http://sl-blogs.com/blindpony My Second Life as a blind ponygirl. Mon, 21 Sep 2009 22:48:13 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en I have been waiting..... waiting and waiting for my owner, but she has not come. I pray that she will come back to me. She is many weeks overdue and I begin to seriously worry. I hope beyond hope that she will contact me. I wait..... http://sl-blogs.com/blindpony/2009/09/21/590/ Today is my Rezday..... one year in SL. Time goes so quickly. THe last thing I ever expected to happen happened today. I was greeted with a message from Dee when I logged on. This threw the whole of our group into a state of confusion. We had all ... http://sl-blogs.com/blindpony/2009/07/17/rezday/ Cheryl and I tried to get the pole bending to work today. We called in the makers, but, once they left again, we could not get the system laid out correctly. It was a bit frustrating. Tomorrow is another day, and a special one. I plan to do no work ... http://sl-blogs.com/blindpony/2009/07/16/setting-up-the-poles/ Cheryl is just full of ideas and gadgets! She has something called "Pole Bending." Normally, it is used for horses, but I think that we can get it to work for carting as well. It is just like the Slalom, but it has a wider spacing between the poles which, ... http://sl-blogs.com/blindpony/2009/07/15/pole-bending/ Another addition to the track: a finish line for the races. I think we will have a bit of trouble trying to get the finish line and the starting gates to work together, but, all in all, they are a great combination. I look forward to being able to compete ... http://sl-blogs.com/blindpony/2009/07/14/finish-line/ Cheryl likes the look of the Track, and she picked up something very useful for it: starting gates. I think they are a wonderful addition to the sim. They give the feel that ponies will really be competing in a race. It was great of Cheryl to pick those up ... http://sl-blogs.com/blindpony/2009/07/13/starting-gates/ I made the fences high ones, and I placed a brick island in the center of the track. I also decorated it with some images that I found online. They give the impression, I hope, of advertisements that go around a racetrack, except that these are more western in feel. ... http://sl-blogs.com/blindpony/2009/07/12/more-work-on-the-track/ I am placing a track in the center of this newest level. Instead of using a large, granite affair, as I had done with the coliseum, I am going to use fencing - something with a more western feel to it. I want people to have the impression that they ... http://sl-blogs.com/blindpony/2009/07/11/the-track/ I laid out the roads today for the newest level. Instead of a bridge, I will give my owner what she wanted: an underground tunnel. I will use the idea of the cave from the coliseum level, and combine it with the tunnel. I think the two ideas shoule mesh ... http://sl-blogs.com/blindpony/2009/07/10/underground-2/ The ground and the walls are up for the new level. http://sl-blogs.com/blindpony/2009/07/09/more-building/
