DETAILED INFORMATION
===========================

The prop contains different menu-driven special effects ranging from different animated prim options to particles, and was created with love for details, fun, and custom textures.

The prims of the energy spheres offer different states, which you can access by menu to add the extra magic to your photoshooting or roleplay experience. To access the menu, click the rat outside the magic circle. Menu offers you the following options:

• choose default sceneries or disable all special effects,
• add particle fog and lost souls, or turn them back off,
• select the states for each special effect separately,
• set permissions who may access the above listed options to anyone, group, or owner only. – Default on rez is set to OWNER ONLY, pose menu is not effected by this selection.

Please keep in mind: To see glow and light, it requires for at least ‘basic shaders’ and ‘nearby local lights’ being enabled in preferences – ‘at least’ cause Windlight is obviously more picture taking fun ;-) )

Regular and FullBright Prim Eyes
for Petites Mesh Avatar
======================

That devious spark in tiny prims! To match the ability to turn your Petites mesh avatar to full bright and glow, deviousEyes “AngelDust PETITE” come in two different versions, a regular and a full-bright prim version. We’ve included 3 different iris sizes of each option in this eye set, to allow you to find the one that is perfect for you!

With the different Petites avatars there are by now, you might find that the placement of the prims could not be ideal for your eye shape – please just move them forwards/backwards into place if this is the case for you :)

=====================
Regular and Dilated Pupils
with rainbow lights reflections
for regular SL avatars
=====================

!dM deviousEyes “AngelDust” comes in two different versions, one with a regular ‘daytime’ sized pupil, and a second ‘delirium’ version with dilated pupils as you would encounter during night-time, or if artificially induced with eyedrops, or as reaction to physical sensations.

The size of eyes in SL is dependend on different aspects of your shape – and for that reason, we’ve included 3 different sizes of each version in this eye set, to allow you to find the one that is perfect for you!

A BRIEF GLANCE INTO HISTORY:
———————————

Drops prepared from the belladonna plant (Italian: ‘beautiful Lady’) were used to dilate women’s pupils throughout history, an effect considered attractive. Eventually, it was found out this plant is highly poisonous, and would as well cause harm to the eye muscles. These days, non-poisonous eyedrops are sometimes still used in fashion-photography to achieve this ‘beautiful lady’ effect with their models. (*and the mandatory subtitle blinks up on the screen* “Now please don’t try this at home kids, looking into flash-light like that is harmful too” *winks*)

Why?

Eyes and certain characteristics of eyes are important part of body language.. they indicate if somebody is for example tired, scared, in shock, excited or aroused. So they give subtle unconscious hints to the one looking into them – maybe this is why they are called ‘windows of the soul’ by some people. While science takes this all into pieces (and I am sure you can investigate more on it), it is said that subconsciously we find larger pupils attractive. It might be connected to the ‘puppy eye’ effect or simply our inner self knowing that it might indicate arousal :D

-PassionParlor-
PhotoStage

April 2012
======
•

‘PassionParlor’ is our sweet little answer to anything that requires a special surrounding – and with that, it leaves the possibilities wide open! Did you need a scene for a burlesque inspired strip club with little niches for your pole dancers? A little baroque music ensamble with rich vases and tropical flowers in the alcoves of the room? Your private boudoir? A Victorian or Steampunk ballroom maybe with orchestra on stage? Or just a romantic place for your special wedding day…

So if any of the above can be answered with “yes, I do!” then this photostage is for you! It comes with a rich and luxurious feel on a 46×38m footprint (the inside room is smaller due to the alcoves in the walls). A dark hard wood floor invites you for a dance, and fancy wood work decorates the lower walls and rounded off platforms of the indentations. Airy silk curtains and rich velvet wallpaper with pearl decor set the mood, while whatever pleasures are going on in here heat the atmosphere. ;)

Overall, we focused this time on a stage which is geared towards diversity in it’s use, and we’re more than curious what YOU will use it for!

The walls, curtains and podest carpets are individually color scripted and allow to mix-and-match the following colors:

• black,
• pearl,
• red,
• pink,
• purple,
• teal,
• green and
• golden-creme.

As with everything scripted: Make sure you are in a sim that allows for scripts to run!

