Woo Hoo! Sounds like fun! Maybe I'll get a tiny headstart in collecting items for this... just gotta get an idea about what though!
Well, I guess it's time to start...
Screwing thinking cap on extra tight...I hope I can think of something before September is over.
I tried that before... just gave me a throbbing headache!
*puts out really big bottle of pain killers*
Thanks for the heads up.

LOL! You made me almost spill my coffee! Hmm... may be I SHOULD change my forum name to Skywalker?? ...
Her back was killing her. Her feet were killing her. It had been a long day spent at a charity event party she didn’t want to attend. Her Doctor advised her against taking this trip. She had miscarried before and needed to be careful. She would have rather stayed home but this trip was important to her husband Findlay so being the dutiful wife Larissa joined him. It was supposed to be a second honeymoon but, as usual, Findlay’s work was getting in the way.
At least, she hoped it was his work and not the beautiful blond that flirted with Findlay endlessly all evening. But asking Findlay about it will only result in an argument. Something else her Doctor advised her against. Was her husband having an affair?
Stay tuned for this and other continuing stories on As The Leaves Turn.

Kismet, are these the stockings you used?
http://littledragon.francemi.net/misc_01.htm
Maybe. Certainly look like they could be.
Thank you Chelle.
Not a problem!
Nice one Kismet! You would definitely get my vote for thinking outside the box!
And all links Check out, Entry Accepted
Thank you.
Okay, there is nothing quite like finding that piece you were looking for to use in the previous challenge while putting together the pieces for the current challenge... *sigh*
LOL That is certainly a different variation of Murphy's law.
I've been there... I feel your pain!!
I guess that is the "joy" of the treasure hunt!
I know right? I'm seriously missing my freebie database right about now... might have to put in some serious time to rebuild it.
If you have any pointers, throw'em my way! I could always use some fresh ideas!
LOL I had a rather extensive excel database I'd built up before, lost it when my hard drive crashed though.
So now I'm going to try to rebuild it, maybe store it online somewhere too heh
One thing I do is seperate things out, hair has it's own page, then each figure I use has it's own and then I have a column for what kind of file it is. For example, listing something as a character set (texture and morph) or as a morph only. Then I can sort by that column when I'm looking for something.
Ouch! Hard drive crashes certainly can ruin one's month!
That sounds like A LOT of work to rebuild but very useful in the end. I thought of the trying the spread sheet idea once but got a little intimidated by the scale of the project! I suppose if I started when I thought of it, I would have already been done by now! As they say, how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time!
Good luck, Chelle!
LMAO Tell me about it, it's been several months and I still haven't gotten my runtime back into shape. Every time I try to open an older render I'm reminded of another freebie that's missing. So, at least I have that as a starting point for building this back up. Should actually be easier this time around to be honest, as I'm not starting from an already jam-packed runtime and after years of installing things. The upside of the crash though, is that my runtime is MUCH cleaner that it was as I know how to install things properly now.
So true! I'm sure I've got stuff installed in some lost part of my runtime that I don't even know about! Great, now my OCD personality is going to take over and keep me wondering if I should go on a massive "content-hunt" through my disorganized runtime or if I should just intentionally wipe out my hardrive and start over too! Thanks Chelle! .... Nah, fortunately my laziness (or is it my ADHD?) trumps my OCD personality everytime!
LMAO My ADHD doesn't always trump the OCD in fact, in cases like this it never does.
If you'd like, I could put together a blank spreadsheet for you with the layout I use.
Nooooooo!!! You're not supposed to feed my OCD!!!
Actually I'd love to see how you've set up your database. Just to make it easier, you could just PM me a screen shot of the headings.
