Strike A Pose

I know what you’re thinking. And you’re right, that is the most obvious title I could possibly have come up with. The truth is, Lawless McBride gave me a great title. I’m just not creative enough, nor talented enough, to segue it into an introduction that doesn’t dissolve into potty humor, so I had to *cough* flush it. Lack of creativity and talent, though, are certainly not issues for Dove Swanson of Long Awkward Pose. I recently met Dove and Law at their treehouse for a little chat.


Dove came to SL in October of 2006, so she has seen some pretty amazing changes come along. Is there anything that stands out - good or bad - as the biggest change?
Dove Swanson: Hmm. Voice at first ...I was totally opposed to it, felt like it would change the game for the worse. But then I got over that silly mentality and embraced it - I'm glad I did, because I spend probably every minute on SL in a private voice conference with Law anyway. So yeah, I would count that as a big, and good change.

Windlight was pretty neat at first, the concept anyway....but now I think it's one of those side projects they spend too much time on improving when THIS client is still total shit. Can I say shit?
You can say shit :) This is a mature Blog…lol
Dove Swanson whews.
I was totally excited about sculpties too ...first time I heard about it on the blog I went "oh my god, that's going to change SL as we know it" ..and I [love] sculpties :D


And there are a few changes that haven’t been so great and actually limit a business owners ability to provide the kind of service their customers deserve. According to Dove, there are “tons of little nitpicky things too ....the group limit and it's many glitches ....transactions history ....lack of support for bad transactions and so on. [It] kinda takes alot of power out of our hands and leaves us helpless most of the time when it comes to our customers." Even with those challenges, I’m sure you will find that Dove, like so many content creators, goes out of her way to help her customers.

Let's talk about the products Dove offers at [LAP]. When asked why she chose to focus on poses, I learned that Dove used to do photography in SL. “…and after I got burnt out on photoshop” she says, “I remember thinking about how I used to say ‘gosh, this pose would be perfect IF...’ or ‘I wish this pose was a tiny bit different.’ And I thought, ‘I'm sure alot of other photographers/graphics artists in SL think the same thing at one point or another, maybe I could do something about that.’"

According to Dove, the progression from photography to posemaking seems very natural and she is confident that many of the current photographers will be making their own poses in the future.

It seems the truly creative people are the ones who see a need for something and just create it...like you've done...I'm so jealous of that skill and talent.
Dove Swanson: I am jealous of so many people's skills, trust me. lol If I could make clothes instead of poses, I probably would. Or hair. Or build even. I envy those talents and skills! Just so happened that pose making seemed to be something that I was actually good at - still surprises me to this day because I don't really think I am ...but I guess so. I look at them and I think "hmm, could be better" ...maybe that's just the perfectionist in me talking - but then people like you will say this sort of thing and it makes me all warm and fuzzy and sometimes I have to let myself believe that maybe I found my calling :D


I want to see how I turn out at animating ...that's my next big project. I will create a whole animation ...think that it's okay ...upload it ...test it out ....keep trying it for like a week - and then I trash it because it's just not right or good enough. So I've been practicing and hope to fine-tune my skills (or lack of)...


Where do you find inspiration for your poses?
Dove Swanson: Oh lordie, all over the place! For specific sets ..like the themed ones? Geisha, Faery, etc...I will usually search out photos or art of that sort of thing with google. For my model/normal everyday poses I very very often rely on magazines ...I'll even be flipping through a People magazine sometimes and go "OH! I like that pose! I could do that!" and voila. lol I use Maxim alot for the sexy/dramatic poses.




Law has been helping to inspire my more recent men's work ...I think it really helps to have his male input on them ...as it probably shows in my first and second set versus the latest stuff which in my opinion is way better than the early work. He will clip magazine ads and scan them in for me ...or find pictures on the web and show me and sometimes he just verbally describes it for me and I give it a whirl and we fine-tune it together.

I noticed your latest release includes some props (yay!) have you got more in the works?

Dove Swanson: Yay 4 finishing the prop work! LOL That was bit of a headache and more of a task than I thought it would be. I was originally just going to make poses for the props and just sell them that way. But then I thought how annoying that would be for the end-user and so I had to find a script, which took days, then I had to mod it, which took more days, and test it and so on ...then I was finally done and you know, I actually am excited by the possibilities it opened up. I really do want to work with more props - I've had some offers from people...which is good since, unfortunately, I'm still NOT a builder at all. LOL I will have to probably always rely on the kindness of others to let me use their work in combination with my work. I would love to do some chair/wall/rail work though. I've always always wanted to do a tire-swing set...and to script it now that I have that technique would make it so much more fun.

