Happy Holidays!

Hi everyone! I know you haven't seen much coming from this blog lately. My assistant and I have been on somewhat of a hiatus for the holidays. I have lots of things brewing for the New Year that I'm very excited about and hope you will be too.

I just want to wish all of you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Be safe this season,
Zelly <3

Looking like a Pop Star ;)


This week we are going to review all the older poses Zelly has created, we want to refresh your mind and show you just incase you may have forgotten.

Today we have the Queen of Pop music, she is amazing, and no matter how old she is, she always manages to impress us with her elasticity and agility. This is what Zelly has captured in the poses she has created, the best of Madonna here at Striking Poses.



This collection comes with 12 poses and all of them are just awesome, was so hard for me to choose one, all of them are just perfect, really well made.

You know that I like to be creative and show you the other side of the artist behind the poses, to take the celebrity inside you and show it to the world, that is why I always take some pictures and when I saw the pose number 10 and I turned around and looked at my bed ... I couldn't help but do this shot for you.




Don't forget to come to our store and become a member of our group, you could be a weekly winner, and also get lots of free poses, Zelly is very generours person and is always thinnking on all the costumers like you ;)

Hello there!

This week I am going show you some of the older poses that Striking Poses had made a long time ago. I'm going to take this opportunity to refresh your minds for those who may have forgot, or for those who are new to Striking Poses and have not seen these poses before.

I will start with a girl we all know, one of the most famous girl of our time, she isn't perfect (far from it) her history is very dark and sad, but her music and videoes I like, and you might even hear me singing along to them! (only somtimes.. *blush*).

Yes thats right, its the Britney Spears pose collection! This fatpack comes with 10 different poses, and like always you can buy them in singles.



I have choosen the following pose, its number 2 in the pose collection, don't forget you can always play with the poses, do some nice pictures or just add them to you AO.!



Oh, I almost forgot, I have already the preview pictures poses for next week, and this time everybody is gonna be happy ... I have choosen just 2 poses ... and they don't come in the same fatpack ... that is all what I'm going to say ;)




Cheerio!!!

Supermodel Pose @ Striking Poses!!!


Hi hi!!

Today I have something very cool for you. Girls that love photography will love this collection as it is modelled on Christy Turlington!!!

If you are not familiar with the name, I will tell you that she is a supermodel best known for representing Calvin Klein fragrances since 1987 and others like Maybellyn and Armani campaigns but she doesnt like to be labelled as a supermodel.

So for you girls out there want to have a nice photo shot to start your career as photographer model or to just have some nice shots for hangign around your home, I cantell you that this new collection is perfect for that purpose. The poses have a naturalmovement that will make your photo shot ready for a magazine cover ;) or maybe you could participate in a picture contest!! ... I'm sure you will find the perfect use for this Christy Turlington Collection.



And how Zelly said .." it is a collection with some unique vogueish poses. These will definitely make for interesting pictures."

About me, I love shots, and I couldn't help but do one meanwhile I was walking around my neighborhood looking the christmas decoration for this year ;)



Have a nice week!!!

New Poses Collection!!!


When I think about myself in 10 years time, I would like to think that I look just as sexy and beautiful as Ashley Judd, if no,t I can always make my avi look like her using the new poses from Striking Poses, Zelly took the best poses of Ashley to be use in this collection.

Ashley Judd is an american actress and how we say in Chile "she is good like the wine, the older gets,the better taste" don't if that makes as much sense to you as it does to me. :p



This collection comes with 10 poses that you can buy as a fatpack or they are sold seperatly so you can pick your favorite.

Don't forget that the Peace on Earth Hunting has started and there is a lovely unique pose made by Zelly for this huge event.

As usual a shot for you by me, this time Spad is posing using one of the Michel Jacksonposes from that Collections.

Flickr Makes Me Cry *sigh*

If you are a content creator and post photos of your products with a link to your store on your Flickr account, you really should read this.

Ok, here is the dealio. Flickr deactivated my account WITHOUT WARNING. After weeks of writing them, I finally get a reply today saying that they purposely deactivated it because I was in violation of TOS.

"Don’t use Flickr for commercial purposes. Flickr is for personal use only. If we find you selling products, services, or yourself through your photostream, we will terminate your account." Ok, I wasn't selling anything...I was displaying my products which I've seen hundreds of content creators do, but ok.

So now I have created a new account "ZellyMornington" and a new group called Striking Poses in a Virtual World. I'm so sorry, but if you were a member of my old group, you will need to join this new one as the old one is dead.

Here is the link to the new group:

http://www.flickr.com/groups/striking-poses/

EDIT: I asked Flickr if I could appeal this decision and was told that once an account is deactivated it is completely wiped from their database. So be careful if you use Flickr to post your creations...once your account is gone, it's gone. :(
