Calling all photographers

After purchasing the Photolife 3 and a million and one poses and props, I have a new found love of photography. However I have come to the conclusion that I'm just not "there" yet :) So in light of this I have decided to outsource the photography work where I can. As we all know, image is very important and I want to put TempT's best face forward! I have seen some pretty amazing work by photographers such as Ooh la la and some other amazing works while shoping for poses at Essential Soul Studio N Poses. I am also seeing photo contests are making a very big appearance all over too. So I have been debating about doing something similar for those who love photography and are skilled/pros- with no place to go. Of course this is just a thought really, and I am not even sure its possible or worth while to even persue-so I thought I would present this to you!
A contest could help us pick the best of the best to help us put our face and name out there. The winner would get full access/use of my studio location to use for their own business purposes and full use of my own PL3 and all the bits and pieces that go with it- in exchange for photography work for TempT. The studio would be converted into a full-on photography shop with an elegant style designed for optimal customer service for the artist.
So now to find out if this is worth persuing. Feedback anyone? Ideas?

Oh and I forgot...The July Giftie


This month I was inspired to create a different kind of mermaid av...Introducing Naeco the 'cat'fish mermaid avatar! She is a nekko-loving mermaid all dressed up :) She includes the skin with kitty make up, tail and fins, paw print top, Mask, and kitty collar. Oh and did I mention she is free for July? Naeco is this month's VIP group giftie! Just wear your group tags and find her in one of the shop spots at the main shop! Much love to all the TempT'd fans ;)

And for the gentlemen, I have been workin on some designer wear for you as well. Check out the new releases and watch for the upcoming new stuffs in the next week!

Finishing touches for the new island look

With the new build up for a week now, I have managed to see what some of the issues are. For starters, its a bit too scattered with no direction. Another issue seems to be where to put the modern fashions. I ran out of room in the tiny cottage fast. So we have started a bigger build to house all new product and modern fashions/home decor. Its still not going to be as huge as the castle thank goodness, but it will provide a focal point for shoppers. The ability to shop for distinct fantasy items will still be available of course, since there will still be Mercove, the Caves, and the Tree/Stumps. But there will be just a bit more "togetherness also offered. Best of both worlds! So after careful deliberation, we decided to design the main area shop as old ruins with several levels. It will be a fun project but will look a bit messy so please forgive! If you have any other ideas that would go with the theme of things, I would love to hear them.

TempT's Got A New Look!

As of July 1st, we have a whole new look! Down went the TempT castle walls and in its place has sprung a mighty mystical forest and even lovelier Mercove...seething with magic and wonder! I am still playing around with the placement of the product. It is very difficult to catagorize distinctly so I found ;) Explore all of TempT'd Forest including the Elven Treehouse, the Fairy Stump, The Unusual Caves, and the little Elven house that rests in the forest, and coming soon will be the Acorn shop for tinies and little tykes!
With all that glistening newness you know there has to be goodies right? right??!? To start of the month, we jumped on board the Cinderella's Lost Shoe Hunt by Total Betty and yet another Gone Fishing Event by Coul Creations.
For the CLSH, the hint is " One shouldn't wear heels while climbing big trees".
For those who love to fish, join us on the docks for the Gone Fishing hunt. Prizes must be fished for! I am also finishing up the July Group Giftie and will have it out tonight :)
