Hunt! As you can see, no lack of activity!! :)

Looks are a killer!! ;)

In the new room setup London created (great job!), we gathered to discuss the topic "Looks are a killer"! The impact of image in SL and why we decide to look the way we do were two of the most debated topics. Some mentioned the fact that the way we look may be an extension of how we look in RL, others said that it was the expression of a wish! Interesting was the discussion about non-human avatars. Most seemed to agree that having such an avatar carries a message - take me for who I am and not only for what I look like!
Next week, we will meet again with a new topic! I will post it a few days ahead! Keep an eye on the blog. See you Tuesday, back at the usual 2pm SLT schedule, in the LnL Lounge!

Monday, October 26, 2009

Discussion tomorrow at 3pm SLT!

Topic for tomorrow: Looks are a killer!

The way we decide to portrait ourselves shows a lot about who we are in RL and what we expect from Second Life. What do you think? Do you agree? Or do you find this statement a total nonsense? Join us for this hopefully controversial discussion in the LnL Lounge, at 3pm!

Outfit 19 is an impressive Vampire outfit in black with discreet touches of red! Both the shirt and the pants are amazing! The pants are mod so you can adjust to the type of shoewear. All extras are fitted for the female and male avatar! It comes with cool buckled textured armbands, a collar that gives it a refined look, a flexi coat bottom, a pair of black gloves and elegant looking boots with very rich details.

Interesting places!!

In our roamings about, London and I visited a few sims! Here are two locations we have selected for you to enjoy! :)We took this picture (above) at the Garden of Love and Romance at Hero. It's a beautiful place with a lot of hidden corners to be with your special one. And we had a lot of fun as you see!! ;)
Have a drink and a quiet moment to talk to someone or go dancing in one of the locations where you can have some privacy!
As we were in a dancing mood, we headed to the SS Galaxy where there's a huge dance hall! This time it was decorated for Halloween! Dress up and enjoy jazzy music! And blues and blues too!!
Invite someone you like and enjoy a quiet evening dancing away and listening to very good music! :)

Yesterday's discussion!

Help! SL took over my life!
The topic provided plenty of room for a lively discussion about Second Life and how immersed in it one can get. Varied issues were addressed like the impact spending many hours in SL has on RL, especially family, and reasons why SL can easily become addictive. Most of those in the room stated that being in SL meant reorganising their RL schedule and cutting back on TV and reading hours. So true! It was a very interesting dicussion and those who attended were great! More would have been said but we ran out of time! We will be back next Tuesday, 2pm SLT, in LnL's Lounge for another discussion with a brand new topic! Join us!

To be released today O - 17!!!


Outfit 17 is an outfit inspired in the samurai warrior. Its tones of red and black add to the classical and elegant look. This outfit has a top that evokes the leathery samurai armours, pants (mod so they can be worn with different types of shoewear) in the same detailed texture, showing a Japanese intricate lace in the front. It also brings a flexi bottom skirt and rich extras, a shoulder protection in three layers, beautifully shaped boots with a top part matching the outfit, the leg protections samurai wore. The final touch, an unbelievably crafted and unique katana filled with rich decorations and a flexi finish, to be worn either on the upper leg or spine! Just impressive! Check it out at LnL!

Tomorrow's discussion!

Tomorrow's discussion is about a topic that is close to many of those who are in SL! I believe everyone of us has felt this at some point! ;o) The topic is called -- Help! - SL took over my life! Join us for a fun and lively discussion at 2pm SLT in the lounge area of LnL! We are looking forward to seeing you and hearing your opinions!

The headless owner, the skeleton and the LnLs!


London and I have been out and about having some Halloween fun! We stumbled upon Lady Hathaway who, with her partner, built a cool maze for Halloween hunters with secret rooms like the one in the photo! To complete the task, you have to find 5 spiders and at the end you will receive a present! Don't forget to wear your scepter before starting the hunt and.. good luck! Don't get lost! ;o)

LnL in iCNN!


LnL has been interviewed by Kiko Hunniton for iCNN a few days ago and here is the link. Check out the article and the photos Kiko took. Thanks Kiko, it was very interesting!

Preparing for a shooting session!


Oh! Not that kind of shooting! :) London and I were looking for the right place to shoot the photo for the poster of Outfit 17, LnL's next release. We roamed about several sims and while London was trying to check for cool locations, I took this pic at Japan Kansai (with a preview of the outfit!). This sim is a portrait of a village in the Edo Period. If you are into Japanese ambiances, do drop by and enjoy the beautiful scenery! It is worthwhile for sure! I believe people roleplay there, so please be respectful of that, thank you! :)
