OnLive Sold To Sony! 'SL Go' Goes Bye Bye!

I covered the birth of SL Go here on the Blog, and now the death of it! On the face of it it was a great idea, a really workable SL option on your tablet, or phone, and the 'OnLive' service took the brunt of the work meaning older laptops and computers could take advantage of this too. Running SL on much higher quality settings on a machine which could barely run a viewer above low graphics otherwise.

All that is about to come to an end on April 30th though. Because Sony have acquired 'OnLive' for its Playstation services, and SL is not in its plans at all. No new subscriptions will be sold. It is free though through to April 30th! So if you're curious you have time to take a look on your device.

I know several photographers relied on SLGo to up their graphics, and shadows etc, so i hope they can find another work around.

I'm posting a statement from the Phoenix Firestorm team which reports on this some more after the jump. It also high lights another issue which may be a pain for some Pornstars members using SL on an older machine or Operating system. "XP operating systems will no longer be supported on the Second Life viewer and not long after Firestorm as well."

Pornstars Tech : 'Portrait Sketch' App On Android

I can't take the credit for these erotic sketches unfortunately. They are created purely by technology. On 'Portrait Sketch' a free, neat, and very easy to use App from Google Play Store. I found it recently in the 'Trending' section of the site, usually a good indicator of something pretty useful, or fun.

I was able to quickly download my Flickr images on the Android Tablet, and test 'Portrait Sketch' right away. Using some pics of myself and Louise.

You can download 'Portrait Sketch' Right now, Right HERE!

There is lots of settings to experiment with, but even as a novice first time user, the simple interface makes nice results possible straight away. I feel they actually look like sketches far more than some filters on some expensive photo tools software I've used.

Have fun with it!
