Here’s another random UI tip for you, this one discovered by McCabe Maxsted:

Drag and drop an inventory item into the IM window to send it to the person you’re IMing with. You don’t need to open their profile window! (This doesn’t work for group IMs, though.)

The next version of Imprudence will have a little reminder note in the IM window, but you can do this with any SL viewer right now!

The more you know!

You find out the darnedest things, looking through the viewer source code.

For example, if you Ctrl-click on a slider bar in the SL viewer (or Imprudence), it will reset that slider to its default value.

The more you know!

P.S. This is what a slider bar looks like:

An abstract sculpture I created on a whim. It’s 8 prims, created it in Blender in about 1 hour.

You can view it at my friend Skitty’s flower shop in Second Life. The sculpture is not for sale (but the pretty flowers are!).

The news is out — Squidograms are now for sale at Loco Pocos Island, too! Squidograms work great on Loco Pocos and regular avatars alike, and they’re definitely the most unique (and slimy-squid-surprise-smoochiest) kissogram around!

I’ve updated the Squidograms to be extra reliable, even in the face of lag and server troubles, which there seem to be no shortage of these days. And to really sweeten the deal, I’ve increased the bulk discounts to business-sense-shattering levels!

A single Squidogram is just L$50, and the recipient can hear your custom message (and get squid-smooched!) again and again, as many times as they want, forever and ever. Or buy a pack of 5 Squidograms for L$200, a savings of L$50 — that’s like getting another Squidogram for free! For an even bigger discount, head to Cuddlefish Junction and get a pack of 10 Squidograms for just L$350! Slimy cephalopod, Squidman — that’s like getting 3 for free! :o

So log in and head over to Loco Pocos Island to pick up some Squidograms (and maybe a cute new accessory or five)! Or drop by Cuddlefish Junction for a Squidogram 10-pack or any of our other fine products, including the handy-dandy Deliverator!

P.S. Don’t know what Loco Pocos are? You’re missing out! They’re hands-down the best tiny toon animal avatars in all of SL, and there are a ton of animals, clothing, and accessories to choose from. (And Damien keeps putting out new ones all the time! I don’t know how he does it, he’s like a cute-making machine. Does he ever sleep?!) Each avatar and item has a bunch of color options, so you can really customize your avatar to express your personality. You hardly ever see two Loco Pocos that look exactly alike. And yet they’re all so gosh-darned adorable!
