FeliciaDivine: Hi everyone, today we are sitting in with one of IMVU’s best party people who loves Mardi Gras and Halloween. She also has some of the most fun scary products and AP furniture. One of my most favorite people…GlitteredPinky!!!
GlitteredPinky: omg
Breseth: wooohooo
FeliciaDivine: so let’s scare everyone from the get go…where do you live Pinky?
GlitteredPinky: I live near Mobile, Alabama, which is the home of Mardi Gras – not New Orleans like everyone thinks! A man by the name of Joe Cain started Mardi Gras and in Mobile we have a Joe Cain Day. Everything is closed – schools, businesses, everything! And everyone is invited to march in the Joe Cain parade. Joe Cain is pulled by mules, as was the first Joe Cain, followed by his widows, all dressed in black, handing out black roses and black beads; followed by his mistresses, all dressed in red, handing out red roses; and now we have Joe Cain’s granddaughters, all dressed in PINK, handing out pink roses! I have the honor of being the recipient of several black roses with the actual names of the widows on them, and several red roses with the actual names of the mistresses’ on them! As you can tell, I could go on forever about Mardi Gras, and Mobile, Alabama!
FeliciaDivine: now that’s a party town 🙂
FeliciaDivine: if i remember correctly you are actively involved with Mardi Gras?
GlitteredPinky: Mobile is more family oriented.
GlitteredPinky: yes, we are. My husband is a member of the Mobile Mystics.
GlitteredPinky: Tom’s Association was incorporated in 1993 and he’s been in it for 3 years now
GlitteredPinky: And, he is lucky enough to ride a float every year, tossing out the goodies, which are called “throws” to everyone. He prefers to throw stuffed animals and beads.
GlitteredPinky: The Mobile Mystics is a Mardi Gras Association, one of many in Mobile.
FeliciaDivine: cool…
GlitteredPinky: They parade is during the day and then have their Ball is at night. Did you know, for example, that his organization spends almost a quarter of a million dollars by the time the rent the space, pay for all of the food, the bands – yes bands plural, and omg the booze alone is enough to help pay for the national budget! Haha!
FeliciaDivine: it’s close to Halloween and you always throw a fantastic party…a lot of your rooms and furniture are custom made…would you say Halloween is also a special time for you?
GlitteredPinky: Absolutely! I love Halloween and “Pinky’s Spider Web” is my Halloween chat room. Almost everything in the room is handmade by me.
GlitteredPinky: I have spiders roaming around the floor that are lanterns, spiders on the wall, guard spiders (did I mention I love spiders?) I even have new spider pets this year and a few spider costumes.
FeliciaDivine: lol
FeliciaDivine: are you planning something special this year?
GlitteredPinky: Just come one come all and let’s have a Halloween Ball (whenever we’re not at the Fashion Show, that is). I’m not planning a special night for a party, it’s just Open House whenever anyone would like to come in and look around. The hay bales are for photo ops, and there’s a photo frame up in the spider web on stage with different poses also for photo ops. Tables and chairs are everywhere and there’s a couch. There are kissing love seats for those love-ghouls, cuddle spider chairs, and well, just come on and see what’s there.
GlitteredPinky: The room is always open, its GA, so anyone can come in and enjoy themselves
GlitteredPinky: The music player/YouTube player is on the wall and looks like a red flashing light rectangle. Oh, and I’ve just made some pretty neat t-shirts for Halloween this year for men and women. Some are ap, but most are ga. Check ‘em out!
FeliciaDivine: i noticed you have AP furniture which is stylish, lots of great poses and that are not often seen. Many people design from the same meshes while you seem to find the unusual…where do you get your inspiration??
GlitteredPinky: I try to find the unusual
GlitteredPinky: I also try to keep my descriptions toned down, in other words, I use sensual words instead of “come right out and say it” words, haha
FeliciaDivine: do you have some favorite designers you look for?
GlitteredPinky: you know, the problem with asking me if I look for a particular mesher for my inspiration is yes and no
GlitteredPinky: omg
Breseth: wooohooo

FeliciaDivine: do you have some favorite designers you look for?
GlitteredPinky: you know, the problem with asking me if I look for a particular mesher for my inspiration is yes and no
GlitteredPinky: I mostly get my ideas from what I see other people wearing for clothes
GlitteredPinky: now for furniture and poses, I go to the catalog and put in what I’m looking for, and that’s where I find most of what I choose and is a particular mesher or two or three
FeliciaDivine: well thats a good answer
FeliciaDivine: when i do a room i pick a couple of keywords, usualy a color…such as for the ice club i used blue, white and ice
GlitteredPinky: and when I make certain furniture, I also use key words
GlitteredPinky: same for poses, so it turns out that I don’t, per se, look for particular meshers, but rather key words first. Sometimes it just happens that I do get particular meshers, though.
