Elephante Poses events!

Today I am doing something a bit different! 

If you read my blog you know that I roleplay in a sim called Crack Den. The sim is urban roleplay and my character is a gang member there. So, while I can have a wide range of clothes for her, there are some outfits I simply cannot wear while being In Character. Since I make a point of wearing at least once all the clothes I purchase before buying new ones I was a bit at loss as to what to do with those outfits.

That is why today I am doing a mix of taking pretty picture with awesome outfits while telling you about some events Elephante Poses is participating in.

Elephantes Poses is currently in those different events that you should check out!
And in the pictures below I am using poses from said events. Some are never to be sold again so be sure to go grab them!

The Green Reaper


I know I wear a looooot of green in my outfits, but as you might have noticed, green is the color Esmeralda's gang so it matches quite well!

And it is also my favorite color!

Too much


So my look of today made me think of Baby Spice and therefore sent me in a Spice Girls marathon! I have been abusing You Tube and listening to sooooo many good old tunes! My favorite one from them is Too Much, but they have so many good songs that it is hard to pick!

My taste in music has changed from when I was a teen (duh!) but listening to some Spice Girls still makes me happy!

Rock my soul


I only have one week left before leaving for holidays with my family! Yeeepeee! While I cannot wait to see them all and enjoy the pool/sea, I am a bit sad to leave SL behind, asstupid as that may sound. Especially my friends there since I will not have access to the Internet.

But it will make for an even better reunion at least!

When I'm missing you


Lately my character is going through a rough patch in her story and I feel that it is impacting me as her player more than I would have thought. I have been moody and not really as friendly as I am usually. Overall, since I have started roleplaying in SL, I find that detaching yourself from your character is the hardest part. Especially when they are going through bad stuff and getting hurt.

It is also quite interesting and making me grow as a RPer I think!

The screams in my head


Do you ever feel like you want to scream out loud but your momma taught you better? Some people, some attitudes that just rub you the wrong way. But you also know it won't help any to actually unleash the voices.

So you scream in your head and hope that things change for the best.

Nightcall


I'm back from a week-end back home and it was good to see my family again! My sister had me working all day on the house she is building with her husband but at least I got to see them all. It was a good time!

That, and the BBQ we had was pretty awesome too!

I wanna scream and shout


Poor Esmeralda is getting her first scars today! She went to confront one of her fear and ended up with a cut cheek and fear still deeply anchored. Maybe one day she won't be so afraid anymore, but today is not that day.

What, what?


Lately I have a friend that cannot stop singing the lyrics of Macklemore's Thrift Shop to me. It's maddening! Thankfully she recently found a new version of the song that I like waaaaaaay better:

I'm gonna catch some thugs.. 
Only got batarangs in my pocket..
I'm-I'm-I'm huntin'
Looking for the Joker. 
This is fucking Gotham.

The Punisher


One of the part I enjoy the most when coming up with an outfit is trying to see what kind of clothes I will be able to combine together, even though they are in totally different styles. I think I managed to pull it off with this outfit but... I'm not entirely sure either!

As for the shadows chronicles, it's not completely resolved, as the keen eyed might notice. If I zoom away like in the picture above, the shadows on my avatar are perfect but the one on the background is blurry. But for now, I'll take it!

Mystery solved!


So if you have been reading this blog you know I have issues with my shadows in SL. In my blog of yesterday I saw a possible solution to the bug and it seems it was the right one!
Basically, ever since I've had my new computer I have been pushing all the options to the max, including draw distance. This did not seem to be an issue previously (except that I needed to find the right angle for my shadows) but ever since the new update even that did not work.

Today I tried lowering my draw distance and with a draw distance set to 96 I don't even have to shift my camera around to find the right angle for my shadows! Hopefully it remains that way!

Still in the shadows


Once again my character has to cling to the shadows. The police department in the city I roleplay in has declared that all of the members of her gang have to be arrested on sight. While she can't make herself part with her gang rag she still is trying to cover her face so the cops that know her don't recognize her while driving by.
Of course it might just draw more attention to her.

And speaking of shadows, somehow mine are back to being borked again... The only thing I remember that I might have changed between yesterday and today is draw distance, so I'll try to reduce that tomorrow and see if it changes something or not.

Not Gonna Die Tonight


My character has been having quite the eventful week! Got caught dealing and tried to flee and fight but the cops ended up getting her in the end. Ergo the bruises.

She ain't feeling so safe now. Ergo the weapons.

How I needed you


I am still as crisp as a piece of bacon, thanks to my sunburns from the festival, but at least I get to stay in since my contract ended last week! So far I'm still in the 'I don't really realize that it happened' phase but I think the realization might hit soon.

Thankfully, I have my head full of tunes to keep my mind busy with happy thoughts, including the gorgeous song I will link below. This was one of my favorite bands of the festival!

The Festival


I came home during the night from Sunday to Monday from the music festival I went to during the week-end and I'm still waaaaaay tired! It was just amazing! Three days of laughing, dancing and music with awesome friends. I have the sunburn to end all sunburns but it was so worth it!

I haven't come up with my outfit for the day yet; instead, I wanted to take a picture with the dress I was wearing while goofing off with a friend last time I was online. Somehow, when I don't make my "usual" posts I want to take the pictures in a different setting. So I went to the destination guide and ended up in Hazardous. The sim is gorgeous and definitely worth a visit!

Inventory diving


If you read my random ramblings, you know that I try to keep a very organized inventory, keeping all the new stuff I haven't worn yet in a folder called "New Stuff" (very original, I know).
Anyway, I've decided some things have been there a whiiiiiiiiile! So I'm trying to not buy new stuff until I've worn everything in there. Gives me a chance to discover some old favorites like those tops!

On an unrelated note, since today's Firestorm update my shadows seem to be mostly back to normal. Which is kinda strange since the update was on an entirely different matter. But I'll take what I can get! I still have to play with my camera a lot to get the shadows to pop up, but at least the camera can be on the front of my avatar!
