really disappointed that Bebe Bundle is 90% Baby size only....I would have supported the heck out of it :/
latest #61
That is disappointing. I really was saddened by the fact that even after the Kid size was updated for creators, they still kept making only Baby mesh
Like I was Baby size but I was a tall Baby, taller than the small end of Kid, but when I had my store I NEVER bought Baby-only mesh. I would have felt like I was letting people down only giving one size
well there's more people who use the baby size, always has been for that "cute" factor... bigger kids are just always forgotten about

This much is known. It was even worse being a big kid tho. Almost nothing for SMB.

I am glad SMB is slowly starting to get things. I wish all the cute things came in TD Kid :-(

wait the TD kid was updated?
RoryMileyBritneyLarnia: I think so. I think around the time everyone was drama-ing all over FB because the meshers were stopping making Kid size, Bit released an update to the Kid body which IN THEORY fixed
the issues people were having with it? But I don't really know for sure. But this would have been back in? May?

So, from MY point of view, which is that of someone who makes clothing for TD, and someone who is learning how to do all this as she goes..

hmmmmm i didn't see any difference, so maybe some people don't know it was updated because i didn't.

I didn't get an update for one, nor I doubt I will because Bit gave me the files not long after TD was released, which was before I suppose she started charging for the kits. Personally, I dont have a

'clothing' store, so I'm not sure if I could actually bring myself to purchase that, and turn around and have to purchase avastar as well (about 10k)

Anyway, for me to do the kid version, even if it was fixed, would require me to learn how to do that. There's not exactly a guide out there.. 'how to rig to baby and kid TD avatars using the files provided"

Well, if there is, I've missed it.

And then, I would have to essentially do double the work through rigging, uploading, etc.. for a mesh that will hardly be used.
Thing is - people used to make mesh for both. Even just a year ago. And then they all decided to stop, for whatever reason, and then drama that I don't want to even go near where people were calling meshers
"lazy" and then they all got more defiant and angry about the whole thing and refused to make Kid size anymore because people were being such bitches about the whole thing, and it was a mess.

Ah, I guess it's different for me then, because I never did make kid mesh..
But people used to make both. And now they don't. And that part is sad.
Yeah

I really get tired of people being such assholes to creators. If they dont want to make something a certain way for you tough.. stop shopping at their store..

Why do you want to get so ugly towards them? IDK, I do this for fun.. I enjoy making the stuff. So if I want to cut corners, and not include 45 versions of what I'm making.. and your unhappy with that..

there's not need to be a jerk and attack them for it. :/ I mean I get your giving them your money, but you dont have to. Maybe that's an unpopular statement.. but I just think everyone should be nice.
I wasn't the one bitching and attacking anyone? I just sat quietly and was sad for people who wanted to be Kid size. I think the only time I actually commented on the issue was to tell various meshers "don't

I think I came back at the tail end of this, and I see comments all the time on plurk and SLSecrets about how shitty xxx designer is, and I guess I too take it personally.
But yeah, between all the rage and drama there and the "pastel" debacle....ugh. So much ugh.

Things have really changed though.
I think the TD community got to being less of a "community" and more of a....bunch of factions. It's a shame.
I miss being a kid SO MUCH it hurts, but I do not miss that aspect of it at all, and if I went back to being a kid, I probably wouldn't be TD because it's all just got so....messy.

I guess the moral of what I WAS trying to say was .. I'm trying not to suck at the mesh I'm making right now. I've always made stuff for whatever -I- am. When I was a kid, when I was a tiny tot, and now as

a toddleedoo baby. Maybe at some point.. if I get better at all these new programs, I'll expand.. but right now, that's double the work on an already stressful process.

I'ts just wild that you can spend 2 hours trying to figure out a tiny problem, and you spend weeks taking the 'long way' of doing something. -- I'm still trying to figure everything out lol.
Bebe ✨Sparkle

And I'm sure I'm not the only one?
CindyBoo: you've come such a long way, even just since last year. But yeah. What you say is more or less the basis of what most of the people who make the FP mesh say. The Kid body isn't just bigger, it's a
whole other thing, like, the rigging is different on it. It is twice as much work and they did that poll and found that something like only 5% of people who responded use the Kid body. So I've actually helped
a few friends make Baby versions of their Kid shapes which are relatively indistinguishable, so they're not locked out of the new clothes. But it's not a perfect process and I wish it wasn't needed :-(

Yea, it's too bad that the body itself isn't made so you dont have to have 2 different versions of it..

idk how adult designers make 14 different versions of their clothing tbh.. I never could.
Bebe ✨Sparkle

I'd be like.. well.. I wear maitreya, so that's what I'm making mesh for lol
Well that is what some people do, and tbh I don't blame them, the number of adult bodies plus standard sizing has spiralled out of control. But I feel like to an extent it's on the customer to adapt.
Like when I went back to being an adult I used the Slink Physique body. But there were so many places who made "Maitreya Exclusive" clothes that I switched to Maitreya (which I already owned)
Sometimes you just have to see the way things are going and roll with it

I guess too, this isnt a FT job for me either.. and sometimes when I get done in blender, and it FINALLY gets uploaded in SL, I'm like.. welp.. I dont wanna texture this at all.
AbbyMcdonnagh: Well 8's a tricky age to play. Stupid-boy-who-we-don't-name RP'd 7ish (although he's changed his profile to say "7? 8? 9?") and insisted that at the smallest SMB would go, he was 4 feet, which
is the average height for a 7 year old. But I was a very tall baby and comfortably played 6, and was....maybe 2/3 his height? When I switched to SMB, and was the smallest I could go, I felt more like 9 -10
