New release ... finally!!!

Well, as many of you know I have moved in real life. This is the reason for no new release in the last 6 weeks. So finally I have settled in some and I have been able to create a new style for us. This one is named Cupcake. It's flexy cuteness in pony tails. Available in all 10 Naturals and in 8 Fantasy shades in my store in Dixie today. Look for 2 new men's styles next week and (hopefully) 1 for the ladies. Hope to see you in Dixie soon. Come say I've missed yall so much! As a sidenote, I will be accepting the new resident voucher starting November 1st. If you, or someone you know was 'born' September 4th or later go ahead and get your voucher at the Free Dove and submit them on the 1st. I will be ready to tackle those again.

Misfit for the guys...

New today is Misfit. It's a total step away from my usual designs and I really enjoyed making this one. It was suggested a while back by my boyfriend and I spend a lot of time getting it just right. So I am pleased with the results finally and ready to release it to the store. As always it comes in 10 natural colors and available by request in 8 fantasy colors, (as do all my styles). Just drop me a notecard named !Color request and I'll get it done for you. Hope you enjoy this one and as a sidenote: Ladies do you think this one will work for us? If I have enough interest I'll be glad to make it smaller for the ladies and put it out. I'd love feedback! Come see me in Dixie ;) Hugs!!

A picture is worth a thousand words.
Proof is priceless

Another day in SL...Another theif

I always intended to keep personal things out of my blog. I wanted it to remain design related. While this is personal, it's also design related so I've deicded to post and let those of you who check here for new releases, see something that has been going on. It's come to my attention that someone is selling a copy of one of my designs. I wan't going to post his name because I didn't want to make drama but after this past evening and his continued lies and refusal to remove my hair, added with the fact that he has at least one other stolen design he's selling with MY textures on it, I decided that all's fair. So his name is Micheal Kingsford. I've repeatedly asked him to stop, (for over 3 weeks now), he either says ok and stops for a while, then puts them back into his store, or he lies and never takes them out at all after telling me he will. He even went so far as to take them out for a week or so. I thought the issue was over, but sadly I found out yestrday he has them back out again. He's been spoken to by others as well. To no avail. He claims Linden Lab told him he is not doing anything wrong and they said it's ok for him to resell. When asked to produce proof (ie: forward the so called email), he stopped responding. So I decided to make public so those of you who help new residents will shy away from his so called new resident help store, and avoid him at all costs. He also has a custom motorcycle store. So if you like to ride choppers in SL please avoid these as well. I am going to include pictures in this post so you can see the designs and hopefully this will prevent more sales for him. Design theft is something that we see more and more in SL on a daily basis lately. It sickens me. I hate seeing someone taking something we as designers put our heart into and then just blatantly reselling with no morals, no remorse and sadly so far, no consequences. I abhor lazy people like this and hope that you too will avoid doing any business with these type of people. It should be noted he has an entire store of items that are likely stolen as well along with freebies also. This hair is so obviously my design and texture no one will deny this man is a lazy theif. I hope you will stand behind myself and other designers, sadly far too many of them, and refuse to be a patron at any of these type of stores. Let's stand together and show the lazy theives that we are interested in quality, honesty and most of all supporting those who try to help make SL a better place with their designs. Thank you for reading my rant.
Update: I spoke with Tigerlily Koi. It was her men's hair that he copied and used my texture on. I guess he thought no one would notice. He thought wrong. So he's taken her design down but mine remains. Which leads me to believe her's will return shortly. It's his pattern. I hate that she was feeling so good about him taking it down on her blog This guy seems to think he's invincible. I hope we are able to show him he's not.

Here is my design.


Here is the one he is selling. An older version of the same hair that I recently updated.


Here is a mens hair we have confimed is copied from Calla Hair with my texture.


And here is the screen shot of the hair properties clearly showing it's my design he's reslling. Click on the image to see clearly the properties box where it states I am the creator of the hair he's selling.
