Most of the anims move too quickly, but there is an option under the Debug menu (Client/Character/Slow Motion Animation, I think) that slows down the animations so you can take photos! So cool :)SLNataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11070563970057110480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36995751.post-38778018469349830252007-04-04T07:57:46.983-07:002007-04-04T07:57:46.983-07:00Nat:<BR/>I am so sorry for being out that time.<BR/>Again you give me a lesson of sportsmanship and fellowship.<BR/>Anyway, last photo is really amazing.<BR/><BR/>*hugs*Trouble Houstonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01872974236232323143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36995751.post-5862538962259313822007-04-01T21:06:20.282-07:002007-04-01T21:06:20.282-07:00Caterin, L'Oreal is a company, and they have a certain image in mind. I know they are not necessarily looking for well-made outfits, but a certain image. I just wasnt it...oh well :)<BR/><BR/>Lol I would be afraid of a Ms Mermaid comp! What would we wear for formal? :P<BR/><BR/>Encore, thank you so much! I didnt realize it had that effect. But I used a low lag AO script (Franimation with Flip Mod). I also went thru my poses every few minutes to keep them loaded and ready. That seems to improve rezzing time too! I have to remember that :)<BR/><BR/>And Encore, the show really did prove that we can do something spectacular in SL! I cant believe we fit 81 people in just 1 sim! Imagine if we did the show with 4 sims and a live video feed! :)<BR/><BR/>Lyndsey, thank you so much :) Heehee it was an interesting challenge, and I did learn a lot of things during the pageant, since they force you to do things you would not otherwise try. <BR/><BR/>Chloe, thank you! Im glad just to have the experience. And there is always something else later :) The casual outfit is cool! The belt came out really well. <BR/><BR/>Ana, yes, it was an interesting event. I cant wait to see the movie. (AWM said there was a preview already, so should have something soon!)<BR/><BR/>Alison, heehee thank you so much for your prayers and twisting! I tried my best, but they were very definitely looking for something different. <BR/><BR/>I am going over the outfits to see which I can put in the store, and how much tweaking is involved. I need to figure out what to do about the ruffles on the formal gown (they are pretty, but form-fitted to me, and would be hard to fit anyone else). I'll see if I can draw in the ruffles instead...<BR/><BR/>Tiana, this pageant really wasnt about the outfits. L'Oreal was looking for a particular face/model. I was not what they were looking for, so the clothes didnt matter. There is always something else later :)<BR/><BR/>Im sure my mom would *KILL* me if I do this again any time soon! I begged and pleaded and made all kinds of promises...So I have to lay off for a while :P<BR/><BR/>Isobelle, thank you :) I appreciate that, and I think I definitely fit the Miss SL title better. It is very interesting how your taste changes after spending time in SL... <BR/><BR/>Dear Anonymous, thank you so much. I am glad to have the experience and the outfits came out very well. So there is always next time :)SLNataliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11070563970057110480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36995751.post-72090632489525557652007-04-01T08:18:10.506-07:002007-04-01T08:18:10.506-07:00Sorry you didn't win Natalia.
