Petite Size Comparer

How tall is tall? How small is small? There are so many brands of Petites in Second Life it is hard to decide what one is best for you. So I decided to build a petite size comparer and put it in my Avatar information section. In front of the Kitaro Museum of Art and Antiquities and 1L$ Store and Aquarium fish store 

Because of how Petites work you can't use a scripted height detector.

The only way to do it is make a prim the exact size as the avatar

Move it up just a bit each time

Till the top of the head is just covered

You have to drag it up and not adjust the numbers

A few it took a bit more because they keep moving

I used demo versions for many

Some have there ground offset a bit off

For them I had to make sure the feet were just covered and then the head

Position adjust repeat  


The finished project :)
 I plan to do a review of each of these so look for them

Another oops

When building the petite size comparer that I will show in the next post I had another oops.

Free petite avatar

You may have noticed the ZooKeeper is a petite in one of her forms. While most petites avatars cost between L$700 and L$1200 there is a free one available inworld. 
ZooKeeper fairy Minikin



















This great item was made posable by Caverna Obscura there store can be found here Caverna Obscura it can be found in the petite section (use the transporter inside the front door) you want to look for a wall vendor that looks like this: 

Minikin

There are 2 versions 0.4 and 0.3. They are called Minikin. The avatar comes with everything you need to make your self a petite including skin tinting and a hud to change your camera view. Clothes, wings, and hair are not included but they do have 4 boxes on the floor below some basic under wear and bikinis to start you out but even better then that they also give you some free untextured mesh forms for you to make your own clothes. In a future blog I will show how you can make your own clothes, wings, and hair. 

I also plan to put some stuff for free out in the avatar information area at my Kitaro dollar store. Also a great way to thank Caverna Obscura is to buy an outfit from them (most are around L$400). This is a great thing they are doing for the SL community. 

ZooKeeper


My Family photo was a bit old and missing a few of my Alts so I decided to update some of them. Here is zooKeeper is all her current forms.

Something is not right here

Is it add to, replace current, or something else? Charles Rob Darwin was evolving or was this the missing link?

Abandoned Land

After a year a lot has changed a lot of places I want before are now abandoned land. I dropped more times today it became a game to see if I could delete the landmark and teleport out before hitting the ground.
