The Pixels in Pink ladies are at it again! They've designed their campsite, appropriately named PiP Film Noir, to be a brilliant mix of greyscale and ... pink! The ladies, Torrid Midnight, Zyrra Falcone, Hosequeen McLean, Pukk Abel, Rose Farina, Stella Costello, Fallingwater Cellardoor, Nephilaine Protagonist, and several others, have created an element of mystery and awe that just calls to you.

A very tired, overworked Stella Costello mentioned that she was making a Machinima this morning and I'm sharing it with you! As you can see from the film, there are auctions, vendors, flowers, dancing, a theater, and even PIE! Please stop by and donate or purchase items if you can, as all proceeds go to the American Cancer Society.

Just as a reminder, Relay For Life officially starts at 2pm SLT/PDT today, but the sims are open now to explore.

The GNUbie store is the brainchild of Jai Nomad who has been a Second Life resident since July 2003. The place is simply packed with L$0 and L$1 items, with consistently high quality. The two level building houses the work of residents both recent and far-from-recent; even the venerable Toy LaFollette still has her work displayed here.

For the most part the store is laid out in such a way that even folks who have a little trouble with their camera controls can still use it fairly well and there is a wide range of interesting goods to be picked up here, some of which can be modified, and many of which are transferable.

Valentines Day has long stood for gifts and romance, but in Second Life, it takes on a whole new meaning: FREEBIES! Two sets of fashion houses in Second Life are holding HUGE scavenger hunts. Of course, Second Life Insiders get the scoop here.

The first one is held by Hosequeen McLean and Zyrra Falcone, of Panache. It is open to everyone, so you don't need to be a member of their group to participate. The object is to find 11 hearts hidden around their island. Inside these hearts is an insane amount of awesome goodies, such as skin, hair, clothes, and shoes. Their hunt ends at Midnight, so don't wait!

The second one is being held by "The Quad", which consists of ETD, Canimal, Celestial Studios, and Last Call. Please note that you must be a part of one of these groups to participate, but they're all open enrollment. There are three times when you can participate, but you can only win a prize once. You must complete the scavenger hunt in order and there will be different clues each time.

For a complete set of rules, visit the sims. The hunt times are as follows:

• 02/14/07 10 AM PST (Euro Friendly) *Kicks off on ETD*
• 02/14/07 3 PM PST *Kicks off on Celestial City*
• 02/14/07 7 PM PST *Kicks off on Dazzle*
