And Demon Forest.. oh what tortures (including RLV) are hidden under the canopy of trees? You and your partner(s) will have to find out. Yes there are RLV traps, and you can play a scene on the tentacle beast!

Guess I'll throw my hat into the ring.

hoomins are good furry suckers

and so willing

Why can't people post properly framed snapshots of actually decent looking women in this thread? 80% of this thread consists of 'Every naked female avatar I've ever seen while idling in a club' with seemingly zero effort put into making them look presentable. It's just noise and it isn't actually sexy. There's plenty of decent looking SL avatars out there and shit like >>24431 certainly is not one of them. Who the fuck is going to fap to that shit?

Stuff like >>19970 is far closer to what quality should be like.

>>24479

I actually agree to this unfortunately.

>>24479
>>24488

Hmmmm, my two cents. Considering the examples I think there is a perception difference here.
>>19970 Is a static pose, so enabling Depth of Field, and everything else, then making a distance shot (to avoid seeing close in jaggies) you could achieve this 'model pose'. Though to put all that on your running (even on a empty sim) only 3 MAYBE 5 FPS, but a static shot doesn't matter.

>>24431 Is a action scene shot (i.e. movement constantly) where the person took a larger shot then crop it down. While the shot is probably still at High level with 10+fps, crop-zoom the image and the jaggies are noticeable on the tats (which I am thinking why your calling it crap?).

I noticed even when I maxed out my settings and accept the low FPS for the shot, if I go for a wide-shot then later 'crop that shit out' as someone bellyached before, I could see the jaggies become noticeable because I zoomed-cropped the image.

My settings were the same during >>24316, >>24317, and added DoF for >>24318 . Yes I took alot of shots, over HOURS of just hanging out because I could, so what? I don't know what your expecting here considering the population of SL is in the millions, so there is a large variety of the females, way they are made, etc. especially unique setups like >>24318 though on the generic base model.

Some unique I came across

Interesting take on a common white Sergal

Mmm short skirt, nipple exposed, nom nom nom

This actually isn't very hard. Your stuff is slowly getting better probably by mere nature of doing it often enough. When I go to collect snapshots of things, usually for products -- it really helps to turn on Advanced -> High Res Snapshots and Advanced -> Character -> Slow Motion Animations.

At that point, provided you actually know how to use the camera controls (not just Control and Alt clicking, but also Control-Shift to help lock in your view), you can just start spamming Control-` to take a shitload of snaps while the avatar is moving through an animation cycle. This works just like regular photography where they snap a few dozen shots off and then pick one of the better shots to work with.

At that point you can easily pick a decent shot, throw it into your image editor of choice and crop away and maybe do a simple trick like cloning the image, applying a Gaussian blur and then adjusting the opacity of the layer to help remove jagged aliasing. Even if you skip that step, simply shrinking the image from the high-res snapshots you're taking will be further removing aliasing just by downsampling.

That's not even asking you to have a great graphics card with all the settings turned on, it's simply a matter of caring about what you're presenting. Before you really should be posting an image, you should really be asking yourself 'Would I actually save this image and fap to it?' because that's really the sort of shit you want to be sharing. That's the point of this board.

Also, cut it out with the fucking humans. SL's human mesh is shit and it's very rare that any of them look good even with the miracles some of the skin designers are pulling off. The whole reason some people in SL are even playing furry avs is because they look less ass than the humans do.

>>24497

Thank you for the advice stated in a manner that was a good conversation than a flame job. I appreciate the information. That was helpful about the CTRL Shift and especially Slow Motion Animation would be a better choice I agree. I always have High Res set on, though I did notice sometimes SL image capture is not the same if I screen capture in some cases (especially when I was viewing things on my friend's 120HZ LCD TV).

Considering the following:
"like regular photography where they snap a few dozen shots off and then pick one of the better shots to work with... like cloning the image, applying a Gaussian blur and then adjusting the opacity of the layer"

I would say that maybe either A) We split a new thread for 'PRO' only images OR B) PawsRU states explicitly such Pro level knowledge and experience as a requirement for posting. Since B isn't a mandate (I believe it is open to amateurs - casual people), I would then suggest that to achieve the level your discussing (and I know there are some Pro SL Photographers) that A would be the best option so your eyesight is no longer offended with such 'crap'.

Just a conversation point to achieve a middle ground since I haven't a clue what the hell or who Gaussian is or how to adjust opacity like you would like personally.

Nice sexy Sergal I thought as I was passing by

I wouldn't worry so much about a 'Pro' thread or even if you know much about image editing applications. The shot you just turned in looks much better than usual because you've taken care to properly centered your subjects and that's going to count for a lot.

My only other piece of advice is to switch away from saving your snapshots as JPG in the SL client or to adjust whatever image editor you're using for to either increase JPEG quality when saving... or better yet, simply switch to using PNG where you will not even need to further think about it. The filesize increase isn't too terrible and will be well worth it.

The reason I mention this is because I just tried to do some work on your latest snapshot to show you a Gaussian effect when I noticed the entire image was pretty trashed with compression artifacts. Don't listen to anyone who whines about larger file sizes, we're in 2012 and I'd rather have amateurs turning in better work with PNG because it's lazy than to see things riddled with compression artifacts.

Also: Don't be afraid to play with the Windlight settings in the client. Some of them really do help light avatars and the environment much better than stock defaults, something I wish Linden Lab actually gave a shit about. There's a billion decent presets in some clients out there such as Zen and Exodus and you may find all you need is that one preset that gets the right look 95% of the time and will make things look less dark and washed out.

