the idiots crying copyright no nothing about copyright laws, YOU CAN NOT COPYRIGHT A SHOE, period!
I’m not so sure that #4 is actually about Luna in this case. Her “CSR” is quite easily just as much of a whore. She was trying to bag herself a Very Popular New DJ just a couple weeks ago, and now she’s already partnered to her new man. Guess that first choice didn’t pan out.
Is the last ‘secret’ about the blogger whose freckle-faced avi is involved in a three-way relationship on SL, with her RL hubby and his gay lover?
Just a comment here…..She does not deserve this vitrol being spewed at her. What happened happened, and none of you know the situation. Luna is someone I will hold dear to me, no matter what has happened. Say what you want about me, that’s fine, but you know, shame on some of you for making assumptions and spreading more ignorance.
Is that your wife and kids I hear calling you? Maybe you should go take care of that.
Ignorance? Wow. That’s rich coming from you. Just a comment.
So what, tons of people use RL life influences and copys, for all sorts even houses, Scarlet Creative use real life architect plans she even says so on SCD blog noone cares

Oh look Elle Cresendro is back. How do I know? 1 her extensive stalking to find a posted comment six years ago not even Google search would find and 2 oh yes a comment to try and again bring up the creator she RL bullied and stalked.
OBSESSION MUCH
How is public information available to anyone possibly stalking? I’ve seen you lot spew up all sorts of drivel from further back than that.
Oh nooooos you must be obessed looking for comments you can blame on Elle lol, you must be Char herself or a fanzgurl, you tell big fat lies just like she does
Hahahahahaha. Literally Elle just used multiple IPs to write every single one of those comments.
That’s a dedicated whacko.
I love highlighting psycho bullies so their power to harm is removed.
You got outed and now you just bleat on each week trying to do more damage to kind people.
Every time you do. It will be called out removing the impact you try to cause.
Play nice Elle. We all saw the previous links here so it’s over you got caught.
You’re just as bad as she is You’re like a dog with a bone
You keep giving this person fuel. Why you don’t just ignore her is beyond me.
You are the stalker you are the liar you are obessed. Week after week you prowl this blog looking to blame a phantom stalker you’re a joke lol. How would you know what IP adresses are posted her Indigo uhh how would you know come on are you a mod, have you hacked the blog on your obessive frenzy
I wonder why she keeps doing it? It’s not like people don’t know it’s her and it’s obvious she can’t help herself as every week yawn she posts about this one creator.
I hope she realizes most of us aren’t stupid. Someone posted think it was here she has been doing this for 7 years. I can’t imagine having somebody that obsessed with me. It’s way too creepy and messed up.
I’m sad for you, why would you fake a stalker and blame it somone else who no longer even plays the game? You have always worn this so called stalker thing like a badge, so many claims of so many stalkers over the years, it’s really wierd behavior “dana” if that’s what you want to call yourself today. Does it make you feel important, do you think it makes you seem like you’re popular?
yeah their stuff is really good Scarlett is one of my favorite designers.
#1 TRUTH
Creators: why should I pay for it when you give it away to anyone who asks? Why should I give you my money when it seems so worthless to you?
Everyone speaks badly about noobs asking for 10L for a profile picture, or some other random shit, and hypocrites make bloggers out to be leeches, but individuals openly welcome and encourage this kind of behaviour?
You just lost my custom, well done.
#1 kind of reminds me of a website I saw once where someone wrote a bunch of companies letters saying they liked their products and wondering if they could have a free item. At least half of the companies wrote back and sent something, even if it was just coupons or a keychain.
Luna is an old whore. She’s sly and will do just about anything to climb up on a dick. My friends and I all fucked her as a going joke. She thought she was being slick but in reality she was getting dicked. She bangs alright, when her ex was banging other women I was banging her and a few of my friends banged her too. She’s a frequent rider on the bangbus locomotive
Luna’s been !banged more times than an old drum kit.
Even if she hasn’t banged them, she’s tried. I’ve had quite a few male friends tell me of how she tried to fuck them and they turned her down. I suppose when you’re not getting laid in RL by your own husband, you’ll find any pixel that will in SL.
It wasn’t me, it couldn’t have been me because I have never slept with Luna.
who is luna
Hi Sands
Have you ever read anything that Sands has typed? That wasn’t typed by Sands. Also, I kinda believe Sands would just sign is name.
