CC project: subtle sideburns

[strangetomato]

After thinking about Ripp's sideburns some more, and some fruitless searching, I decided to try my hand at alpha editing.






Everything is clearly labeled, to avoid confusion.




1. No sideburns

2. My alpha-edited subtle sideburns - I can only figure out how to make them in black. Does anyone know how to toggle the colour in BodyShop?

3. My sideburns, again. Shown in black, to illustrate how they would look if they matched up.

4. Maxis sideburns

5. Tyler's sideburns (from GoS)

6. Fanseelamb's pointy sideburns (included with the Rufus Wainwright sim)


So what do you think? They achieve the effect I want them too (less stylized, and more natural than the other options), but I don't know how to make them brown. I'm sure there's an easy answer that I'm somehow missing. Anyone?

Also, what could be sexier than Ripp?

Answer: Six Ripps.

I still need to attempt to respond to those chapter 29 comments, speaking of lj ettiquette. I really can't be arsed to respond to every single comment ever posted out of obligation (lj is really effing weird in that people seem to expect it here), but I do like to try to respond to the story entry comments. It's a bit like sending a thank-you card back to the person who sent you a thank-you card (No, please... thank YOU for thanking ME! *snicker*), unless there's an actual question or discussion, but I do want to be appreciative.

I agree. People can be so uptight. I will admit to feeling annoyance at times when people post something really off topic in a thread, but that's only if they didn't comment on the on-topic at all. That's "thread highjacking," right? Or just hanging out in the comments? I don't know. I usually don't care if it's a natural divergence from the topic, but coming in from left field is annoying in RL too.

We know this guy that we actually call Left Field, because having a conversation with him is just so random. He switches topics based on what he's thinking, but doesn't relate the connection to you. It's weird.

I do respond to everyone's comments, but I think it's because I'm OVERLY polite. (When I had less friends I read everything they published too, but now I can't even try, it's crazy.) But yeah, people DO seem to think you *have* to respond to their comment because they commented on yours, but it can get ridiculous.


Thread hijacking is more like jumping into a conversation out of NOWHERE, which I don't mind as much, but only if it's relevant, you know?

*nodnod* People do change the subject sometimes, it's so weird.

UGH I HATE THAT. I would never, ever hang out with him, I would just be so angry all the time. :P
