Annoying Second Life Profiles (Retro Post)
Contributed by Shauna Skye I was going through the SLFix archives, and found this post I made over a year ago. I thought it could use a good ressurrecting. It’s called . . . Annoying Second Life Profiles
Mod Squad Designs
Contributed by Shauna Skye Did you grow up in England in the 1960s? No? Well, that’s ok. You can dress like you did. But first, decide if you’re a mod or a rocker. Mod Squad Designs is a new store run by EdenSky Cortes and Kimberley Sixpence who create 60′s inspired mod clothing that would [...]
For Soulmates Only
Contributed by Paypabak Writer I’ve been meaning to write about my sister Pay’s Soulmate Ring for months! Or rather, to let her write about her ring and since there’s been a recent update to the ring scripts, this is the perfect time to do it! (And it’s a great antidote to the melancholy of my [...]
Gestures Right Out of Hell
Contributed by Shauna Skye Hellmaker Dreamscape, who creates ASCII art for Gestures Right Out Of Hell sent a personalized ASCII gesture for SLFix. It looks somewhat like this inworld (if the text comes out right on the web). .|”’| ‘|| ‘||””| |”||”| ‘\\ //` || || || . || \\// `|”’|, || ||”| || >< [...]
Penny Lane, A New Beatles Place
Contributed by Shauna Skye I was with Eggman earlier this week, and we went looking for a place with good music. Since Eggman is SL John Lennon, it was natural he would find Penny Lane. I was impressed by the place. It’s decorated nicely with Beatles, is colorful, and the fab four stream happily on [...]
Interview: Maddison Mokeev of Cloud 9.1
Contributed by Shauna Skye Maddison Mokeev has created some of the most detailed and realistic urban grunge builds in Second Life. The quality of the creations are top notch, and I would rank most up there with Arcadia Asylum and Tooter Claxton. On some of Maddison’s items, like the new couches and chairs, I believe [...]
SLFix’s Shauna Starts Music Site
Contributed by Shauna Skye I mentioned before I was in the planning stages of a new project that involved music, and yet wasn’t to do with my band, Blue Union. What was I talking about? It’s not officially open yet because there’s no content aside from some old archived interviews and a couple of posts; [...]
The Big Quiet
Contributed by Paypabak Writer The Big Quiet is what I call what happens when a Second Life friend fades away and you never hear from them again. I haven’t talked to anyone who has been in SL a decent period who doesn’t immediately know what I’m talking about. You just wonder and wonder . . [...]
Cutea Benelli Update
Contributed by Shauna Skye For those new to SLFix, I’ll fill you in: Cutea Benelli is one of my favorite creators in Second Life. She does everything from scary Halloween decor to grunge furniture and post apocalyptic clothes. Her items are twisted, creative, morbid, unexpected and ofttimes giggle-inducing. If you visit Low Prim & Grim [...]
Free Scooter
Contributed by Shauna Skye Attention Second Life mods. You’ll be thrilled to learn there’s a nice looking scooter at 10 Motorcycles–free. Yes, that’s right, zero lindens. I learned about this from the Fabulously Free in SL site. (Thanks!) I went to get one and the place was literally packed full. I’ll go back later to [...]
Library of Haiku
Contributed by Bunny Burnstein Haiku are fun and easy to write when you get the rhythm down. And nothing is more fun than the Library of Haiku. If you enjoy a good Haiku, you should check out this weekend’s events–maybe even submit a Haiku of your own. This weekend, the Shin Tao Haiku Retreat Blossom [...]
Crashing on Second Life Without a Helmet
Contributed by Shauna Skye The last couple of days I’ve been crashing like crazy on Second Life. Sometimes I don’t know I’ve crashed until I try to do something or type to speak to someone. I then discover I’m frozen (sometimes in a dance animation) and am not rightly sure for how long. Ok, so [...]
Your Name As a Gesture
Contributed by Shauna Skye I first heard the personalized name gestures used at 1960s mod club, The Twisted Wheel. People were greeting one another by name in little high voices. It sounded cute, and I was determined to have one of my own. It turns out Twisted Wheel manager anais Sciavo had been ordering the [...]

Gone, but not Forgotten
Contributed by Paypabak Writer This past week I learned that Svarga,Svarga is gone. One of the earlier “imagination park” type builds, it was a lovely place to take someone new to Second Life to show them what was possible. Beautiful waterfalls, soaring mountains, exquisite towers and walkways . . . now there are only memories. [...]
Happy Easter!
Contributed by Shauna Skye I’m too lazy busy to write anything today. It’s a holiday, after all. I’ll have something for you soon. In the mean time, Happy Easter!
Korova Droog Set
Contributed by Rotten Spitteler Hello my droogs. Today I wandered about relaxed, my thoughts as clear as an azure sky of deepest summer. On my journey I viddied some stylish platties. “I’ll have them right now,” I said to myself. Yet there’s Shauna, my sister, who is not one for spending the pretty polly. I [...]
Shop Barerose on the Web
BY EDITOR SHAUNA SKYE Barerose is one of my favorite clothing stores in Second Life. Their outfits are creative and range in styles from goth to Japanese. You won’t usually find outfits priced more than 150 lindens at Barerose, and they often come in several colors; so really, if you buy an outfit there you’re [...]
Lucky Chairs, Midnight Madness, Oh My!
Contributed by Paypabak Writer Oh, well, no one responded to my request for favorite Lucky Chair stores; even Shauna! Worse, I no longer have five favorite LC places because it appears that Sn@tch, in opening a new store, has left out lucky chairs, or I haven’t been able to find them yet. Of course, my [...]
New SLFix Headquarters
Contributed by Shauna Skye Yesterday I went looking for a new location for SLFix. I explored several places, and even had a sim owner offer me nearly free reign of a spot for no charge. A couple of friends IMed me offering to kindly put me up too, and yet, I realize renting and having [...]

Mods on Leashes
Contributed by Shauna Skye The Twisted Wheel is not a place where people dress in leather and spank you. Rather, it’s a sim set in 1965 England. And yet this is Second Life, and it’s not really 1965, so funnily some of the “1960s mods” can occasionally show you how MODern they really are. A [...]
Spring is in the Air Easter Hunt
Contributed by Shauna Skye AmberMyst Botanical Designs presents the “Spring Is In The Air” grid wide Easter egg hunt. It is being held from April 1st – April 30th, and will be showcasing new and small businesses in Second Life. Hunters are asked to wear low lag clothing. Outfits have been supplied if you need [...]