So you collaborated with Laynie on this recent set. Any more collaborations in the works?
Dove Swanson: yes I did, Laynie is a sweetie. There are some more possible collaborations in the works...but nothing solid yet, so I can't say :D I imagine in the future, since it would become difficult to work out pricing schemes between props and poses, my work will just be commissioned and sold to the creators of the props (or objects rather, since some are not just photo props).
So Law helps you work through some of the men's poses...does he participate in other aspects of the business as well?
Dove Swanson: Oh yeah...he participates in almost every step of the male poses now. From inspiration, to actually being the avatar they are tested/adjusted on, to modeling them for ads and so on. He also is the resident "door greeter" aka: flirt. lol He likes to think he schmoozes all my lady customers :D Plus he just plain ol' puts up with me grumping over poses when they aren't going how I want them to....stands around watching me work on them for hours - he's really very patient. lol He inspires quite a bit of my couple's pose work now too. Hehe, I guess that's to be expected. They're fun, I tend to be a little goofy with mine sometimes. heh. I try not to take myself *too* seriously.

Any hints as to what we can look forward to from LAP in the next couple of weeks or months?
Dove Swanson: Ooooo ...:D I've already got more male poses on the table in progress....some themed sets also that were requested "special order" ....I want to break into the wedding side of things a bit - do a whole collection, from couples poses, to singles, to props even - all wedding themed. And of course, as I've been promising, animations and AO sets. I think actually, that I am going to start gearing my pose releases to be better made for AOs - slowing the transition on them, lowering the priority ...so that they can easily be added and used in AOs, or photo studios - whichever you prefer.


That sounds so interesting...I'm really excited about the direction you are going and I'm sure you are too.
Dove Swanson: Me too! It will be fun I think :D or I will kill myself in the process. Either/or... exciting. LOL

Anything thing you want to add?
Dove Swanson: Just ...probably want to say thanks to all of my wonderful customers ....you guys keep me keeping on ...you guys inspire me to keep making poses and learning new ways to better my "craft" ...and you guys make me want to be a better business person in SL ...that's why I try to maintain lower prices and return the favor in the form of freebies and gifts. So yeah, thanks! :D

Thanks so much, Dove...this has been great
Dove Swanson: Thanks Gabby! My first interview-thingy :D yay




Dove has a huge and varied collection of poses for sale at her BelleStar location...and the prices couldn't be more reasonable...run, don't walk, to Long Awkward Pose.

What are you waiting for? I said go! Now! Happy Posing!

I used the new Ladder and Circle props for several of these pictures and Pyper and I played around in Dove's store for the the rest...Thanks, Pyp, for helping out :)

Of Excellence In Customer Service

Because I am, as you know, a confessed shopaholic, I have the opportunity to meet and interact with designers from all over the grid everyday...just as I am sure many of you do. I have my favorites, of course, but by and large the majority of content creators that I meet go out of their way to be exceedingly kind and helpful. The past couple of days have provided three illustrations of how customer service in Second Life should be and I wanted to share my experiences with you.


This past weekend, I became a Storm Schmooz fan...and until this week, I had never even slipped my size zero tootsies into a pair of his shoes. You see, while wandering the grid with Guy, he mentioned how he would like to find a new pair of shoes. I remembered seeing some great men's dress shoes at Storm's shop and tp'd us there. After hemming and hawing a bit, I finally sauntered over to the gift vendor and purchased a pair of Men's Black High Gloss...which Guy, not knowing what I was up to, promptly declined. (Who declines shoes?!? Must be a man thing.) The following day, I sent a notecard to Storm, explained to him my dilemna...which, mind you, he had no obligation to fix, the product had been delivered properly, the recipient just didn't accept it. Within moments, my Guy was wearing a brand new pair of Men's Black High Gloss shoes. Storm could not have been more gracious, more understanding or more quick to fix my problem. So, right then and there, I vowed to snatch up some Storm Schmooz shoes of my own...and I've got the pictures to prove it.



One of these days I will learn to read the Official SL Blog before setting off to do some major damage to my Linden bank account. Alas, it seems I'm always a few steps behind. I made a quick stop at the Relay For Life Summer sim (more on RFL in an upcoming post) to pick up a couple of items that I knew I wanted right away. One of them was the Q-T Pie dress by Kiana Dulce. I donated the required amount, but the dress was not delivered. Eh, probably just the lag, so I wandered around a bit more, picked up another outfit and it was delivered, so I thought, "oh goodie, I'll run back and get that dress at Kiana's booth." I donate the required amount (yes, I made a second donation, RFL is near and dear to me...I'll make lots of donations during the event...whether there is an item attached or not), but again, the item is not delivered. I sent a notecard to Kiana, who accepted it as soon as she logged in and sent over the item right away...turns out there was a problem with the donation kiosk. She was kind and gracious and professional...I can't wait to visit her booth, and her store, again.



