http://slurl.com/secondlife/Ctrl%20Shift%20H/164/171/23 

Happening now and throughout the weekend, our big shindig. Come check out our wonderful new space on the Home Sim and be a part of the celebration! We have two new umbrellas releases that are totally ridiculous and fun! Also, on sale for half price this weekend only ;)

And speaking of sales, various items around the store are marked down 50% off this weekend - including Pulsing Heart Lantern Multipack, crazy wearables like Contact Has Been Made and the Tornado Twister, the Deluxe Weatherbrella, and more!

Also, you'll want to pick up your free opening party gift of a sculpted Prawn Racer Vehicle, so silly and fun we laughed like crazy making it and we bet you will too when you ride it around ;)

Finally, check out these new landscaping releases - sculpted flowers and grasses to liven up your space with new colors and designs. You can see lots of examples spread around throughout our new location!

Weather! or not? at Operation Squeegee

We have quite eclectic set of offerings for you this week, all of them to be found at OPERATION SQUEEGEE HEADQUARTERS!

First off we have the events stage itself! This is a custom creation by Fang specifically made for OpSquee but suited for all sorts of outdoor events and locations. It features sturdy, rustic wooden construction and an unusual design making it perfect for those tricky corner locations! Of course, we always love to keep our prim count down, so the whole stage including ivy covering, stairs, handrails, and beams is only 44 prims. Made with our own unique sculpts so you'll never find another like it in design.

Then we have the lantern strings... based on one of our most popular items, this is an exclusive multi-color combination of orchid, mint, and bluegrey. Only 4 prims for the whole strand of lights, the package also features several choices in style - straight or curved in perfect condition or with a bit of aged and tattered character added.

Ok, now for something *completely different*! From the twisted minds of Fang and Further - we present... the Gloop avatar set:

... comes in both "Crude" and "Refined" versions. Both include giant spreading oily footprints, sloshing sounds when walking, and a comical AO. Crude is bigger, badder, and just plain awful, where Refined has spiffed itself up a bit with a top hat, tie, spectacles, and even a carnation. Still, I don't think this avi is gonna win any modeling pageants! Still, what a look, eh?

So, for those of you who DO want to win beauty pageants, we have a lovely new design of jewelry! The first of its type, the Silver Medallion Pendant and Earrings are offered here with blue stones to remind you of the oceans.

Please visit Operation Squeegee to find our newest batch of creations and help support the National Wildlife Federation's Oil Spill Recovery Fund. All of our items are 100% Donation!

Dragonfly madness at the Alt Fair

The Alt Fair is all about protecting people from exposure to Malaria from mosquito bites by providing nets to families. It's a simple concept, but a powerful and effective one. Weather! or not? decided to go with the bug theme for our exclusive releases for the Fair... so we went with dragonflies! (Further has a bit of a thing for dragonflies, you see). There are a series of these tshirts - with two different colors schemes for the graphic and then varying shirt fabric hues as well. These forest green ones pictured are the variety released exclusively for the Fair.

... and of course we had to release an umbrella as well - this one is a lovely Green Dragonflybrella! It features the same swarming particle system that the Batbrella uses.

The Alternative Fair is on the Pulse, Nomine, Snatch City and New Kadath Sims April 22-May 2. The first Annual SL Alternative Fair features over 50 designers in Punk, Rock, Gothic, Grunge, Lolli, Visual Kei, Cyberwear and many other styles of Alternative Clothing, Skins, Hair and Accessories.

Upcoming Releases at the Fantasy Faire!

Well, we've been meaning to make more of this line for a while - and now it's here. Presenting several new items in the Wrought Iron Whimsy series - Wall Sconces, the Whimsybrella, and coming very soon - Fences! The items in this series are great on their own and even better combined. You could create quite a lovely place with the Sconces, Lampposts, and Fences all together.

Each of these designs is completely original, right down to the sculpts themselves. Don't worry about slow loading sculpts though - these are super efficient and re-use the same patterns throughout the whole series to maximize your rez speeds. There are lighting elements included that give you full control over all aspects - intensity, color, prim color, etc. Very customizable for whatever location or occasion! Even the umbrella comes with it's own light!

Ok, we also should mention our one of a kind exclusive item for the RFL Auction at the Fantasy Faire. It's a Rosepetalbrella with purple tones - there will only be ONE of these released ever in this color scheme! We hope you support the RFL by attending the auction and bidding on the wonderful gifts there, and look for our offering.

Weather! or not? is so excited to be a part of this event - watch out for these and even more releases from us timed with the opening of sims on the 19th!

Neon and Dirty Laundry? New Releases for the Accessory Fair ;)

Weather! or not? new releases available ONLY at the Accessories Fair for the month of March:

Can't help but air your dirty laundry? Then this is for you you! ;) Although this umbrella provides minimal weather protection, drops the occasional sock and is kind of rusty & bent this accessory screams 'this person is a bit strange!'. If thats your kettle of fish, or your bag of eels even, please consider proudly wielding the WishyWashyBrella!

Features:
* Highly detailed sculptie construction, lovingly bent and warped from years of simulated virtual use (and swinging on it like it was playground equipment).
* intermittent sock dropping Particle effect
* flexible pre-soiled 'washing' hanging from the line
* highly detailed sculptie clothes pegs/pins
* sculpted wearable shoulder sock (as if one fell on you and stayed there).

This isn't just a texture in a box, its a fully sculpted miniature 3D neon sign! The text cycles from NITE to LIFE, going dark inbtween, and a small red illuminates you at the same time as the text lights up - cool effect!

Enjoy as always,

Fang Roffo and Further Monday