However, I feel bad for anyone that has ever stuck their virtual dick in Luna. Gross. Except maybe simpeguy. He kind of deserved that mess.
Boy does he deserve it!
I don’t get it. Everyone knows it’s lame to make Hello Kitty or Disney copyright junk. But now we aren’t supposed to use pinterest or tumblr for ideas?
Don’t you think you’re going a little too far with your petty bullshit?
I have an idea. Get up. Go stand in front of the nearest mirror. Now repeat after me – “I am a fat, ugly, worthless, jealous, unloved skank and I have nothing better to do than try to insult other people”
In fact, most people who post on here are welcome to try this exercise.
go back to tumblr, eilfie
looking for ideas or inspiration is not the same as making the same copy to resell other people’s ideas because they are good
at least change them to make them yours
I think the money should be shared with the original RL creators though, that is why royalties IRL exist, but law in SL does not. If I saw something I sold IRL being re-sold in SL I would fight for my rights
Really? It’s necessary to resort to telling the person to feel ugly?
Copying ideas exactly from RL may be unoriginal, but it’s hardly illegal, except in rare cases where a design gets patented. In fact, you see it happen in RL all the time. Walmart, Target and plenty of other stores of the kind carry knock off versions of big name purses. The difference is, no logo.
Styles get copied. Sometimes exactly. Sometimes intentionally and sometimes by accident.
The problem is with copybotting and IP theft. Pretty damn sure this does not qualify as IP theft unless the original designer has protected the design somehow. And since I’ve seen this style of shoe (with various tweaks) many times over the years from different brands, I doubt it has been patented.
Sigh, it’s all very simple people. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it and then move on with your life.
Stop bitching and moaning. It’s not helping you, nor anyone else. If you’re feeling that chip on your shoulder, perhaps it’s time to get out of that overly comfortable chair, lay down the cheesy poofs, dust off the crumbs on your shirt and go and get some actual real sunlight. Try it, you may just start feeling better about yourself and you might actually gain a little perspective and see that all these things that you seem to think are so important, are in fact so petty and insignificant in the grand scheme of things.
If more people did that, then perhaps they wouldn’t have such sad lives.

You tell em Lucie!
#6 Thank you for submitting this secret. I was wondering if the owner/organizers are blind. They never fit to any event’s theme they are taking part in. How can they still be part of all the events? I am so sick of this creator making latex or whatever they make for EVERY F**KING EVENTS. And I am sure there would be more customers feel the same way. Please event people, kick them off for god’s sake. There are so many designers doing better than this.
Ooooookay wait a minute here….hold up! I have been to C88. Have you? Did you notice the empty “stalls”? As in the spaces they DIDN’T manage to fill with a designer? So, you see…they have space for these way better designers you speak of. It’s not like this admittedly crappy designer is holding up a space and preventing a better designer from being there. Just put your big girl (or big boy) panties on and cam away from this designer. Yes, they make the same sh*t every month. Yes, it never fits the theme. Yes, it’s poorly made. Ignore it and move on with your life. I feel lame for even responding to this, but I have already typed it so I might as well post it.
I think you got me wrong. I am sorry to confuse you with my last sentence. I did NOT mean ‘better designer’ as those ones already in the event. I don’t think they are only designers in whole SL. Those empty/belated stalls bother me as much as the one posted here.
What about to accept NEW designers to fill the spaces and replace crappy ones? New designers who are willing to contribute proper item (and also in time) for the event they are in.
C88 is a big event. Every month I have to wait for few days trying to tp in, which means there are lots of customers eagerly visiting there. If I were a shop owner/designer, I would be dying to be part of the event. If the owner/organizer send out notice to the group looking for new participants, there will be a lot of creators apply.
Of course this is just my opinion and there might be variety of rules about who can be in for each events. The decisions are up to the event owner/organizers.
I hope you understand what I mean. And thank you for your comment as I could explain more about my thoughts. Have a nice day.
I saw this too! I was a tad confused why this person is missing the boat on the theme every time and totally still hangin out as a permanent designer in that event. This secret is a goodens haha.
Im eager to see what christmas item they will make 😀 Bathing suits all the way!
