Cartoon of The Day: Little Dragon

 

 Taken at the Fantasy Faire. One woman had with her a pet dragon, little and cute. But when they're no longer little, not so cute. Some dragons would know this.

Cartoon Of The Day: Pink Elephant

 

 

 Taken at Freedom Rock. There's an old joke that if you see pink elephants, you've been drinking too much. So maybe if you have an elephant that's really pink next to you, nobody would bug you about it.

Cartoon of The Day

 *

Taken at the Happy Vixen in October 2019. When you're surrounded by little and cute critters, maybe it's as innocent as it seems, and maybe it isn't.

A Gacha Garden for Littles

Gachas can be a lot of fun. And by all means it's not just full-sized avatars that enjoy them. Those who prefer child avatars like them just as much, unless they have a lot of items they can't use such as clothes too big to fit them. Fortunately for them, there's the Little Diva Gacha Garden. This is a gacha designed with child avies in mind, and have some items the grown-ups can use as well. Alura Denver took a look to see what was available.

Sansar Creator Preview - Ria

(Click here if the video fails to play)

Posted on July 6 by Linden Lab, with the help of Draxtor Despress, "Opening to the public in 2017, Sansar is the best way to create, share, and monetize your own social VR experiences. You can apply to join our creator preview community now at Sansar.com. Ria shares her thoughts on this new platform and offers a sneak peek at "Little Giant," one of the first experiences created with Sansar during the creator preview."

Daniel Voyager, Inra Pey, and Hamlet Au would write about the video, Inra having the most to say.  Being a promotional video, Inra cautioned, "Those looking for details on Sansar are going to be disappointed ... given it is a promo video, reading too much into what 'is' or 'isn’t' said would be a mistake." Among what was spoken was Ria's claim that "right now, there is nothing even remotely like Sansar, " something any Second Life user will tell you is not true. Hamlet Au was unusually critical of the Lab for this, "Linden Lab knows full well, because for one thing, the company's invested in Philip Rosedale's High Fidelity. Not to mention all the other competitors in the social VR space which have similar aspects to all or most of what Sansar is purporting to offer." It could easily be argued this is another sign Linden Lab is expecting few Second Life users to make a complete change to Sansar and will be marketing their next generation virtual world to others.

My Little Brony

Xymbers Slade does some "horsing around." As he checks out "Bronyland," a sim for fans of the "Brony" avatars, modeled after the "My Little Pony" dolls. He takes a brief look at the avatar, and has an interview with sim owner Twinkie Swizzle about the overly-cute pony avs and how they caught on.
