Some info about Emerald, and a REALLY fun night out... with the GIRLS!!!

     OK, first with this about Emerald.  Thank you Petr VanBeek for dropping me the link.  Emerald has completely broken with Modular Systems, and is reformatting the way they do business, to ensure that the nonsense doesn't happen again.  This is a good thing.  I've tried every other viewer on the list, and NONE of them come even close to the functionality of the Emerald viewers.  I, at Petr's suggestion, am going to try Kirsten's, just for my photography.  I tried it a while back, and wasn't happy, but he says that the graphics on the newest release are WONDERFUL!  He is a first rate photog in SL, so I'll take him at his word, and give it another shot, just for that purpose.  Eddi Haskell, over at his blog, also had a post that spoke highly of the graphics of Kirsten's, so it's worth a shot.
       Here's the link for the lastest I've seen on the Emerald fiasco: http://blog.modularsystems.sl/2010/08/22/emerald-resurgence/.

     Now, on to the important stuff!!  Last night, the semi-regular Drag Night was held at the Flying Handbag in Uthoriea.  OMG!!! I haven't had THAT much fun in ages!  Jarrod had a totally "drag oriented" set, except for some requests.... and the "ladies" looked fantastic!
     Tel, as Ms. Timeless Booty, took the first place honors, followed VERY closely by Joshy as Ms. Sofonda Cox!  (That hair I found, btw, is AMAZING!  I need to get some side pics... a fully functional Steampunk clock is made into it!)
     Darling, we were FABU, but then, ALL the ladies were!  I'm tellin' ya, this needs to be a biweekly event, so that more and more will come.... it is SO much fun!  Of course, though he didn't enter the contest, our own lovely Franzi(ne?) was-- I quote here--"forced"-- with about 30 seconds of arm twisting... heh-- to join in the fun and games.... Who knew the Tiger of  Tidra, one of the most fierce warriors in all of Gay Gor, had such a lovely set of pompoms?  *giggles*

All in all, it was one of the most enjoyable evenings I've had on SL in a long, long time.  Jarrod, Xzno,Joshy, Justy,Franzi, Alic, others that I don't know, but will never forget NOW, made it a true pleasure!  Lubs my "Ladies!!"  HAHAHAHA!

*Peace and Tucking*

  1. Emerald update, courtesy of Ziggy's blog (link on the right--->) and I stand corrected, Emerald was removed by LL, but with the full cooperation of the Emerald staff.
    "Emerald and the TPVD

    As many of you have heard, Emerald was removed from the TPVD yesterday. This removal was a result of recent actions by former Dev member Fractured Crystal. Fractured resigned from the team due to those actions and Emerald Dev Team has undergone a massive restructuring. We will be re-applying for the TPVD very soon, however there are some rumors and fears I think need to be addressed.

    Many people have heard that Emerald is banned or that users will be banned for using the Emerald Viewer. This is completely untrue.

    Linden Lab’s Third Party Viewer Directory is optional for third party viewers to apply for and join. It is not a requirement to be on the directory. What is a requirement however is that third party viewers respect the Third Party Viewer Policy http://secondlife.com/corporate/tpv.php. With the exception of the actions of Fractured recently, Emerald has always respected that policy and will continue to do so.

    While Emerald is not on the TPVD you can rest assured that this does not mean Emerald will be banned or blocked by LL, and you will certainly NOT be banned for using emerald.

    Sincerely, Jessica Lyon"