Lastly, you all know I am a crazy about Iota Ultsch of Tres Jolie (see my previous post here). Her latest release, Chasm, really caught my eye, so I ran over to pick it up. Sigh, it also wasn't delivered. I dropped a quick notecard to Iota, who tp'd me back to her store as soon as she logged on and a few moments later, I am wearing Chasm in Steel (and it is a fabulous!) In case I failed to mention, Iota is a ton of fun to chat with and is always filled with great information. Oh, and by the way...the smashing number at right is her latest release, Tigress. Absolutely stunning in person with a fabulous little brooche that settles right into the plunging neckline. Had to throw that one in just for fun.


So, what is the proper way to communicate a non-delivered item or problem with a transaction to a designer? (Hint: This is not it!) First, read their profile. Many designers will list their policies there or on their Picks tab. Find out how they want to be contacted and follow their instructions. Second, if there are not instructions or policies listed, put all of the pertinent information in a notecard. Content creators get alot of IMs and if they are offline, those IMs get capped. A notecard is the best way to communicate with them in a professional manner. What is the pertinent information? I have found that this format works best for me: Title the notecard with the Issue and Your Name, ie. Item Not Delivered - Gabby Panacek. List in the notecard your proof of purchase from your transaction history. This is important! It shows the designer that you did indeed pay for the item and that the $L were deducted from your account. Finally, be kind...it goes along way on the grid, and you will find that more people are willing to assist you if you approach them openly, honestly and politely.


Okay, that's all for now...happy shopping. Look for more this week about Relay for Life, Long Awkward Pose, and much more!

A Rose By Any Other Name

During a recent shopping spree, I was searching the grid for a scarf to go with a coat that I had just purchased...and having no luck. That is, until I ran into Rose Farina, who pointed me in the right direction. After chatting with her for a bit, I learned that Rose is the creative force behind Rose Petal Creations. Being the generous soul that she is, she graciously offerered me a landmark and gift certificate to her store.

Read my interview with Rose and see some of her designs after the cut.

Gabby: Okay, lets get the easy stuff out of the way. When did you begin your Second Life?
"September 16, 2005"

What was your first day on SL like?
"In one word... it was overwhelming... everything was so amazing! It was so vast and so much to see that I couldn't decide what to do. That was two years ago.... can't even imagine what it would be like as a newbie now."

I can only imagine how much things have changed in the year and a half that you have been here. Did you always know that you had something creative to offer SL? How did you come to be a designer?

"No, actually it was about 6 months later that I first rezzed a prim, I was sure it would be to hard and complicated for me! I started designing several months after that, mostly because so much of what I wanted couldn't be found at the
time."

Tell us about some of the people who have offered advice and guidance along the way.

"One of the first people I met in SL was Nonna Hedges, I don't see her as often now as I once did but she taught me quite a bit in those early days about working hard and being kind to new people.

June Dion is a great friend now... I can remember when she had 10 outfits... I know... amazing isn't it? LOL She offers amazing detailing on all that she does and then sells them so cheaply. She gives so much to everyone around her at the same time. When I first started designing I said I wanted to have the same spirit.

Simone Stern who caught me wandering her store once and I told her I had been proud of my latest creations and came there to remind myself that I really suck after all and have a long ways to go. Simone told me to never give and to keep trying... and here I am.

The most credit, although I hate to admit, goes to my ex partner ... who once helped me believe in myself and saw my potential."

What inspires your creations?
"So very many things! Books I've read, ads on tv, the latest theme at one of the clubs I hang out at that I don't have a costume for already!"

You put so much into your work, how long does it typically take for you to see a new design through from concept to release?

"That really just depends... some are easier... some are pains pains pains lolol."

What recommendations do you have for anyone that wants to get into the fashion business?

"Don't think that just because someone out there doesn't like your items that no one will. Tastes are far flung in here, it doesn't make yours any less better...it's just different than what they are wanting ATM."

Who is your favorite designer? RL and SL

"Carolina Herrera. In SL it just depends on the type of clothes really :)"

When you are not working, who do you spend the most time with in-world?
"My partner and friend Rezago Kokorin... SL artist, amazing man. Who honestly believes in me whole heartedly and helps me in anyway he can."

What types of things do you like to do outside of SL?

"Spend time with my kids! I'm a single mommy of 4...a job takes up a lot of time. :)"

As you can see from the pictures posted here, Rose's designs run the gamut from classic, fun and flirty dresses in vibrant colors to formal eveningwear and enchanting fairy outfits with wings.