“Starlette” FeatherBoa
**COLOR INFORMATION**

BurlesqueCouture and Accessories
by !dM deviousMind
======
•

What’s the thing you need most when thinking burlesque? Feathers, naturally! So here they come, in more colors than you could possibly think of – individually in 8 colorpacks with 3 shades each, or in one big **COLOR PACK** filled with 24 color goodness! (Outfit sold separately, worn on image is !dM “Good Girl” in **HONEY** and **PEARL**)

COLOR INFORMATION:
———-

Each set comes with 3 feather boas in a light, medium and darker shade of color. These are as follows, respective to the color set you purchased:

• **GRAYSCALE** set brings the classics:
**BLACK**, **SILVER** and **WHITE**

• **SUNSHINE** set brings hues of yellow:
**HONEY**, **CANARY YELLOW** and **ORANGE**

• **REDS** set brings what it sounds like:
**BRIGHT RED**, **SCARLET RED** and **BLOOD RED**

• **PINK** contains shades of pink and more pink!
**FLAMINGO PINK**, **PINK** and **DARK PINK**

• **VIOLET** set brings hues of purple:
**LILAC**, **PURPLE** and **DARK VIOLET**

• **BLUES** consists of these 3 shades:
**FORGET-ME-NOT**, **BLUE** and **ELECTRIC BLUE**

• **TEAL** consists of
**TURQUOISE**, **TEAL** and **DARK TEAL**

• **GREENS** set brings the shades of forest:
**KIWI**, **ABSINTHE** and **EMERALD**

All the Above are included in our **COLOR PACK**

RESIZE & STRETCH:
———————

We’ve taken special account to using a resize script, that operates from the root prim only! And unlike old scripts, it allows you to stretch the pieces into one direction individually, so you can make things wider or narrower to adjust them to your shape. (This still has some limitations due to how the stretching works – please see separate notecard in the box for further info)

In most cases it helps to adjust the placement of the prims on your avatar before resizing, as the attachment position on first wearing highly depends on the height of your shape, length of arms/legs, etc., so items attach for everybody slightly different (higher or lower, sometimes a little rotating forward/backwards). You will find a picture guide in this box to explain how to edit the attachment point if you are unfamiliar with how to do it. :)

Please make sure to take a copy of the original items (or keep your original box for backup in the folder) before moding and delete the scripts out of this modded copy after you are done! Included is a notecard for all functions of the script.

TEXTURES:
———–

All feather textures for the boas are digitally illustrated and created by Chandra Meehan for (*chanimations and deviousMind – if you find them used by anybody else not connected to us, please help protect original content and immediately inform us! Thank you in advance!

UPDATES:
———-

The **COLOR PACK** includes an object named !dM deviousMind “Starlette” *COLOR* – CHECK FOR UPDATE (rezz) which will check for free upgrades to any of the content of this set. We’ve included this so your color pack will be up-to-date on all possible future color additions to this set.

When rezzing, it will take a short while before the update client connects to our server and you will receive your free upgrade should any be available. In case when it doesn’t automatically connect, you can call for the update manually by typing “/12update” (without quotes) in open chat when standing next to the object.

We keep you informed about item updates through our mainstore by signs at the vendor. Updates are as well listed on our blog: http://chanimations.deviousmind.net/about/updated/

And as with everything scripted: Make sure you are in a sim that allows for scripts to run!

Burlesque Couture and Fairy Costume
for ‘Petites’ Mesh Avatar
by !dM deviousMind
======
•

The ‘Green Muse’ of artists and writers has fluttered her wings for centuries, so we had to capture her essence in a very neo-burlesque manner – and after that, shrink her right down into Petite size!

This illustrated outfit comes with an eclectic mix of natural latex, lace and satin as either long sleeved bodice or full body catsuit mesh clothing layers. The low cut collar can be worn with prim attachment made of black latex roses, ruffles and flexi frills, with a matching bottom decor of the bodice as well as a gorgeous little head dress and tiny ankle boots. All with or without sugar cubes of course in case you don’t feel quite a sweet some day ;) And to give it the final touch, fairy wings burlesque style, with and without particles while you’re flying.

As well included is an UPDATE CHECK to keep you up to date with every piece of this outfit – please find all details of content after the content listing.

You should find the following things in your new couture box:

The ‘Green Muse’ of artists and writers has fluttered her wings for centuries, so we had to capture her essence in a refreshing neo-burlesque manner. So no surprise the green Fairy comes with a lot of green – and sugar cubes, naturally!

The low cut collar can be worn with prim attachment made of black latex roses, ruffles and flexi frills, with a matching bottom decor of the bodice and a gorgeous little head dress. All with or without sugar cubes of course in case you don’t feel quite a sweet some day ;) The long black latex gloves come with prim attachment top option. And to give it the final touch, fairy wings burlesque style.

Those attachments that may require resizing can be adjusted by touch through a resize and stretch menu. Please see included notecard for details.

Shoes are NOT part of the costume – worn for the ad are different releases by other SL creators.
