It can not be an upgrade, it would be something different, and it can not work together with other content. It is not room on the template to add in a new arm. The way the arms are mirrored have annoyed me so much. I have heard the pleas for a new template with 2 arms since I joined SL. BoM has never been advertised as a new template with 2 arms. LL have not said it will do other things than the standard one - arm template. Until the BOM template gets an upgrade from the old 'one arm' system template, BOM cannot become the 'universal applier' it's being promoted as, though it remains nice to wear some of that really lovely intricately made fantasy clothing that was never created in 'applier' form.īoM is the old template. (or just make stuff for one or two and leave everyone out of the mix.) where you have to make clothing in sizes for all the different bodies that are out there. I think some of us were hoping that it would NOT be like making mesh clothing. So, instead of making omega, slink, catwa, maitreya etc., you now ADD BOM to the mix. Instead of BOM becoming a universal layer that everyone can use (including some of my fantasy friends who will probably never go mesh), it becomes just one more 'applier' that a creator must make. It is actually quite straightforward to create stuff for BOM layers, so that's unfortunate. A lot of people who are creating may not bother. BOM has been promoted for its ease of use - but if there's no way to create some things for BOM, then it becomes less flexible than appliers. My point is that BOM becomes of less value if it cannot do all that appliers can do. I hope the creator packs from the sellers has some information about how to make tattoos. You can price them higher than only Bom tattoos, since it is more work. Maybe sell your tattoos Bom without arms plus appliers for the arms? I would love to have tattoos from the same designer, because of the style/ink strength.įor those who can only use Bom, they are out of luck. The TMP/Legacy free body does not have any option, as far as I know, but the full priced have. I remember seeing them, because Ryan Schultz is blogging all freebies. So those who have Bom only must be some freebie bodies. Slink has the asymmetric harness over their Redux body, and Maitreya can add layers. I guess they're out of luck unless LINDEN (or whatever they're calling themselves now) are willing to create a more flexible template system. Some people even have (mesh) bodies that have no applier layer anymore. The problem is that BOM is the big dog right now and everyone's trying to use their BOM based bodies. I will be checking with the makers of the major bodies for their templates and getting to work figuring out how to make the asymmetric tattoos in the mean time. If I can make asymmetric Omega, Slink or Maitreya etc., applier tattoos, that would make me very happy, though that would leave out anyone who has BOM/system only. I have not yet attempted applier based tats, but I plan to. Currently, I have been unable to find someone who can tell me how to do it with BOM. I cannot use them because the writing is fine on one side, and reversed (backward mirrored) on the other side. The Tats I'd like to apply to arms have writing. The people I meet who have made them tell me it cannot be done, at least not in BOM. I'm trying to figure out HOW to make asymmetric BOM tattoos. I've created tattoos in BOM/system but they are always mirror images. If the reply is "Nor can do, SL has just one arm template" then tell him that Maitreya, Belleza and Slink can indeed have asymmetric arms. Send your favorite ink creator a polite notecard and ask for new asymmetric tattoos. Now i see why so many tattoos are on the body or the legs, even though most i see in RL are on arms (at least, that's what's often visible)Īsymmetric tattoos are so cool, the only way to get them is to stop buying the mirrored ones. Yes, "Lindens", this needs to be addressed. or maybe creating a bracelet that is invisible with words on it? That would seem like unnecessary roughness, and it takes up an attachment slot. Seems no matter what layer i use, if i go with BOM, I'm stuck with needing to use something without words. I was thinking if i made a shirt layer, it could be asymmetrical, but if the template is one armed, i don't see how that is possible. or that he/she created the template system, just that he/she made the most commonly distributed ones.Īnyway, the biggest problem with mirrored tattoos is that if you WRITE words on the tattoo, then you have a tattoo with backwards words unless it's a mirrored word (visual palindrome, like 'mom' in certain fonts). I mean, imagine, mesh would be mirrored in some cases. □Īm i the only one who thinks mirrored tattoos look stupid not that nice?
