Yep. That's me. Busy. It's that time of the year. Right before the semester begins is when I get all those instructors calling and emailing wanting assistance. No big deal. I've learned to make appointments with problem persons and can walk ANYONE through a process over the phone.

What is worse is that I need to get my class up and running! Am good to Week Seven...Out of Sixteen Weeks ;-D

SL Skin Mint Repeat...

2011-12-30T20:00:00.006-07:00

So...last month, I told you about SL Skin Mint.

I've been messing around with this some more and can say it is very quick and easy to create skins (and eyes).

Once the skins are created, designers have an option of setting sale prices for anyone to purchase.

All skins cost...Even yours...The creator deserves to make some income for this user-friendly application that allows creativity. Cheers to Roxy Chaney for her awesomeness ;-D

Check out the skins at the "Skin Mall". Here's one I created for an "Elf" outfit which you can find --->HERE<---.

If you like the skins, grab some credit and purchase a few. This will provide incentive for the creator to build the Male Version!

Never the Bride

2011-12-29T09:03:00.002-07:00

Casual Kicks 4

2011-12-27T12:59:00.003-07:00

Remember that post earlier where I stated, "Hope to take a few minutes out the next few days to build something new for The Happy Hat and The Marketplace"? Done!

The Fourth in the Casual Kicks series.

It's been a long time in coming; however, it's finally here. The shirt (INDDESS) and arm cuffs (Trendy Templates) are fantastic items from vendors in the Fashion 4 Builders Hunt!

Everything you see will be included in the package...including eye lashes! Keep your eye open. This one will be available by the new year.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

2011-12-25T09:07:00.001-07:00

Dio Doin' Christmas ;-D

2011-12-24T11:36:00.002-07:00

iTouch Fachion 4 Builders Hunt...

2011-12-23T08:34:00.009-07:00

Yep. Went through the inventory looking at GREAT gifts from vendors for the iTouch - Fashion 4 Builders Hunt. Found this cutie from Be Happy! You can find their Blog ---> HERE <---

Of course, Rah just has to change things up and made her own little skirt from a texture from yet another vendor, *PanCakeZ*

The Future...

2011-12-22T12:35:00.004-07:00

I see hunts in the future of The Happy Hat. There will not be as many as usual; however, there will be hunts.

Rah enjoys the people who show up and peruse the shop. Many are very kind and leave a support offering in the support hat. Some even purchase goodies!

Rah has a bit of Builder's Block right now though...Maybe some ideas on which gifts you enjoy best would assist Rah in what to build.

Oh...The image here is Rah's own. She gives permission to use; however, you must acknowledge the original creator!

I'll Be Back...

2011-12-20T23:13:00.004-07:00

I know...Excuses, excuses. No really. You know that community college class Rah teaches? It starts in January. Since Second Life has COMPLETELY CHANGED its client viewer...Guess who gets to create ALL NEW TUTORIALS...Yep. Me. It's time consuming. Am 1/3 of the way completes. Hope to take a few minutes out the next few days to build something new for The Happy Hat and The Marketplace. Wish me luck...

The "Oldest"...

2011-12-19T08:26:00.004-07:00

...Item on the Marketplace!

A fun and funky way to strut your stuff. Rah's "Casual Camo" includes the following items:

Hope you enjoy this very casual outfit! It will only run you L$29.

Don't forget to stop by The Happy Hat in-world!

Any comments are greatly welcome ;-)

Computer Hell!

2011-12-18T20:37:00.002-07:00

Yes. The computer and I have been having our battles these days.

I have fixed pretty much everything...and may have found the initial cause of the malfunctions.

This will have to wait until tomorrow for I am tired and grouchy right now...and in need of a strong drink!

See you all "in-world" another day.

As always...Thanks for Listening.

An Academic Moment...

2011-12-16T12:37:00.005-07:00

As many of you know (or may now know), Rah's physical world revolves around Higher Education.

Today, a PhD major, searching for information for their dissertation, interviewed Rah. This has been her second interview for educational purposes. This is exciting for her!

She was able to express how Second Life can be used for education. Rah was even able to describe the trials and tribulations she suffered while bringing virtual environments to the educational institution.

Thanks for listening ;-D

Top Seller...

2011-12-15T14:13:00.002-07:00

...No Rating

This FREE item is the Top Seller on the The Marketplace. Sales are 690 as of this post! Yet...Not one person has said "Thank You" or "It Sucks" or "Great Price".

Yes. I know. Sometimes it takes me a while to get my comments in for purchases I have made. I usually rate after I use the item(s).

What's probably bad is that I only rate those I like...or that work for me. Is that worse to not give any rating or to rate at a low score?

Anyhoooooooooo. Please rate this item (and others) if you purchased. I learn from these comments. Thanks for listening...

Stop by The Happy Hat and purchase a small item.

Much appreciated...

The Marketplace...

2011-12-14T11:58:00.004-07:00

Do not forget!

The Happy Hat is also online via The Marketplace.

Deals are far better in-world; however, the items stay longer online.

Either way, I hope you find something you need and/or want.

Please leave comments and rate when purchasing on The Marketplace.

Come by...

2011-12-13T06:14:00.003-07:00

You can come by the store HERE

Music Stream Follow-Up...

