» IC-Skins Notes on Your New Skin

Thank you for purchasing a skin created by Ina Centaur.

Although, our skins are optimized for fast loading and quality the following tricks may help:
1. edit > preferences > graphics > custom
* bump maping and shiny
* basic shaders
* TURN OFF atmospheric shaders
* Lighting Detail: Nearby local lights

2. Wear a face light

3. Press Ctrl alt R to rebake a few times if needed. (This is especially useful if you are on a wireless or old connection, where your face de-rezzes a lot. Your face should rez a few seconds after ctrl-alt-R depending on the lag at your sim.)

And you should look dazzling. As good as the ad pic, but as yourself! I promise!

We’re in here for the art more than the commerce, and thus unlike other skin stores, we rarely tint a skin and call it a “new” product. None of our skins look generic. Each has its own distinct look because each one is made from scratch. Each purchase helps fund the creation of a new skin. And, we believe that each purchase helps make another avatar on Second Life look more unique. Thank you, once again.

Also includes convenient necklace, which you can hang your logo on. Winia is a pack based on my latest skin releases in my store IC-Skins on Second Life.
