POPPY Girl

Another long break, I'm afraid, due to some RL work....but finally a new release! Six new bikinis perfect for escaping the winter chill and finding a sunny paradise to sink your toes in the sand. (Just in time for cruise season!) Available individually and as a six-pack, the Endless Summer Collection includes Tahitian Mango, Pacific Princess, Sweet Aloha, Coconut Lime, Bahama Breeze and Hawaiian Sunrise. Available now at my main store in Venice Beach!

Having observed a day of protest with the community, POPPY's doors are once again open. This includes the main store and all other locations (with the exception of West Indies in the Tortuga sim, which remained closed by the sim owner as of this writing).

Thank you to those who kept a cool head and provided us with valuable information and commentary. The best overview of the situation in my opinion was undoubtedly Celebrity Trollop's post on the Second Style blog...some much-needed clarity in an emotionally exhausting day.

Sorry for not posting (or releasing new content) for awhile, I've had an avalanche of RL work to deal with the past few weeks...and sadly this post is not a happy one, as I logged on late last night to find myself in the middle of the Copybot mayhem and confusion. The far-reaching implications of this are yet to be seen. (I was disgusted by a few posts I read on the forums, basically saying "hooray! free stuff for everyone!"...a slap in the face to anyone who's worked hard to create anything.)

As of this morning, I have temporarily closed POPPY's main location in Venice Beach. After reading as much as I can about this, I'm not convinced that closing will help, but I do feel strongly that I need to support my fellow content creators who have equally strong convictions that it will.

As I have many, many smaller outlets besides my main store, it will take me some time to close them all (though some of the sims hosting them have closed). I will post again when I re-open.