2011-12-11T09:13:00.003-07:00

Don't know how to add music to your parcel?

When at home, right click on the ground, select "About Land".
This option can also be found under the Menu:
World > Place Profile > About Land

Next select the "Sound" Tab.

Copy your Music Stream URL from wherever you have saved the information. I keep a Notecard...

Paste this into the Dialogue Box under "Music URL" and select Enter on the keyboard.

Once the music starts, Close the Dialogue box by selecting the "x" in the corner.

That's all there is to it.

Enjoy ;-D

Music Streams

2011-12-10T08:21:00.009-07:00

When searching for Music Streams in Second Life, I get a little miffed at so many sites which offered streams that no longer work!

I finally started going through stream after stream found on these sites. If the music did not play within six seconds after hitting enter, I scratched the link.

This is the list of streams which resulted from the endeavor.

The genres may be off a bit due to placing according to the song playing at the moment.

It is not uncommon for a month later to have a link which no longer work...
Be prepared.

I hope you enjoy...You can always leave support at The Happy Hat to encourage me to continue this endeavor ;-D

Lost in the Inventory...

2011-11-27T10:57:00.002-07:00

So...Rah started cleaning her inventory...again...

First and foremost, she wanted to get all the hunt gifts into a folder. This is in case she would ever need them again. You know, maybe at gift giving time...around Christmas.

Anyway...To make a long story short. Out of all the gifts given at hunts, she only lost two!

One was a from the D is for Deviant hunt. Bummer. That was a pretty cool coffin couch!

The other, was from the second Black Pearl hunt. How long ago was that? What did she give? Shoes? Hat? Oh well...

Not too bad for how many hunts Rah has created gifts for.

Thanks for listening...

It felt great to be thanked for a gift. That was so thoughtful and Rah greatly appreciated it!

So a shout out to Nickki...

She is a creator in-world and in the physical world. Here's a YouTube video on her "stuff" (CLICK HERE).

Her shop is located HERE (<--Click there).

Thank you Nickki for your thoughtfulness.

Sneak Peek...

2011-11-20T11:35:00.004-07:00

Been working on hunt gifts like crazy lately. If you have read any of the older posts, you know this is starting to really irk me.

Anyway...Started building for the Broken Resolution Hunt. Of course, I started with a hat. Then I threw in some boots. Next stop would be an actual "broken resolution".

First thought was smoking. Everyone breaks that one. Even created a cigarette and smoking action. I just could not go through with it. This is one act I have kicked...So....what to do...

Weight gain. We all have it; unless, you are one of those with great metabolism. Thus came the shapes for weight gain. Don't see too many large, double chinned avies in Second Life!

Sure, you'll see a big-ass woman here and there...but...not like this...

Thanks for listening...

Under My Skin

2011-11-18T11:16:00.005-07:00

So...I've been playing around with all aspects of Second Life these days. Working with creating sculpts, textures, hair, clothes...and even skin.

I love the templates found by Eloh Eliot. These have been very fun to work with. Very nice quality.

I had a little insomnia last night...errrrr...this morning and found a few sites with skin generators. I started playing around with the SL Skin Mint one. It was very easy to work with.

Here are my "insomnia" creations (http://www.slskinmint.com/members.php?id=568).

It does not cost to create the skins; however, it does cost to save them...AND...others are welcome to purchase the skins for a small credit.

You can even create the eyes! They are too white for me. I'll have to play around in Photoshop to give them some bloodshot looks ;-D

I did upload two of these skins (and eyes) to Second Life to see how they look. Not too bad. There definitely is a difference on the skins "but" oh! the possibilities!

If you'd like to compare skins created from SL Skin Mint and Eloh Eliot templates, send me a notecard...

Hunt Damage...

2011-11-13T10:04:00.009-07:00

Yes. Thought it would never happen "BUT" I have HUNT DAMAGE!

It stems from too many hunts. It sucks really. Being a vendor has become work instead of enjoyment.

Each hunt I am involved, there is a new gift (or gifts) created. Then comes the process of photographing and creating images for these gifts.

Next is packing and hiding. Then a weekly move of the hiding spot. It has taken its toll upon me. It has even taken away from what The Happy Hat keeps in stock! Much less the complaints from hunters!!!

Yes. Hunters have complained to me; even threatened me with harsh words. Can you believe that?! Crap for a FREE GIFT! People...TAKE YOUR MEDS!

I was shocked on the first message. The last just pissed me off and thus the result of HUNT DAMAGE. Yes, I'm coining the phrase.

I've decided to stay with a MAXIMUM of three Hunt Vendors. It's been a TOUGH DECISION. In fact, I have two for sure and am still up in arms about the third...So many groups have provided great hunts and I LOVE being a part of this!

I like working with <;(-_0)>; Hunts and Shizz and Sour Pickles. They have been wonderful and understanding. The conundrum comes with a third choice. Do I stay with iTouch, Freaky.:kyoot:., or A to Zari?
PLEASE NOTE HERE: These are just a few on the list!!! This is a tough decision.

I guess the real question would be, will these wonderful people allow me to continue to carry on as I have? Will they keep on keeping on? How long can I keep up with them?!

If you are on and have a thought, please comment. I'd love to hear from you...

Thanks for listening...
