Webmasters Corner

Hello Everyone!!!

 

We here at Amaretto would like to thank each and every person in our community and outside the community at that for being an Amaretto supporter!!! As we are getting close to the end of 2011 we think about the new year that is coming up…

 

You might ask what does Amaretto have in store for 2012? Well as you all know I cannot go into lots of details but I will say this much..

 

Amaretto Horses have been famous since Sept 2010 and are still going strong but we are not done. Next year we will make many improvements and add many nice things to our Horses 🙂

 

Amaretto K9’s joined the Amaretto line in August 2011… The K9’s hit the grid and many of the community loves them but I will add next year many changes will be coming to the K9’s I cannot go into a lot of details but these changes do have to do with the hud and many more features being added next year 🙂

 

Coming Soon…

Amaretto Barnyard Birds!!! Amaretto Barnyard are in production as we speak. We are working hard to bring these out like nothing you have seen before!!! Amaretto Barnyard Birds will be coming out in 2012!!! No date given at this time 😛

 

What else? Well you will have to wait and see what Amaretto comes up with next who knows! We do know we aim to give the community what they would like to see, we take suggestions and comments and even go out and have fun with the community as well 🙂

 

Join us for yet another great year coming up to see just what happens in 2012 cause we are not near done just yet 🙂

Today I’d just like to to recap some going on around Amaretto over the past week.

You have all been seeing the notices about the Poll created by the one and only Richie Carami. Its a really important poll as been mentioned in our notices. Richie’s poll asks the question “would the community be ok with 1 more prim on the horses?” This prim would be used as an extra trait slot. So the horse would be 15 prims instead of 14.

I would like to address the prim concern that I’ve seen in the group…

1) I don’t have enough prims to afford extra prims on the horses.

I would like to point out that if you are a person that has to closely watch your prims… This would be the break down

If you have 15 horses you would have to reduce by 1 horse to stay within your prims..

30 horses reduce by 2
60 horses reduce by 4
120 horses reduce by 8

So you see its really not a major prim issue…

We really need the community to login to the Amaretto Social Network and cast their votes. We can’t assume the community feels a certain way based on a couple hundred votes… We need at least 500 votes and in a perfect world EVERYONE would vote…

You can log in to the social site or sign up here http://amarettobreedables.com

The poll is located on the main page on the left side of the screen under the heading “Recent Polls”

The other thing I would like to talk to you all about today is the Christmas Horses and K9s (LEs/SEs)

When we first let out these awesome little guys we told you that ….

If you breed two Christmas LEs or two Christmas SEs together you have a chance for a very special coat…

HOWEVER ! 😛 We tossed in a twist this week *hands everyone a shot of tequila*

If you breed a Christmas LE with a NON Christmas LE you have a chance at a very special eye. Same for the SEs … If you breed a Christmas SE with a NON SE you have chance for a special eye…

So… HERES where it gets tricky… What do you do ? Do you breed two Christmas LEs/SEs together for a chance at a special coat? or do you go the other route and go for a chance at a special eye? That’s up to you! *give everyone a lime for their tequila* CHEERS! Mazel Tov!

Thats it from me for this week… Don’t forget to vote!

Thank you all for joining me this week for my connection and as always this connection was brought to you by the Letter F and the Number 4

Hello breeders! Since Amaretto has opened its doors we have worked hard with the community to reach out to those in need and have been involved in many charity events. Well…. Amaretto is proud to be a part of the Extreme Collectors Auction for RFL on December 17th, 2011 at 5PM SLT! We have contributed 2 One of Kind Limited Edition Horses to the Auction line-up. This should turn out to be a wonderful auction. So please join us on Saturday the 17th at 5PM SLT and let’s support a wonderful cause!

Happy Amaretto Holidays!

Jaymee

 

 

 

 

 

 

Richie Has an Idea

Richie had an idea and we would like the community 's opinion.
Please check this out and vote ! :) 

Richie Carami Hello Amaretto Community!!!
We here at Amaretto have been doing alot of thinking and well....
We would love to know what the community thinks instead of just
jumping into things..So on that note I would love to ask,
You, the Amaretto Community if you are ok with 1 more prim
on the horses... Why you ask? This Prim will be used as a trait
slot I cannot give details out as to what kind of trait as most of
you all would like but that is what I can say it is a Trait slot
Please Vote yes if you are ok with the extra prim or no if you do
not wish for us to do so.
Check out this link And VOTE !!!

Webmasters Corner

Hello everybody its Tmzasz your Webmaster.

Today I would like to talk to you all about the registration/login process. As you may know both sections on the website have a separate registration / login system. Now I would like to cover both processes for you real quick.

 

Main website this is for everything but the ticket system.

 

First point your external browser (a browser other than the built in media browser inside second life) to

http://amarettobreedables.com (you need to use an external browser as the in world browsers do not work all the time)

 

Now at the top of the page click Sign up and it will take you to the account creation/registration page

Fill in your email address set the password you want twice (do not use the same password as your email or second life account) and in the profile address you have to put an alpha-numeric word in the box. You create this and it has to have at least 1 letter in it but can have letters and numbers, i.e. tmzasz1 this is for the url of your website profile page and it would look like this http://amarettobreedables.com/profile/tmzasz1 don’t put the http:// or anything else in just put what you want to be behind the last /.

Next change your time zone and language, complete the recaptcha and then read and agree to the terms of service of the site (which are located here: http://amarettobreedables.com/help/terms).

 

Press continue to go to the profile information page

 

Here you fill in what will appear on your profile page

For first name use your SL first name and for last name use your SL last name or resident if you don’t have one

Everything else on the page is optional and completely up to you if you want to fill it in.

Click save and wait for the confirmation email (should arrive within 5 minutes) and then confirm the registration and login that’s all there is to it 🙂

 

Now for the ticket system

 

The reason the website login does not work with the ticket system is because the systems use a separate user/password style and they can’t talk to each other.

 

Ok to register to the ticket system point your external browser (a browser other than the built in media browser inside second life) to http://support.amarettobreedables.com (you need to use an external browser as the in world browsers do not work all the time)

 

On this page in the center is a register button that looks like a red silhouette with a brown + sign on it click it to start the registration process.

 

Once you click the register button please fill in the account fields:

Full Name please use your second life name not your RL name

Email please put the email you wish to use to login to the ticket system and put a password (do not use the same password as your email or second life account) and finally fill in the recaptcha and click sign up. Once you do you will be able to login using the login box to the right of the screen about halfway down.

 

Once you login you can fill in the profile information if you choose to but it is not required.

 

After logging in at the top where it says > Home > View tickets > Submit a ticket > Knowledgebase > News > Troubleshooter click on home to go to the front page or Submit a Ticket to go straight to the ticket submit ion page.

 

I hope this helps everyone be able to login easier and clears up any confusion.

 

P.S. Ava has made 2 awesome videos that show the signup process for each part!

Hello Amaretto Community!!!

Starting December 5, 2011 @ 12:01 am the new show horse was able to be dropped from the breeding of 2 buckskins! Well… it has hit the grid! And it is a beauty! The only qualifications to getting one of these amazing horses is to breed 2 buckskins together. They can be any colors or traits! Just remember both the mother and father must be buckskins! The coat of the show horse will not pass however, the eye does have a chance to to pass!! I have attached a picture of the horse so you can marvel at it’s beauty!

Happy Buckskin Breeding!
