Sex Pictures, Second Life, and Thrixxx

If you’ve seen someone try to do sex pictures from Second Life, chances are what you’ve viewed is utter crap. Second Life is not well made for such pictures – body parts end up in the wrong place; when women’s legs are spread they get an odd dark long shadow along the inner thigh that [...]

What Next…

I feel like I’ve been hitting  lot of peaks lately, and even though it can be a bit draining, now is not the time to slow down. Rather I want to build on the momentum.

The Couple Picture

My SL art is a constant learning experience; advanced at times by asking questions of those more experienced than me, by reading public tutorials, but mostly by personal trial and error.

Reflecting on Shadows

Yesterday I learnt a new trick for my SL art – how to add shadows in post-processing.

SL Photo Contests, Doing it Right: Advice to people thinking of running one.

I am a big fan of entering SL Photography Contests. I’ve got placings in a few too which I’m quite proud of. And in all this entering I have learnt a lot about what appeals in contests, and what turns people off, or perhaps I should be more specific: what makes me want to take [...]

The Experience of SL: Beautiful Sims

There are many aspects to SL life that keep people like me coming back everyday for over a year. And it’s not the seedy big-boobed free-sex underbelly, because that’s all that is – the underbelly. If you get too caught up on that aspect you miss what SL really has to offer. And today I [...]

Art Criticism on Flickr

I spend more time on Flickr, dealing with my SL art, than I actually spend in SL. So to some extent, the things that happen and get said in Flickr matter just as much to me as what happens in my SL life.
Recently a friend from SL joined Flickr and started looking through my pictures. [...]