GlitteredPinky: And, even though I do make BDSM furniture, poses, etc., I keep those toned down also.
GlitteredPinky: I’m in pain from failed back surgeries and fibromyalgia
GlitteredPinky: so I don’t have my BDSM on the more torturous side – I have it more on the playful and loving side
FeliciaDivine: that is very rough
Breseth: awww
FeliciaDivine: ok, i have just a few more fun questions…
GlitteredPinky: imvu is a very big part of my life
FeliciaDivine: it must be tough dealing with the constant pain…your husband helps?
GlitteredPinky: because of the pain that I have, and the disability that I have, I am limited in the things that I can do physically
GlitteredPinky: yes, he is a tremendous help
GlitteredPinky: bless his heart, he does a lot of the housework, and he makes his own meals because of the special diet i am on
GlitteredPinky: To keep my mind off the pain, imvu is my biggest support
FeliciaDivine: i have multiple sclerosis, so does my sister, being on imvu after retiring i find imvu has given me a new chance to do something new…is it the same for you?
GlitteredPinky: absolutely!
GlitteredPinky: It gives me a purpose, a reason, a family
FeliciaDivine: i find i can get along with people better and learn new things…creating is challenging and fun 🙂
GlitteredPinky: same here
FeliciaDivine: i love my aunt pinky 🙂
GlitteredPinky: Breseth and I have been friends for almost 6 years now and sisters over 5 years
GlitteredPinky: and I love my niece Felicia, Kat, and so many others
GlitteredPinky: I’m an only child of two only children
FeliciaDivine: now that is something i would like to touch on…how did you two meet…Seth you can jump in now 🙂
GlitteredPinky: I have no aunts and uncles and no first cousins
GlitteredPinky: lol
FeliciaDivine: i joined 4 years ago and right away i could tell the both of you were close
GlitteredPinky: yes, very close
GlitteredPinky: I went around visiting my friends one day and one of them was rico, Seth’s bf
GlitteredPinky: she was with him, and it was through him that she and i met
GlitteredPinky: she was on more than he was, and we just gravitated towards each other
GlitteredPinky: we found out we went to rival high schools at the same time!
FeliciaDivine: small world
GlitteredPinky: I used to live in St. Petersburg and she lives in Tampa
GlitteredPinky: I have no sister and she felt like the sister I never had
GlitteredPinky: so we adopted each other as sisters on here
GlitteredPinky: Last year when my husband and i went down to Florida to visit my daughter for Thanksgiving and to take a cruise, we got to meet Seth in person!
GlitteredPinky: It was just like seeing family that I hadn’t seen in years!
Breseth: wooohoo
GlitteredPinky: We kissed and hugged and didn’t want to let go
GlitteredPinky: haha
FeliciaDivine: 🙂
GlitteredPinky: we sometimes finish each other’s sentences
GlitteredPinky: just like real sisters do
GlitteredPinky: she is my best friend, hands down
GlitteredPinky: a lot of people say, well imvu is make-believe
GlitteredPinky: it’s a game
GlitteredPinky: it’s not real
GlitteredPinky: well, for me it’s as real as you want it to be
GlitteredPinky: and I want it to be real with a lot of people
GlitteredPinky: we may be cartoons to a lot of people, but remember, we are real people making these cartoons do and say what we want them to do and say
GlitteredPinky: we have feelings
GlitteredPinky: we ARE real
FeliciaDivine: i agree, you and seth feel like family to me as well and you do act like sisters, dont think i have not noticed :p
GlitteredPinky: and i have the heart to prove it
GlitteredPinky: haha
GlitteredPinky: i have the heart in every one of my avatars
GlitteredPinky: (makes heart beat)
FeliciaDivine: ok i have to go back to a design question…can you explain the BLORANGE phenomenom!!!
GlitteredPinky: haha
GlitteredPinky: okay
GlitteredPinky: My blorange is a combination of blonde and orange
GlitteredPinky: I sort of came upon a texture one day and improved upon it
FeliciaDivine: you have a fantastic line of blorange products…hair, dresses, furniture…what made you think of it…
GlitteredPinky: I took the blonde and married it with orange and viola’
FeliciaDivine: it is a great idea
GlitteredPinky: blorange
GlitteredPinky: I thought how pretty! how unusual! how different!
