Few questions about Jewelry
Hello
I have just started to make some jewelry and see myself as a learner. How do you offer jewelry? no copy or copy? I have made mine copy because thought that way it's easier for the customer to receive a re delivering in case things go wrong. But what would be the reasons to make it no copy?
About demos. For example if a set has necklace and earrings or for complete sets, which have also bangles and a ring, how do you offer the demos?
Thanks in advance for your comments and suggestions, either as customer or jewelry maker

Re: Few questions about Jewelry
In my opinion, it is good to make things Copy. Then, if something gets screwed up, the customer hasn't lost out. With that, make things No Transfer or you run the real risk of seeing your item given away all over the place. I make items Modifiable, but scripts No Modify. That way, people can resize things to make them fit them properly and also gives them a way to customize. The scripts are No Modify so as to prevent people from tinkering and breaking the functionality of the item.
I can see making something No Copy if its a one time use sort of thing. An example: for role play, a healing potion. Making it No Copy means that it is used as it should be, consumed and then its gone.

Re: Few questions about Jewelry
Thank you Sarge for your comments. A question about the modify permission. I do it for clothes, they are copy/mod. In SL there are various scripts around to clone an object, one inserts it in the content of modify items. That is the reason why I made the shoes no mod. Wondering if there are such scripts in Opensim. If they are not, there is no point that I continue making the shoes and now the jewelry modify with a resizer script.

Re: Few questions about Jewelry
I've never used a resizer script, but there should be some around. In fact, your old SL script may very well work, many of mine do. Its certainly worth trying. If not, check the script wiki's and libraries of other OpenSim based grids and forums.

Re: Few questions about Jewelry
I guess this is the good one...
Now...clone script? hmmm....never seen one personally but there are copybot viewers so what is the point?
otoh, I really would love to get two scripts "Obey Me" that wordfromthewise holds close to his heart and a multi-grid chatterbox scripts the 3rg folx just will not let go of....grrr

Re: Few questions about Jewelry
oh thank you Sarge. I got a good improved resizer. Took me over a year until I found one working in most grids. And now that Kitely fixed the minimum prim sizes to 0.001 my script will even work to resize nano sculpts and will make my shoes fit very small avatars. I'm happy with this fix. It makes for me possible to work on jewelry in Kitely, but unfortunately most grids don't have this improvement yet.
Mine so true, tons of copybotters specially in SL. But I believe the majority of persons are honest. I think, who uses a copybot needs to have a 'who cares mentality'.
Might be there is not such script in opensims. I should be fine. I will start offering my shoes modify. In 5 years creating, I've never had problems with copybotters.
Thankies you both, for your comments. I still don't have a better way on how to offer the demos for my jewelry. I think I will attach to each piece a box. Just wanted to avoid letting my customers look like a Christmas Tree with many boxes around haha

Re: Few questions about Jewelry
.001 "should" be in all OS based grids by default....from what little I know of this it seems to me they would have to go in and disable this themselves...not sure why they would, assuming this is true.Isis Ophelia wrote:oh thank you Sarge.

I very much agree that most people are honest...and, in fact, some are positing this Kitely MP will help in this in some regards...tho I am not one to expand upon that thought process, those who do basically suggest having commercial content available in the Meta will make it easier to buy rather than go to the trouble and risk of copybotting. Obviously, realistically, "some" will still copybot.
Personally I would promote towards the positives in this regard than dwell and worry to much to the negative aspects.
In any case, looks like you got things well in hand-))

Re: Few questions about Jewelry
I believe Miney is correct, .001m is the default minimum size in OpenSim, as is 99% hollow. However, not all viewers are created equal and some still use the legacy default SL setting of .01m and 95%. I can verify that Firestorm uses the defaults of .001m and 99%.
Regarding demos, the Kitely Market has that feature in place already, so you don't have to make separate items yourself, unless you need them for an inworld shop. In which case, add something that clearly marks it as a demo and make it no perms at all. No mod, no copy, no trans.

Re: Few questions about Jewelry
It is good that your are creating new jewelery of your own. But it would be good to copy. You can give a good demo here. Share it here.
