I'd like to suggest seating with poses designed for holding our meeroos. I know I'm just a bunch of pixels in SL, but sometimes I'd like to sit down and "relax" while holding my meeroos, and all the seating I have over-rides the meeroo snuggle pose so that I end up hanging it by its tail, or it disappears into my clothes, or whatever. (I bought the fallen-log at Roo, but it doesn't have meeroo snuggling poses.) In fact, I have to turn off my AO each time I hold a roo because otherwise, the next time I pick up the roo, it ends up hanging upside down, and I have to rebuild it. (Especially inconvenient when your race depends on wearing an AO, e.g., merfolk, tinies, etc.)
The ability to buy meeroo petting poses separately would be especially helpful for people who use roleplay meters that require resting. (You can buy kits for Azora and Spellfire, for example, to create your own resting furniture, but you have to supply the poses yourself.)
I would also like to suggest that most decorative products be made with no more than 512x512 resolution textures whenever feasible to reduce lag (for example, why do honey-bowls need a 1024 texture; the berry bowls have 512x512 and look just fine; also a mat of 1024-resolution grass seems like overkill to me.)
Finally, I love the style of the meeroo garden products (plants, crystals, etc.), but considering how many prims are needed just to breed the roos themselves, could you please try to lower the prim counts? For example, I bought the Yunivis flowers (not cheap, either) because they have lower-res textures that my laptop can handle, and they looked really nice, but each one is 10 prims, so I had to take them all down and replace them with 1-prim plants bought elsewhere in order to have enough prims for my roos. Even sculpted crystals can be made with one prim, but the ones from Roo, while really nice, are four prims each, and those can add up too. (Sorry, I just can't afford to buy more land with all these hungry little mee-mouths to feed ... while saving up to meepet them!)
Thank you!