GlitteredPinky: I like different things
GlitteredPinky: just like the first thing I usually make has to be pink
FeliciaDivine: it is unusual, unique and FUN!
GlitteredPinky: if it looks good, I will make a blorange of whatever it is too
FeliciaDivine: lol, yes Aunt Pinky…has to have one of everything in PINK!!! 🙂
GlitteredPinky: just for fun
GlitteredPinky: absolutely
GlitteredPinky: and if i can’t find it in pink, I’ll see if I can derive it and make it in pink
GlitteredPinky: like my little pet spider I just made
GlitteredPinky: I thought she was so cute in black, but what fun to have a pink one (and now I’m making a blorange one,, too)
GlitteredPinky: lol
GlitteredPinky: oh, and I’d like to say something
GlitteredPinky: I’m the type of person on here who is an honest person
GlitteredPinky: I put it out there like it is
GlitteredPinky: I don’t lie
GlitteredPinky: I don’t steal
MrsSnookieTaylor has joined the chat
GlitteredPinky: if you don’t want to know my honest opinion, don’t ask me
FeliciaDivine: (hugs grandma)
GlitteredPinky: hi mom
MrsSnookieTaylor: hi kids
GlitteredPinky: One thing I would like to say is, Seth was a creator before I was. She kept after me until I *tried* it myself. And imvu hasn’t been the same since! haha
FeliciaDivine: Pinky before we finish is there anything you would like to add such as what you would like to see happen on imvu, any changes? Do you have any plans?
GlitteredPinky: I would love to see imvu have an AP Photo Stream!
FeliciaDivine: theres a good idea
SexyKy: yea it is
MrsSnookieTaylor: that wont happen
GlitteredPinky: We can’t show our latest ap clothes on regular photo stream so what I normally do is advertise in pulse
SexyKy: and a way to reset our passwords through text like we do our email and stuff
GlitteredPinky: and you can’t show pics there
MrsSnookieTaylor: we all know imvu
GlitteredPinky: unfortunately
SexyKy: mhm
GlitteredPinky: but just like GA’s can’t see AP, it would be the same way with an AP Photo Stream
SexyKy: right
FeliciaDivine: makes sense
MrsSnookieTaylor: right
GlitteredPinky: I do make a lot of AP clothes, furniture, etc.
GlitteredPinky: and there’s no way for me to get it out there
GlitteredPinky: and I’m paying vip so I don’t get advertisements, so when I pay to be ap, why can’t that include the priviledge of having somewhere to show my ap products if you are a vip also?
GlitteredPinky: it’s not right
GlitteredPinky: oh, and another thing I’d love to see
FeliciaDivine: go ahead
GlitteredPinky: sometimes I like to go and chat
GlitteredPinky: where it says “Chat Now”
GlitteredPinky: where you meet someone in that little coffee shop
MrsSnookieTaylor: yes
GlitteredPinky: you know what I’m talking about?
FeliciaDivine: yes
MrsSnookieTaylor: yes
GlitteredPinky: I would love it if we could put an age there of someone we’d like to chat with
GlitteredPinky: I’m always getting these 18 year old boys
SexyKy: oh my
GlitteredPinky: I jump right out
MrsSnookieTaylor: omg
GlitteredPinky: haha
MrsSnookieTaylor: no way
SexyKy: i don’t do the chat now and stay in freinds only
FeliciaDivine: i would also like to be able to preset the room to my personal room instead of the coffee shop
GlitteredPinky: just like in Get+Matched
MrsSnookieTaylor: i dont use chat now
SexyKy: me either
GlitteredPinky: why can’t we preset the age of the person we want to talk to?
SexyKy: right
GlitteredPinky: from this age to that age?
GlitteredPinky: I’d love to see that happen
GlitteredPinky: the coffee shop is fine with me
GlitteredPinky: that way I can leave
GlitteredPinky: haha
FeliciaDivine: that should be a simple matter of programming
GlitteredPinky: well, you heard a user
FeliciaDivine: yep
GlitteredPinky: it’s a waste of time to keep trying and trying until I can chat with someone within my own age group
GlitteredPinky: and i know there are people on here within my age bracket
GlitteredPinky: I’m in pain from failed back surgeries and fibromyalgia
GlitteredPinky: so I don’t have my BDSM on the more torturous side – I have it more on the playful and loving side
FeliciaDivine: that is very rough
Breseth: awww

Editor’s comments: Pinky is special to me and i know there are thousands of great people out there just like you readers so come out and party or just chat. IMVU is not a game it’s a way to enjoy life!
