Copyable Animations

Most animators do not sell copyable dances - I don't understand this. I like to have a copy in my inventory and another in my AO in case of the dreaded inventory loss. If they think transferrability is so important, why don't they use some of the very nice vendor systems that allow you to buy for other people and have it sent directly to the gift receiver?

In general, I dislike "no copy" anything. I like to mix and match, wear a set of shoes with more than one outfit, etc. And I like to put an entire outfit into a single folder, where a quick "Add To Outfit" will put the entire thing on. No rummaging through my shoes folder, trying to find the pair that I know works perfectly with the outfit, no trying to track down which folder that piece of underwear that I'm wearing is hiding in, nothing like that. I put it all in one folder along with sub-folders and happily don't care.

Except for the "no copy" objects. If I want to use a single piece with something else, I have to always go track it down. But maybe I'm strange, I don't like hunting through tons of folders trying to find the one piece I can readily see in my mind but that I can't remember the name of.

The maker of the Huddles animation tool is keeping a list of animators that sell copyable animations. She receives tons of requests for how to recover animations lost through inventory bugs.

I for one plan to patronize those merchants who sell copyable animations and outfits more and more. I'm tired of it. When I lost an important piece of inventory, it included L$20,000+ worth of animations, *poof*. And very few merchants are willing to give you another copy, that is if you can even remember all of the animations you had, which I did not.

RestrainedLife Amethyst Collar Plugin v1.2

A couple of months ago, I began selling a plugin for the Amethyst collar that implemented all of the features of the RestrainedLife client's features. a couple of months ago and that was a huge success. A few days ago, Marine added to the RestrainedLife protocol, adding a few new features that I have put into an updated version of the plugin. This is a free upgrade to anyone who purchased it before, just IM me for an upgrade. If you haven't purchased it, go directly to the RestrainedLife plugin for the Amethyst collar page on SLExchange.

The new features include control over the map windows, the ability to restrict touching objects farther than 1.5m away, and support for the #RLV "shared objects" folder. This new "shared objects" folder allows the collar owner to force attachment of anything in it onto the sub - that also includes forcing clothing to be worn. The wiki has more details on the #RLV folder.

You can visit the in-world Leaping Dolphin Boutique store, or purchase my products at SLExchange or Onrez.

My plugin provides a more complete, and I'd like to think, intuitive, interface to the features available from the modified client. What follows is the help document, listing all of the features.


Welcome to Leaping Dolphin Boutique's RestrainedLife Viewer plugin for the Amethyst collar. This plugin provides owners of a sub with an Amethyst collar access to the full range of functionality provided by the RestrainedLife Viewer. No other RestrainedLife plugin provides the comprehensive access to the functionality provided by the viewer, now the owner can take off clothing and attachments, lock outfits, force sitting on an object, prevent standing, lock channel communications, full teleport control, and more.

And all owners will be notified if the sub ever logs in without the RestrainedLife client - never again wonder if they've found a way to circumvent the restrictions.

Just install this plugin into their collar and know they are securely under your total control.

The RestrainedLife Viewer is a modified version of the SecondLife client software that provides a wide range of functionality for enhancing the bondage experience. It is available for download and the developer, Marine, has a blog covering the RestrainedLife viewer enhancements.

New in v1.2!
Version 1.2 adds support for the new commands in the 1.11 version of the RestrainedLife viewer. Now, the map windows may be controlled, the sub may be prevented from touching anything farther away than 1.5m, and the owner may attach or detach anything in the #RLV shared folder. (See 'Shared Folders' below for more details.)

This is a free upgrade to anyone who purchased the v1.0 plugin, if you previously purchased v1.0, please IM Tiessa Montgolfier for an upgrade.

Is Your SecondLife Naked?

This is so pathetic - someone has a version of the SecondLife viewer that allows you to strip the other avatars around you and see them naked.

STRIP ANYONE AT THE CLICK OF A BUTTON!!!

There she is, body made for sin and the face of an angel. If only you could see more...
Or that hot group of ladies at the club what better way to really know which one is your
dream girl than to have them all naked before your eyes.

With NakedLife you can!!

As simple as an IM, but much more interesting!
Click anyone into PERFECT NAKEDNESS! Just Imagine it. And when you are sick of just imagining..
It’s very simple BUY the NakedLife registration pack and have the real eye candy at your fingertips!
WHENEVER and WHEREVER you want!!

Yes, you too with the click of a button could turn any avatar around you naked for the low, low price of L$3200. And please, stop!!! all!!! the!!! exclamation!!! points!!!

With L$3200, you can go to any strip joint in SL and get all the naked avatars you want.

Or, go to a skin store and stare at all the naked boobies you want - for free! You could even stand around and ogle the avatars that newly purchased skins or are trying on demos if you want to see moving naked avatars.

Hey, wait a minute - I could go to a *men's* skin store... hmmmm.
