Darn tootin!

denim jackets?

I laughed so hard I crapped meself.

Damn that woman!

Yes, they can buy the skin itself, which costs them money, or they can find someone else who bought the skin, but then they won’t have a choice in which skin they get, and it’s quite tricky to rip a skin off of someone who isn’t actively aware and helping in the process.

Having Demos up is not the sole way to rip a skin, but it certainly helps.

“You mean making one shitty skin and then slapping over different tones to make 20 others that all look the same? Dohoho. Stop kidding yourself, there is no such thing as a ‘designer’ in SL.”

I think you are over glorifying the word “Designer”, the term “Designer” doesn’t deem originality or quality, it just means a person who devises and executes designs especially “esp. one who creates forms, structures, and patterns, as for works of art or machines.”.

If you are making choices in where to put “forms, structures, and patterns”, as anyone who builds or textures their own work in SL is, you are a Designer. It doesn’t matter whether these choices are good, bad, or original.

Are you serious? You, as a designer, wouldn’t care to compare how many people are buying demos as to how many are buying full skins? That’s pretty vital information.

1L$ is worth 0.3 cents: less than 1/3 of a cent. Mind you, demos are NOT a privilege, they’re a service, and a somewhat risky one at that, as someone can openGL the texture, photoshop out the watermarks, and have themselves a free full perm skin. If you can’t be bothered to scrap up 0.3 cents for that service, who is really being greedy?

Why do you care who buys your watermarked demo?

$1L isnt free anyway. Unless you kno,w you gave that $1L back right away, but of course, you don’t do that, do you?

So it isnt for tracking purposes, it’s because you’re greedy and “oh it isnt that much money anyway”

20-30 people demo your stuff a day? $30L.

Sounds profitable, good for 3 texture uploads. back up your claim and return the $1L on the spot. It’s doable.

Putting it at 1L$ is just for sales tracking purposes usually, since 0L$ wouldn’t cause a notice to pop up when someone buys it. Mostly it’s probably just out of habit now. Either way, it’s such a fractional amount of real life money that neither the seller or the buyer gets/spends much money on it.

This is what pisses me off. What kind of a designer would make people BUY a DEMO? They can’t wear it and it’s got watermarks all over it and yet the person who made it is still greedy enough to make people pay for it. Sure it’s only 1L, but come on. It’s a demo, it should be free.
