    Oh, and a milestone for me. Mike and I have been married THIRTY YEARS as of March 16th. We got married in 1991.  laugh 

    Congratulation!

    Thanks all :)  Well, Mike and I are both ex-military officers, so pearl handled revolvers would be the closest thing to a 9mm or 45 I guess :)  

    Anyway, I used one of my PC+ coupons and got things to 77% to 87% off as I used the PC+ item which was in the newly mad section to help with discounts. The coupon took down the Daz Originals nicely. I didn't get the Egyptian bundle, as the Oasis and outfit came to 5.56 and 4.63, a total of only 10.19 and I got exactly what I wanted instead of paying over 30.00   I think I have other hairs which will be okay for that theme.

    BTW hoping everyone stays safe during this tornado outbreak forming up. I'm already watching that storms intensify from even a few hours ago. Pensacola is probably a bit south of the main threat, but 70mph winds and large hail may occur. I think we'll be okay but I stayed up all night so I'd be on the "awake all night tonight" schedule as the line will hit here at it's worst at midnight to 3am. So I am just now getting some sleep at 5am and I'll "see ya" this afternoon. Have fun shopping. Here was my cart with the PC+ code:

       FIRST IMAGE NOT SHOWN

     

    Grand Total $24.52

    82%

    Subtotal $133.65
    Discount $-109.13
    Estimated Tax $0.00

    Congrats, and may you be married for many many more!

    Supposedly, the traditional gifts for the 30th anniversary are lilies and pearls in some form. Not sure I've ever seen a pearl ... well, anything for men, though. Except maybe cufflinks.

    Pearl-handled revolver?

    May I step in here....

    yes, that thing is a separate item, without the top looks just like an Egypt styled bra

    Ah, okay, there is a Queen of the Nile Outfit.  :) 

  • NovicaNovica Posts: 23,859

    Aha- no more Greek names for hurricanes!   

    I am right in the line of fire for the severe storms, "vivid lightning" according to The Weather Channel. So getting offline and unplugging electronics. We usually lose internet in bad storms, so we'll see.

    dForce Queen of Egypt Outfit (G8F)        Ahmunet (G8F) 

    Just posting before the severe weather gets here. The outfit was a bit frustrating as the skirt below poked through and widening the skirt, enlarging all, etc did not work unless it was waaaay plump. So I just postworked it.  And again, this is Xmasrose's background from the free backgrounds thread. (Linked in the beginning posts at the start of the thread.)

    I Did mean Queen of Egypt outfit, I wrote the wrong name (blame my memory) sorry.... so does that outfit comes with an possibility to remove the shoulder part, and how does it look?

    It's 6am so I'm headed to bed (I have to leave by 2:15pm to go see Mom by 3pm) so I won't have time now to render it- but when I rendered it earlier, I did try to adjust the collar and the wavy part moves but doesn't flatten out. I assume when you say shoulder part, you mean the collar? Yes, you can remove it. It makes the top look like a tank top with nice trim around the arm holes. You can see that in the render I did. What you can't see- the neckline is plain. I think it looks nice, like your classic lines, simple and elegant look.

    Very nice, thanks Novica! I'm not particulary fond of those collars (which I tend to call shoulder parts lol not sure why) so I was curious if it worked without that one. Now I might consider buying it :)

    Congratulations on the 30th Anniversary, Novica - is Mike fully recovered now? (I hope so)

    Ohh.. not bad at all... I quite like that look. I could turn it into a usable but not oversexified tunic/robe thing for a spellcaster. Many thanks Mark :)

    Thank you Mark :)  I just got back home. 

    By the way, have researched and found some things you may not know if you have a WordPress site. If you want your speed to improve, every time you save/update, that adds up to FIVE of those in your load times. (Not technical, don't know how else to explain it.)  To limit it to two:  read this article.   It gives you the code to insert. I just have to find where to insert it over in my host c-panel. 

    And it was a good reminder- comments slow down your site. Don't have them on unimportant articles. 

    I can now fully recommend this post duplicator- works like a charm. Set up a page, then when you go to pages, there will be a "duplicate post" link in addition to the view, edit, edit with Elementor, etc. Click it and "copy of page" comes into the list right below that page. Fantastic! 

    I got another menu eliminator plug-in, don't know if I mentioned it, I don't have the pane open- but those come in handy when playing around with menus or eliminating them from a vendor's template. It has X's to just click and remove the entire thing, instead of having to go through all the sub-menus one by one, etc.

    For anyone who is thinking about doing a website and doesn't have a clue, Wordpress is a good place to start and there's a LOT of step by step instructions. Elementor is a great tool to drag and drop, and there's a free version. :)

    Thanks :)  Yes, he flew home after 10 days and hadn't run a fever at all since Day3 of the episode. That Regeneron really did the trick!
    I'm getting vaccinated tomorrow! It pays to be off schedule because Pensacola New Journal posted about the clinic in their daily edition which comes online at midnight, so I got ahead of all the folks waking up at a normal time.  It's the Moderna. The clinic is twenty minutes from here, about two minutes away from Mom- it's in a nice neighborhood. Some of these clinics at community centers,  I wouldn't even consider going to those areas.
