[12:30 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: ㋡
[12:33 PM] Miranda Barrowstone: you okay? cecli?
[12:33 PM] Cecily Łυмιère (Cecily Corvinus): The tail I’m currently wearing is on v1.1 and as soon as my rigger is better from COVID we’ll be doing a big old update for 2.0 sizing. The tail is available at Abnormality right now! It has asymmetrical BOM and now includes shapes to help with the fits as well. This project is going to see lots of continuous support and updates for years to come! That means the Fatpack will also include any body additions, but you can also buy single sizes per body! It works great with the Nemissa Poser HUD and animations, and the Tala Bento AO. In the future, those are features that we’re going to be adding as free updates to the tail as well.

- to make mer resources (events, projects, groups, retailers, sims, designers) visible and easily accessible
- to assist, as possible, with the viability of mer resources so they may continue to be available to the community
- to promote the conservation of rl oceans, lakes and waterways and the nature that relies on them