Just because I cannot help but spam a thread with critiques on a subject no one outside of this thread could give a shit about. The one thing I want to point out about the shot you just pointed that makes it better than most is that you actually have a sense of space to it.

The female subject is clearly in the foreground, yet she's not dead center of the image which a lot of people tend to do and that winds up looking rather dull. Right behind her off to her side is her pet, which is a nice enough touch to capture. You spent a bit of effort to get them both decent positioned into the final result.

I'm not gonna blow sunshine up your ass and say this is amazing work here, but these ARE the sort of shots you'll want to find where it's a bit more than just 'here's an av'. Just remember to spam that snapshot shortcut (Ctrl-`) a bunch once you've found your subject and you've set up your camera position -- the differences even a second makes between snaps can be quite dramatic and it's luck of the draw.

This may seem like 'Why bother doing all this work?' but I think it's simply respectful. Most of these ladies probably aren't thinking they're being cammed and posted to a porn board, it's only polite to at least make them look good. Anyway, back to lurking. Have fun with this!

I think it says something that I'm reading this thread more for the photography/image-capturing advice than I am for the porn.

But I don't know what is being "said". Hm.

I noticed the visitor log dropped in half, so I rebuilt FurHard to be more accessible. If you have a old link, please delete it and use this

As a going away to the last build, I had a nice little treat to enjoy.

Figured I would contribute to the thread I started. Tried different windlighting settings with this with everything but depth of field enabled.

Finished it off by adding a 0.5 gaussian blur along with a surface blur, radius 4/threshold 10, then reduced its size 30%

This windlight settings kinda bright for a night setting but doesn't do much for the scenery.

I like the background in this one.

>>24498
Uhm I don't know some of the humans are quite fetching :P

I don't think that human looks particularly good? She looks like every human your typical SL soccer moms slap together and she needs to spend more work on her shape. I think the other thing you're ignoring here is right at the top of the page 'Furry Female'.

Seriously, take that shit elsewhere.

(Good job switching to PNG, though)

Nerogoth is a faggot. End of story.

>>24585
Again please, especially the fact it doesn't belong here.

>>24603

There's no need for name calling you know.

Just enjoy the tits and pussy that get posted.

>>24620

I'm sorry but I can't enjoy shit.

Happy Easter!

YL was VERY VERY crowded. Seemed everyone wanted to hang there last night. Saw these two beauties as I walked in. I really like the lioness's red hair, not usual that way, and the wolf-lycan googles were pretty cool.

Bunnies? Easter?
Though not much irritates me in SL than Chinchilla feet on an otherwise different species. :|

>>24479
I agree with this somewhat. Mega tits aren't my thing...but most of this is just candid camera take a pic of rather blan, unexciting avs while nero strokes his ego with shots of his sim.
I noticed no one's shit stormed about that and demanded their removal.
I've seen his av and RP skills at work too...I'm glad he doesn't post many pics of himself

Pic from my friend, not the best, but she did a good job, I think, making and odd av look good

Every time I see NeroGoth come into the YL I teleport somewhere else, because I know that creeper is going to take a picture of my mediocre avatar, post it here, and jerk off to it

Seriously the guy is creepy

>>24493
body skin texture does not match the prim parts. different stripe pattern... i cant fap to this

>>24700

Not that I am complaining about the content (just that it seems to be on the wrong board) But isn't that a herm?

>>24722 Showing up in YL, naked and or fucking in public, that everyone in YL can see including your avatar, your account name associated to that avatar, can right click and look at your whole account profile and is jerking off to you being naked and or fucking is not creepy? But taking an ambiguous still image of 'a' avatar and sharing it on this board list that someone may jerk off it 'is creepy'?

FAIL TROLLOLOLOLO... Here is a video with the subtitles to help you since you don't know the truth http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pn4kZyqVRU

>>24778
No, actually, it is rather creepy and the fact you can't see the consent issue involved is rather funny.

>>24779

Only idiots use identifiable info for registering a profile and become attached to their character.

Stop thinking Second life is "first life".
There is nothing creepy here, except the mentality of SL users.

>>24781
Hello sociopath, glad to see you don't care and everyone not you is dumb. Newsflash: It's still creepy.

>second nolife thread

So I decide to register for an account to get in on the action, install the program, and get this message when I attempt to log in. What gives?

>>24804
Scratch that, I was able to fix that. Is there anything you would recommend to a beginner like me?

>>24816
Highly Suggest using Search for Noob
Usually there was Noob Island among other places with screen shots and step by step notecards you can click on to walk you through the basics and assist with common terms people are used to in SL.

http://Marketplace.secondlife.com is where shopping mainly takes place. There are a ton of freebies there, you can only search with simple terms. Furry. Free. Promo (great way to get quality items cheap). Etc.

>>24779
>>24792
Consent issue? More like drama issue

Walk down the middle of your RL street buck naked then asking the first person to fuck in the middle of the street, is okay (same thing as in YL I just described) then get 'creeped out' because someone takes a pic on their camera phone and upload it to PublicSex.com (or me posting here)?

Don't be in public 'that way' or keep your activities in private homes / lands and you will have the false sense of security to being in 'control' of what everyone is doing.

Meantime keep your drama to yourself
and keep the pr0n coming!