Also at Rose Petal Creations, you will find an assortment of costumes perfect for club theme nights, just as Rose mentioned in her interview, some classy business-like attire and a even a couple of games, Lino and On-A-Roll, where you can hang out with your friends for an evening of friendly competition.

Be sure to visit Rose Petal Creations in-world or check out Rose's blog for information about her latest releases.

Until next time...happy shopping!

RPC Mera - Black and Purple Miniskirt with Stockings, Belt with Flower and Bangles

Friendship Week At caLLie cLine

"A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg...
even though he knows that you are slightly cracked."
- Bernard Meltzer

It is friendship week at caLLie cLine and what a fun week it has been so far! Last night, I popped in to pick up the Day Three gift and, of course, shop around a little bit (I managed to exercise a bit of self-control for once, but I know it won't last the week, so you can be sure there is a CC shopping spree in my very near future). As is the norm in caLLiefornia, you can't stop in without making a new friend (or five) because all of the girls in the Cal Gal group are just so amazing! Taking advantage of the poseballs caLLie has set out, Joonie, Sky2, Kurvy, Chanteusse, Clover and I set about creating our pyramid (that's me at bottom center). I think I need to find a good chiropractor.



If you haven't yet joined the Cal Gal group, now is the time! And not just because caLLie is so generous (though I gotta tell you, she lavishes gifts on this group like no other I am, or have been, a member of), but she is also an amazing designer. I simply can't resist picking up each new release and by now, I think I own almost all of the first floor.

Big hugs to caLLie and all of the Cal Gals for making this the best week ever...you all rock!

Oh...and one last thing...I was playing around with a black and white skin that I picked up from La Sylphide at the Rue d'Antibes sim opening, so I took a couple of pictures and sent them to Tucor, who added a little lighting effect to come up with this finished product. Here is a different take on the Fun in the Sun Dress, Fat Belt and matching bracelet that was the Day 2 gift.


What I'm wearing:
Dress: Fun In The Sun (Friendship Week Day 2 Gift) - Callie Cline
Shoes: Stiletto Moody Pumps (Color Change Version) - Stiletto Moody
Skin: Liliana Black and White-Noir - La Sylphide
Hair: Davina II in Black - ETD

Cure For The Blues

This past Sunday, I was feeling a little blue...Guy wasn't online yet, Pyper was nowhere to be found, Tucor was busy building his Lunar Landing and my inventory was just sitting there glaring at me, begging to be organized in some way. So, what's a girl to do? Why, go shopping, of course! I logged into my reader and checked out some of the blogs that I hadn't kept up with over the weekend and decided to visit the Gossip Girl Street Fair, based on a tip I picked up in the SL Free*Style blog. While wandering through the vendor's booths, I came across Rebel Hope. My eye instantly went to the stunning blue gown on the back wall. I immediately decided that this deep blue, sparkling confection would go a long way toward curing my Sunday Night Blues...I was not disappointed.

As if by magic, the instant I purchased the dress, Guy appeared online. I teleported home to show him my new dress and let's just say that his response erased any lingering blues that might have been hanging around. After adding a few accessories, Guy whisked me away for an evening of dancing aboard the RMS Titanic. (Another fantastic build...don't miss the poseballs at the bow of the ship for recreating the movie's iconic image.)

After dancing and exploring on deck, we decided to teleport to another dance venue where we encountered my old friend Ted and his lovely Ashby. ::waves:: It is always so nice to unexpectedly run into old friends on the grid.

Now, let me tell you about the dress that was the catalyst for this fantastic evening and the cure for my blues...

Rebel Hope's Lumiere Azure Limited Edition gown was created to celebrate Rebel Hope and RH Engel's third anniversary as Second Life content creators. From the high neck and plunging back to the mermaid skirt, this gown sparkles and shimmers in a deep shade of royal blue. According to the Rebel Hope blog, the dress was created in Windlight and this is the only color that it will be made in. Even after dancing in it for three hours, I still can't find the words to describe how beautifully it moves as it swishes and swirls around the dancefloor. The skirt comes in five parts, so that you can adjust the fullness to your individual liking.



