Vavoom! News January 2010

Dear Everyone,

What’s in the Vavoom! News this month? Well…. there are a couple of product updates, two new Weathervanes and New Toys!

.

1. Updates are available for the Cuddle Rugs and for the HUD:

• Rugs are updated to position Widget (The VKC Mutt) and the Polar Bears accurately. Yes, that’s right, the cuddle rugs work with the Polar Bear too.
  (You’ll find that the Beds and Houses work too, the reason that I’m making a mention of the Rugs is because I specifically modified them to work with the bears.)

  .
  

.

.

• The HUD also gets an update this time out. It’s nothing major and you don’t *need* to rush off to get this one. The update is internal and means that it will no longer matter if you have empty lines in the dog_names Notecard. (It prevents the “No Dogs” error that occurs if you have extra white space in the Notecard.)

.

2. New Toys:

• Widget Beer – this is a toy that I make for each breed. When your dog fetches this toy for you, he throws it to you, you catch it and drink it! If you haven’t seen this before, it’s a lot of fun.
  .



.

• Portie Beer – the observant among you will have noticed that I never made a beer can toy for the Portuguese Water Dog back when the breed was released. So this one fills the gap in the range.
  .
  

.

3. Weathervanes:

• Weatherwanes are available for both Widget and the Polar Bear. If you have not seen these before, they’re in a holo-vendor on the deck at my Main Store.here is a Weathervane for each VKC breed and as you might expect change direction as the SL wind changes.

.

4. The Winter Bear goes on sale today for a very limited period:

• As I explained in a previous Newsletter, he was my item in the Snowflake Hunt and we were requested to make our hunt items exclusive to the hunt until it finished. Well, the hunt finishes today, I’ll put him on sale for the next four weeks in case anyone still wants one. After that I’ll retire him completely because it has always been my intention for the bears series to be Limited Editions.

.

Lost Products

Don’t forget that anything you buy at the Vavoom! Store can be reclaimed for free if you lose it. If you need to reclaim something, you do it at the Update Stations:

Did I say that it’s free?

Want to Unsubscribe from the news service?

I am planning to introduce a system that will allow you to unsubscribe from the notices yourself, but it is going to be a while before it is ready. In the meantime, if you no longer want to receive these notices, please send me a Notecard with your name and the word unsubscribe. (You can just put this as the name of the Notecard, if you like. No Need to write anything inside.)

If you request to unsubscribe from this service, please be SURE that this is what you want to do. It means that you will not hear when there are updates to the Vavoom! Accessories even if those updates are vital when the dogs are changed such that the accessories MUST be changed to continue to work with the dogs. (This is of course a rare occurrence, but it is not entirely unheard of.)

.

Thanks as always for shopping at Vavoom!
