New Release: SPIRIT U Animations!

A new line has come to SPIRIT...SPIRIT U Animations! And I've started it off with a bang.

In the cheer room (which is becoming quite crowded, so look for a second floor or something here soon!), you'll find 28 poses and animations, all created with the utmost attention to authentic detail. Want to look like a real cheerleader? Here's how!

15 Basic Standing Poses let you perform cheers and chants any way you want. Sold individually or as a set with a convenient HUD (more about that shortly), each pose holds until you tell it to stop, so they're also perfect for photo shoots. Modify and copy enabled so you can put them into poseballs.

8 Stunting Poses add to your cheer move repertoire. Sold individually or as a set with a HUD, you won't need a stunting group or partner to hit these poses! Each pose holds until you end it, so they're also good for photo shoots. They're modify and copy enabled so you can put them into poseballs too.

Also available (but not pictured in this post) are three sitting poses (including one splits pose), a standing pom shaking animation, and a toe touch jump. These are all sold individually, but look for them to eventually become parts of new sets with their own custom HUDs.

And now for the details on the SPIRIT U Animations HUDs!

See that small gold and black rectangle in the upper right corner of the above screen shot? That's one of the SPIRIT U Animations HUDs!

I wanted a really fast and convenient way for you to be able to hit your cheer poses and animations for performances and photo shoots. And I think the new SPIRIT U Animations HUDs do the trick! They're small so they don't take up much room on your screen (for anyone unfamiliar with HUDs, they attach to your screen so only you can see them and you don't need build rights to wear them while travelling around SL). Unlike most HUDs with those pop up blue dialog menus that require you to know the name of the pose you want to use, SPIRIT U Animations HUDs use pictures on the buttons. Simply click on the picture of the pose or animation you want to use, and it'll animate you! It also doesn't ask for permission to animate you each time, so no additional delays there. Each pose or animation continues until you click on the SPIRIT U logo to make it stop. And these HUD's are NOT animation overriders...they only animate you when you tell them to. Otherwise, the script isn't running, so there's less lag than using an AO!

Best of all, every SPIRIT U Animations HUD is FREE with the purchase of a complete SPIRIT U Animations set! You'll get a new version with each set, customized to fit that set's poses and animations.

And I have even MORE news coming up in a new post, so stay tuned!