If red with white fur around the butt it could work (not) LOL
that begger messaged me too 🙂 I gave them (not sure if its a man or a woman) something for free as well. heck maybe my name is on that list! Anyways just to clear up one thing that I found incredibly inspiring and refreshing about this character is that they didnt ask for money. They actually say “Hi. Im a begger. Can I have SOMETHING for free?” They dont ask for money.
To me this begger is a “personality” and its really amusing in a way how they actually are getting nice things from “designers/creators” that most people think are just the world and everything thats amazing in Secondlife.
I’m not sure why people gave him so much Linden when he’s not even asking for money in the first place 😀 that kinda made me laugh because the designers (most) knew that he gives recognition in his list, for the people that gave him things. So its like, here have 10K Linden and im gunna get my name on that list as the baddest b****. That was more silly then the actual fact this guy is begging for something free. He would have been happy with a cube!
Let him alone yah buttbruisedjerk!!!
#6 – I’m glad that someone else notices this. It’s been a running joke between myself and my friends for a while now. The fact they release the same thing month after month and are still taking up space is beyond me.
Why on earth do you care if she creates something from a rl picture. WHY does it matter? Today I am going to make a thing that I see in a picture off of google. Then im going to upload it to second life and yep I’m going to tick the little box that allows me to set it for sale. if people want to buy it, they can buy it. The shoes she made are really cute. As a creator I look through google and do stuff. If i like it in RL maybe I want to have them in SL. I do not see what the F*** the big issue is here. You maggots like to target a select few designers to prove they are doing something so terrible??? when EVERYONE is doing this. Go wiggle back into your pile of turd.
i’ve purchased items off of etsy simply for the novelty of having clothing/accessories on both my SL avatar and my RL body. seriously, EVERY designer uses real life products as inspiration. this includes truth hair (who even posts his reference pics on flickr), this includes furniture and home decor shops, and of course, this includes shit tons of clothing, shoes, accessories, blah blah blah. TSG just has enough of a loyal following to have a few enthusiastic haters as well. that’s it.
whoever you are, your jealousy is pretty hilarious. A+ for effort. maybe if you reduced the time you spend furiously masturbating to eilfie and making secrets, and put it into improving your craft, you’d become a mildly popular niche brand.. instead of an invisible shit stain on an otherwise flourishing market.
Eilfie is on fire!
i guess my secret admirer is back. ♡
*shrug* ive never copied another sl designer as a commenter claimed. not sure what thats about. and yea my unicorn necklace was inspired by cck and it came out different bc i wanted it that way. dafuq? and i wont be shamed for doing what other designers do all the time by pulling rl inspo. so yea. nothing new here. thanks for the promotion though. kawaii fair opens today, guys!
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Tiger%20Bay/185/38/22
woohoo time to go spend on non creative replica goodies
the cck necklace looks exactly like the cck unicorn except that the face of yours look like it melted, why would you make it different like that if it wasn’t by a mistake? lol
cause its actually cuter to me that way and reminded me of something from my childhood lol. you sound really salty and jealous right now. 😀
So just because someone doesn’t like your items makes them jealous? Get off your high horse, or donkey (a**), whatever you want to call it. Sometimes people just don’t like your items and find them bad looking.
Kawaii isn’t cute to some (such as myself, so you can’t throw the jealous cliche’ my way), just like coming out with items that aren’t original.
Basically you’re just copy/pasting to SL. No honor in that.
fuck off you dipshit
I could probably guarantee the people who are THIS upset about creators using RL designs as inspiration for their products are the same people who are trying to sell copybotted items on the MP. In their heads, copybotting SL mesh is the same as copying a RL design. Despite the actual effort that creators put into making items.
Instead of bashing stores like TSG, go waste your efforts on boycotting real copybotters
Get your priorities straight you absolute fucktard.
