DESIGNERS WANTED!! AUTISM SPEAKS IN SECOND LIFE NEEDS YOU!

As you all know, I am Daphne Molinari. I've been a resident here for over 4 years and have watched many of you grow and prosper here in SL. I have started a fund raising organization called Autism Speaks in Second Life. With the huge success of Relay for Life, which I have been a supporter of for the past 2 years, I felt it was time to bring a new worthy cause here.

With the help of many friends here in SL it's time to launch and start raising awareness about Autism and the many levels on the Autism Spectrum to try and make a difference. There are many groups in SL that bring awareness about Autism, but this is the first that will work hand in hand with Autism Speaks to raise money for research and funding for families that have children, teenagers and adults in need of therapy.

What I am looking for is designers and content creators willing to donate items, for events that will be taking place here in world. This weekend kicks off an event hosted by the SL Starfleet.

Many of you have recieved a folder that I passed out, with a Kiosk and some literature about Autism Speaks. I am proud to say that with just the placement of that kiosk in world we've already raised about 60k L to donate.

If you would like to donate items please send them to Daphne Stephanopolis, (my alter ego) or Daphne Molinari. Also if you have any questions or would like to sponsor an event please do not hesitate to contact me in world.

Thank you in advance for your time! I look forward to hearing from you.

Daphne

In Memory of Ginny Talamasca.

My deepest sympathies go out to Katterina, his family and friends, and those who had the pleasure of experiencing his work.

I never really had the chance to get to know Ginny as I would have liked to. We often get so busy with our lives here as well as the real world, and sometimes take for granted that when we log back in, things may not always be as they should be.

I regret not taking that moment to reach out and say how much I had admired his work, thinking that hey...I'll send a note tomorrow. I know he will be missed very much by those that were close to him, and my thoughts and prayers are with you all in this time of sorrow.

Me and My Wacom...

Sometimes you get the urge to play and today it was with hair again, I've done a bunch like these but this time I used a Wacom pen...WHY oh WHY can't we have hair like this in game...? *sigh*

Family in need of a little love...

Sorry I have not been around much, I had a death in the family and other RL things going on. I came across this email from a friend and I believe that I can count on the support of my SL friends to help this family achieve their goals!

(in options just mention that you are a friend of Lori)

I'm not sure if you all know of that Extreme Makeover Home Edition show.

But there's a family in CT with two girls who have deteriorating muscle illnesses. They live in an old colonial, but in the early 1900s and my friend John, the sports editor of the paper, is trying to get them on the show. They need 30,000 signatures and we have nearly 2400. Its easy, just sign it then forward it along to some other people.

Thanks everyone.

Lori (aka Daphne Molinari)

"This is a 'must have' for any musician, writer or lyricist! No doubt, there will be statesmen and government copywriters using this program for speech writing (if they aren’t already!). This software is a 'no-brainer' for inclusion into school programs and as an adjunct tool within the curriculums; it is simple enough to be used at the grade school and high school levels and provides such advanced features that university students will benefit greatly by using it as well! This very well may be the 'killer app.' of the lyrical world and it’s FREE!"More...

Grand Opening of Mirage

DaFly Designs and Daphne's Delights cordially invite you to come check out their new home for their designs on their SIM Mirage.

Relax on the beach or chill in the cafe, Daphne and Fly look forward to introducing their new home for their designs as well as designs from Cynful Sol and Animations by Pose Perfect.

Miss me much?

OK OK OK so I'm not the greatest blogger in history but I promise to get better at it... I swear!

Things have been a bit hectic to say the least...I've become a builder of sorts, have traded in the textures of fashion to plunge right into building a SIM...twice. Yeah... just smack me for starting something and us not really feeling it, to tear it down and start again. But hey, they say practice makes perfect. This time around though Fly and I are really diggin the new look and hopefully will have it up and running BEFORE the year 2510 ... alright that is a bit extreme, how bout before St. Patty's Day 2007? *cracks up*

Seems as if my blog template worked out perfect, since the SIM theme is like a boardwalk, fishermans wharf kinda feel and my favorite lighthouse standing tall to bring all you SL'ers home to us... *smiles*

More to come in the near future, with my new Wacom pen staring at me daily... I will be back in the fashion world soon ... I promise!

Much luv,
Daph

Slowly but surely...

As I try to do a million things at once I've added some links to the sidebar. With the wedding a little over a month away and Fly and I preparing to purchase the SIM, things have been hectic. We've been getting together so many things and me with my SL ADHD (yes it exists!) and RL getting ready for the kids to go back to school my to do lists have aquired their own to do lists and are preparing for a sequel.

But don't you fret...I will be posting more often and getting new things into Daphne's Delights, as well as Fly releasing some great things for DaFly Designs which will be introduced mid October!

Till next time...

Welcome to Daphne's Delights

Welcome to my blog, my name is Daphne Molinari, and I am a designer in a platform called Second Life. I primarily design clothing, but every now and then I will find something new to create and will post about it here too. I have been in Second Life just over 2 years and it has become a daily part of my life to meet with friends, other designers and spend time with a very special person in my life, Fly Michelson. Fly and I have been together now just about 2 years and have decided to move forward and wed in game as well as become designing partners. Within the next few months you will see some changes to our forthcoming SIM. DaFly Inc. our joint venture, will consist of many stores and a wide variety of items.

I do hope you will come by and visit often, for I am sure there will be much here for you to see. I will introduce you to some very talented designers that I know, and feature links to their work as well.

Daphne
