Whats Goin' on IMVU? Vol. 4 [3-15-09]

Yo. Yeah, its been a minute. More and more I am finding less time to blog, but I try and sty up with the weekly updates on weekends.


First off: Bling Blaow!

After a long period of procrastinating, I made a badge. I had the option to make a 2x1 or 1x2 sized badge, but I thought: Why waste spend more credits on an extra 20px x 20px? Not to mention I am not trying to bully ya lil' space you got to show off sh*t. I think the badge came out so-so (mysterious white dots appeared after I submitted it) but I am more happy with the layout when you click on my badge. It's a clean small interface with links to my products, my page, and this blog. I plan to eventually try and add the java link that makes my avatar's info pop up, idk if that will work properly or not. That will go in the blank space at the bottom, I purposely made it blank to later and another link... Maybe even two. Check out the look of the layout when you click my actual badge below. I am very happy to say that I have not been swamped in requests for my badge (whew!). I have a panel on my page which is a self-service station to get my badge. No, it isn't instant but you should get it by the end of the day you requested it. So far I have only got one idot leaving a message asking for one (he thought if he gave me his badge, I would send him mine, smh). The ONE rule I have for my badge is do NOT waste your time or mine messaging me for it, that's what that whole damn panel is there for! Anyways, preview below, lol.

Second off: Newer Products (Peer Review)

It wouldn't be breaking news to say that PR keeps my products from seeing life for almost 5 days on average, but lately I have had crazy experiences. On the DGK Over Ho's Tee, I was prepared to recieve a failing grade on PR because of the fact it can be seen as a deragautory term or discrimanatory towards a group of people...Thankfully DGK happened to have the text say "DGK OVER HO'S" rather than "DGK OVER HOES". So when I sent it into PR, I put a note at the bottom explaining it means Belonging to Ho and that it was not ho in the plural (hoes). I am positive for that reason, it passed; not a single fail under a GA rating! Oddly enough, the matching Philidelphia Flyers (hockey team) Hat came back with an UNCLEAR verdict and was going to Customer Service (CS) for reveiw. I was not accepting that. I sent it back to PR with a 2nd Grade explanation of what a hat was and directed it at anyone doing PR. It was passed. Embarassment is a big motivator.

So all that is out of PR. Now I have got a lot of questions on what happened to the purple outfit... It went to CS, I'm sorry. I have never had any products, until the Philly Flyers Hat, go to CS. I am working on pictures and descriptions to get it out because I know people who have had stuff go to CS and not come out after a month or longer! I won't let that happen.

This weekend, I made a complete De La Soul themed outfit including: Nike SB Dunk De La Soul Highs (PROPS to JR2PhRESH aka LunchBoxNerd who dropped the 1st De La Soul Hi SB Dunks on IMVU back when sanejack first made the feind mesh. Find his here), De La Soul Is Dead Tee, and a San Francisco Giants x De La Soul Fitted Hat. All will be hitting PR early this week; I already have the icons for all of them done.

Expect female sh*t very soon. I am thinking maybe a top or two as well as full outfits and kicks.