Just got my own pair! Love them! And as for original, why are you going after someone who takes time to make beautiful original meshes and textures when you can go to the anybody event and the showroom and there are ten thousand pairs of shitty applier thongs, latex bodysuits and shitty google image tattoos. Eilfie produces beautiful handmade work. Who gives a fuck about inspiration, designers steal from other designers all the time. Hair designers copy hairstyles from real ones in real life, you don’t see people freaking out at Truth because he copies hairstyles of google images in real life. By the way “cute”,, where is your mesh? I bet it looks like a glob of melted shit. As for copying and pasting into second life, leave that for Essences. Try taking hours in a mesh modeling program making the beautiful mesh for these shoes and hours in photoshop making the textures.
no, it looks derpy
just like your face
Who gives a flying fuck where the shoes came from, unless she copybotted them from someone else, everything in sl is inspired by something from rl so, I dont get the big shoe up everyone’s ass about someone making something from rl??? what is wrong with you people! bigger things to worry about then oh someone made that from an rl item.
how about i copy your fat face and sell on sl
#3 It’s a known fact that TSG is a copycat. Usually I’m able to tell what she copied just by looking or google-fu; I didn’t know where these shoes came from, but there you go… I lol’d hard at her unicorn necklace, it is a failed attempt at copying Cute Can Kill Dreamy Crystal Pegasus. Hers ended up all wonky and derpy.
She says she is just inspired but it’s all a blatant copy. She used to be worse, and slap the logo straight from the original store on the items.
She also takes her “inspiration” from other SL sellers.
Some of the biggest designers in SL “borrow” from RL. Trompe, Floor Plan, Cheeky Pea, Fri.Day, just to name a few. I can’t tell you how many times I have come across an image on Tumblr and went, “Duh! So THAT’S where they got the idea.” I’m not sure it’s actually ripping off as much as a lack of creativity but even the best designers need a little help from time to time. It’s exhausting coming up with original ideas all the time.
Not sure what point you’re trying to make here, Cute can kill rips their pegasus designs from Angelic Pretty prints; almost going as far as to trace them before creating them. They all rip off each other.
If you are seriously trying to blame Eilfie for making a replica of a replica of a replica then maybe we should start suing Automatic Honey, Cute Can Kill and all the other Etsy designers who get their inspiration from AP and Sanrio.
As for the replica debate in SL.. Should we not be pointing fingers at the designers who take designs from small, independent designers on etsy? Isn’t it kind of disgusting to see a big SL designer earn more than the RL designer? Never seen TSG do that; but I HAVE seen other brands do it.
Pretty sure most of the shoes TSG has used as inspiration have already been replicated to the ends of the earth and are on Taobao by now; that’s why you see them so much on Tumblr.
Huh? just because a stealer does it does not make it right for the other thieves.
It’s not okay to rip, doesn’t matter where your source is from. SL allows plenty of creativity. Why make a replica? I don’t see another reason other than to make money of popular designs.
I was trying to make the point that everybody inside and outside of SL does this. Why are you targeting TSG when other designers are clearly ripping off the less successful?
I’m not the one who posted the secret. But TSG is a shop I occasionally see around because I’m into the ‘kawaii’ trend, I always stumble upon her products. She always -always- make replicas, it’s hard for me not to notice, it’s always an insta-recognizable RL product/persona. I don’t know about other shops that make BLATANT copies, maybe subtle ones I do, or they are crappy shops fading into oblivion. But feel free to name and shame others.
One example, the sailor moon fair, lots of things were inspired (color schemes, schoolgirl clothes, unicorn/stars theme, etc). TSG made replica wands altering minor details and claims they were just “inspired”. She doesn’t even admit they are copies, with no creativity put into them at all. There are others, yes, but TSG already passes the image of “replica” to me whenever I see it, and it’s everywhere (fairs, events, blogs).
Yes. Let’s go and pick at something at a sailor moon fair. Pretty sure it was more than just her, and pretty sure not all designers plastered “inspired by sailor moon” on their products. What a stupid example to use. So what if she recreates things in sl? She’s very skilled in mesh. What she does with that talent is her business. If you want more original content then make it.
#5. She more than likely did NOT commit suicide but is probably on an alt because that’s the only way she knew how to handle things.
#5. If this is about who I think it’s about, and I am pretty certain it is. She did pass away. I saw the obituary, and I people did contact the RL family. And if she did commit suicide instead of passing away in the way the family reported….well, I don’t believe it would be simply due to you being a RL woman. There would have to be way more going on there to push her to leave her RL family. I know that won’t help your guilt, but I don’t think you caused her death and to be honest I still believe the family. I don’t believe she committed suicide.
#4. That’s because she’s probably just partnered that same jackass on one of his MANY alts. She’s been doing it for YEARS and lying about him.
Cade can’t be an alt of the jackass. He’s not wearing the typical Redgrave skin and his profile isn’t filled with stupid.
