Selkie Gestures

Selkie Gestures are the new range at Selkie Gorean Animations. There are currently gestures available for Free Men and Slaves. I've tried to keep it to a really simple concept, and although familiarity with gestures is good, you dont need to know everything about them to make them work. I've based the entire range on a "Hot Key" function. If you play online games you are likely to use the F Keys alot more than you do in secondlife. This is because they are easier and faster than typing text and clicking huds. I've taken this idea and the Selkie Gesture Range was born. Although the gestures can be chat triggered, the main trigger is the F Keys. Gorean Men have the option of buying Ctrl + F Key versions so the gesture can be active alongside weapon controls which also use F Keys. But on the whole, the basic concept is, press an F Key and your animation and text is played. If the gesture needs a releaser, this is included in the purchase and pressing Shift with the F Key which triggered the gesture in the first place will release you. It is sooo easy.

For Gorean Men there is the Tal Gestures. You would not believe how long this has been rattling around in my inventory. I've finally done something about it. There are quite a few versions available. As mentionned above, there is a choice of trigger keys, F Key or Ctrl + F Key. I asked around and found out alot of weapons use F Keys and I want you to be able to have both active at the same time. The Tal Greeting is mod/copy. If you are a confident gesture user this is for you. The rest of the range includes Tal expressions like Tal Stranger and Tal my Brother. These include the Tal animation, the text and facial expressions. The preview stands in the main store will play the gesture for you. If you do have questions about it feel free to contact me in world or here.

For Slaves there are the Pleasure Slave and Tower Slave positions available for smaller and standard size avatars. I really went to town on these and they are a godsend. If you are anything like me, your Master marches off at a warrior pace completely unsympathetic to your laggy logistics and I'm trying frantically to release and run after him. Now I press one key and not only do I stand up, but it is emoted for me too. It is totally independant of huds and collars. When you buy a slave gesture you will get the position gesture and the release gesture. You will get a silent and emoting verions. Thats four gestures. I have written a default emote describing the position correctly and describing you returning to your feet but please change this to suit your own style. Instructions included ! It really is very easy but if you do want help or have any questions please contact me.
