@Smiley: I did the "photo paper effect" with Filter Forge, it's too awesome.

@Soli: Ooh, how's *that* for crossing over! Congrats to Dae!

As just a note on the emerging relevance of SL Photography – Dae is the covergirl for the Architectural Digest (Italian edition) special issue on the arts, as part of an article on SL portraiture… I think. It's all in italian, so I'm not entirely sure. But AD is a meaty magazine as far as design goes, so it was interesting to see SL art showing up in there.

also, re:kirby – as long as T isn't selling or advertising using the likeness of Kirby, it falls under fair use. Just wearing the avatar doesn't conflict with the copyright, unless the copyright makes specific prohibitions against it.

Awesome, like the "photo paper effect" . I've encountered that bug as well, with my "My blog on and iPhone" screenshot on Flickr — had to upload 5 times to make it end right. Mine somehow had a dark-and-light-purple-ish background, with some sharp wood-like corners .

P.S.: You do know using Kirby inworld as a Second Life avatar requires permission from the creator (or owner if sold rights) of the original Kirby?
