May I Have Permission?

A customer told me that she was having problems with the Mermaid's Dream AO: it was giving her a script error saying that "the texture is not transferable". I added permissions on the two button textures in the AO, and the problem seems to have gone away.

Getting all of the permissions right on products for sale is an arcane art; I need to go to the Minoan Empire and make the proper sacrifices to the gods, I guess.

Idle Hands...

I spent some time making a few changes to my skybox home the other day. It's still a work in progress.

Fine Print

A couple of Mermaid's Dream customers have complained to me that the Fish Rezzer and/or the Fish Bracelet sometimes don't work. I finally figured out that -- duh -- they can't rez the fish if you don't have build privilege in the parcel. I *cheerfully* refunded their money, and have added a warning on the vendor signs.

It seems like one way out of this quandry would be for SL to allow rezzing of temp objects, even if build of permanent objects is disallowed; but there is probably a good reason why that wouldn't work. *sigh*
