Of Course Now That My Vacation Is Over, I Feel That Sudden Urge To Learn How To Do Renders In Blender.

Of course now that my vacation is over, I feel that sudden urge to learn how to do renders in Blender. Couldn't that motivation kick in last week?

mere mortal humans! the immernacht circus is about to arrive to bring you a night full of spectacle and wonder.

Almost finished setting up my second scene for my Halloween photo shoot! 🎪🎠 All that is left to do is to add some floorpainting and adjust the lightning of the candles.

ok i tried these edit fat morphs and i have some thoughts! they can all be summed up as ARF ARF ARRRRRF RRR RRRR ARGFHH RR RRGG BARK BARK HRRR HRRR BARK BARK

If you don't hear much from me the next couple of days, that's because I'm preparing some screenshots for spooky month!

Here's a little outtake of Nasja looking just as done with the whole photo shoot as I when my game decided to crash right when I finished setting up the scene. D':

Also, there is a severe lack of circus/carnival themed cc! I'm begging some of the talented cc creators to consider making some fitting objects, clothes and poses.

The person who get 0 notes just wants a few. The person who gets a few notes wants just to get to double digits. The person getting double digits thinks it's not good enough unless it's getting near 30 or 50. the person getting THAT is wanting to get to triple digits. The people getting triple digits think their posts are failing if they get double digits.

If you have a post that takes off one day, the one you post next doesn't do as well you think you've failed. But... that's just how engagement works??? Sometimes things are going to hit better, and usually you will NEVER be able to guess which one takes off. It surprises me that one of my all time most downloaded posepacks are the super boring 'confessional' poses. Or that a silly post I make half assed super late gets a bunch of attention when something I'm really proud of doesn't even get a reblog.

I posted for like two years straight on my simblr and only 1 person was reading it and liking it at the time. One. Now I get at least 10 people! And they'll reply to posts semi regularly!! That's incredible to me! Would I like the level of conversations I see happening in other people's notes? Obviously, that'd be so much fun! But it's ok that I don't have that. Maybe I will one day!

It's going to take time to build an audience. My legacy on my simblr has been going for nearly 7 years, and I would only say within the last year or so I have any sort of an audience. I've seen many people leave and join and leave simblr again in that time. There are lulls on simblr when people are less active.

I guess what I'm getting at is yeah, you're probably always going to want more than what you already have. But I find that it means more to me when some of my favorite mutuals or friends on here reply to a post of mine than if it gets 100 notes. 🤸‍♀️🤷‍♀️