To accessorize, I wanted to keep the jewelry light in color and chose classicly simple pieces. I opted for Rebel Hope earrings that I also picked up at the Gossip Girl Street Fair, the Claris White Pearl and Diamond Choker in Silver from Muse and the white gloves from Simone Stern's Cotillion Gown (awwww...this was my Maid of Honor dress from Pyper's wedding). For shoes, I chose Stiletto Moody's Elegant Slingbacks in Silver Twinkle. When it comes to hair, I normally stick to colors similar to ETD's blonde, but I tried on this Platinum shade from ETD and haven't been able to take it off. If only I had figured this out during the sale...*sigh* (see below for complete details)

The other thing I can't seem to take off lately...my new skin from Fleur. It is the Feline in Bronze 3 and I just love the cat-like liner on the eyes and I'm in love with the lip color. I purchased this skin with the 500L Gift Certificate that Roslin and CJ, in a display of their usual (and unparalleled) generosity, made available to members of the Fleur Update Group. A very big thank you to the Fleur team!

Okay...time for some accountability... I was out of commission for a week or so, and then I was just lazy. So, here is what I plan to bring to you this week (I'm thinking that if I put it into writing here, I will have to stick to it): An interview with Rose Farina and a review of her store Rose Petal Creations, more looks from Last Call, and a tour of some of my favorite places in SL. Then, for next week, I'll be working on a peek into my inventory spotlighting designs from Icing and Cupcake

All the Details:
Dress: Lumiere Azure - Rebel Hope
Gloves: Cotillion Gloves (part of outfit) - Simone
Necklace: Claris White Pearl and Diamond Choker in Silver - Muse
Earrings: Diamond Drop Earrings - Rebel Hope (free gift at the Gossip Girl Street Fair)

Très Jolie...Très Fabuleux

As I mentioned earlier this week, I spent a good deal of time at the Stiletto Moody sale last weekend. While coming out of my post-shopping-frenzy stupor, I noticed the most striking Avi at the front of the store. I immediately had to inquire as to where she found the fabulous outfit she was wearing. As luck would have it, the Avi in question was, in fact, the designer of said fabulous outfit! Within minutes, I had a landmark and found myself chatting with Ms. Iota Ultsch of Tres Jolie and her delightful assistant, BritneyParis Underwood in their boutique.

What a treat! I always enjoy meeting designers in-world, it really gives you the opportunity to "see" their designs from their point of view. I appreciated the way Iota was able to look at my skin and my hair and make suggestions as to which of her designs would best compliment my features.

I immediately fell in love with the green hue of the outfit that first drew me to Iota and snapped up Le Singe en Vert with it's faux fur empire waist, silk bow, cupro leggings and velvet top. We styled it with the Gold O Wedge from Stiletto Moody and some giant gold hoops that were a gift from Iota. Totally glam and completely fabulous! Of course, I couldn't get away without picking up a hot little platinum sequin cocktail dress and a darling little black dress.

Guy made such a fuss over the sequin dress, that you know I had to drag him back there with me the very next night! He generously purchased the Aboriginal Lace Dress for me (yes, he spoils me and yes, I love it!) Again Iota was in the store, quick to offer guidance for adjusting the dress to just the right color for my skin tone and she made several suggestions for the shoes, hair and jewelry that would best suit the dress and my avi.

The designs offered by Iota Ultsch at her Tres Jolie Boutique are not inexpensive...nor are they unreasonably priced. And, quite possibly, they are not for everyone. But, what I can tell you is this...Ms. Ultsch is an artist. Each texture is hand drawn, each seam is finished flawlessly and each piece transitions beautifully into the next. One only has to look at the creations "in-avi" to recognize the hours of work and meticulous attention to detail required to create a final product as well-crafted as those offered at Tres Jolie. These are quality items created by a designer who puts a higher priority on artistic expression and design than the quantity of items sold.

So, am I going to tell you to run down there and snap up every outfit in the shop? No. But, do make the time to visit the boutique, chat a little with Iota and BritneyParis, and treat yourself to an outfit or two that makes you feel a little more glamourous, a little more sexy or even a little more exotic. I, for one, look forward to collecting these wearable masterpieces created by a true fashion artist.

I think this is as good a time as any to address content theft in SL. There are a number of designers for whom I have great respect. These artists toil tirelessly to make sure that our avis are stylishly dressed and accessorized, that we have beautiful homes and furniture for relaxing, and that our skin, shapes and hair are always perfectly styled...we have so many options for creating cyber versions of ourselves (or our alter-egos) thanks in large part to the creativity, drive and talent of these enterprising individuals. They deserve our respect and admiration, and they deserve to be compensated for their efforts.

Content thieves rob these designers of their intellectual property and compensation. So, whether you choose to spend 5L for a dress or 15ooL...make sure that you are purchasing from the original creator of that dress. Do not support those who make their SL living by stealing from others. And if you find something you think has been stolen and copied, contact the original creator right away.

Until next time, Happy Shopping! And I hope to see you at Tres Jolie!
