I am honored to share the news that Fred Beckhusen’s “Phaze” collection will be coming to the Weathered Woods Second Life Marketplace store.

Phaze was the Second Life region of Fred Beckhusen and Debbie Edwards, and the creations associated with Phaze represent their creativity, work, and history in Second Life. Full credit for these creations and their legacy belongs to Fred Beckhusen and Debbie Edwards.

Weathered Woods is honored to provide a new home where selected pieces from this remarkable archive can once again be made available to the Second Life community.

This will be a carefully curated collection. Fred will decide which creations from his archives he wishes to release, and those pieces will be added to Weathered Woods over time. Each Marketplace listing will preserve the appropriate creator attribution and acknowledge the history behind the work.

For me, having Fred’s work represented alongside my own creations at Weathered Woods is an extraordinary honor. I look forward to helping preserve this little piece of Second Life history and making Fred and Debbie’s creations available for others to discover and enjoy again.

Please Note! Platform Availability Notice


The Phaze Archive will be curated separately for Second Life and OpenSim. Items, versions, permissions, and availability may differ between platforms.

Each platform will feature content specifically selected and approved for release there. An item available on one platform should not be assumed to be available on the other.

All original creator credits and applicable licensing will be preserved.

To Address any confusion:

A Note About the Phaze Archive

I would like to clarify the purpose of this project.

The Phaze Collection represents archived Second Life creations by Fred Beckhusen and Debbie Edwards. Our goal is preservation—to restore these precious assets, keep them from being lost to time, and allow selected creations to be enjoyed again in the environment for which they were originally created.

These are not simply files that can automatically be moved to OpenSim. Some contain Second Life-specific scripts and functionality that would need to be rewritten or adapted for OpenSim before they could work properly.

We are also not using Second Life Marketplace primarily as a money-making venture. It is the Second Life distribution portal available to us, making it a practical way to preserve and provide access to selected pieces from the archive.

OpenSim is separate. Fred has generously provided creations to the OpenSim community through Outworldz for well over a decade, and new resources continue to be added there. We do not distribute through Kitely Market. We distribute here:
https://outworldz.com/

Many of our OpenSim friends also maintain homes and avatars in Second Life. Those are the people this announcement was intended to reach. We are part of communities that overlap; enjoying one virtual world does not require us to stop enjoying another.

Most importantly, this project is about preservation, respect for the original creators, and ensuring that an important collection of virtual-world creativity survives to be enjoyed again. ❤️

UPDATE:
from deep down the ubode swamp, a major breakthrough to be reported:
finally broke through the glass ceiling in opensim- perfect smooth roaming animals, at a minimum cost! usually, for smooth moving, coders grab KFM---which throws some 20+ eps in my face! The breakthrough:
I've developed a system that gives the perfect smooth, but, at 2 eps!
Its been tested now with 2 animals, a swimmer and a walker....so far so good.
I hope somewhere in the next week to add the first perfectissimosies to the shop!:)

New arrivals at the Euphoria store.

✨ Legacy – weil du nicht folgst, sondern führst

Wenn Stil Funken schlägt und Selbstbewusstsein zur Bühne wird, beginnt das Spiel der Verführung. „Legacy“ ist kein Outfit – es ist ein Statement. Es ist der Moment, in dem du den Asphalt zum Laufsteg machst und die Sonne dein persönliches Spotlight wird.

BK‑Mode vereint Rebellion und Eleganz, Glanz und Haltung. Jede Naht erzählt von Mut, jede Silhouette von Freiheit. Hier trifft urbaner Puls auf goldene Raffinesse – und du bist der Mittelpunkt.

Kein Kompromiss, kein Zufall, kein „vielleicht morgen“.
Nur BK‑Mode: wo Stil Geschichte schreibt und du das nächste Kapitel bist.

Petite - zierlich, aber nicht unscheinbar!

Es gibt diese Momente, in denen alles um einen herum rennt, hupt, blinkt und sich wichtig nimmt.

Und dann stehst du da, mitten drin, und denkst dir:
„Ja gut… aber ich seh trotzdem besser aus.“

Petite ist genau für diese Augenblicke gemacht. Für Frauen, die nicht fragen, ob sie auffallen dürfen — sondern sich einfach hinstellen und die Stadt kurz irritieren.

I asked for support. The community gave me humble pie!
The lights are on and the Linda Kellie tribute is underway.
I cannot thank everyone enough for the gift table submissions.
RealWorld activities task me presently so the roll-out is gradual.
I am documenting the decade long journey which led me here.
Coming soon on Kindle with a CC-BY-NC-ND version on my blog.

Thank you, ALL OF YOU.

Good morning! I created a little shoppe at the landing point in Moana. It has all the things I created for this region. Some tropical/tiki/polynesian carved woodwork furniture and home deco (and even a coffeemaker in the same style that hands out wooden mugs with steamy hot coffee), water/ocean themed items, sea animals, seashells... come have a look.

Many are going to Monentes Jewelry for this choker, I apologize it should have been posted here at the Sim LivBlue that is where I placed the choker. Thank you everyone for stopping by. Thank you, J

Hi lovely Starchild Shoppers!
I see many of you IMing me with some issues, but with incomplete information to identify where it is (i.e. which skin name), and HG IMing doesn't always work!
Kindly IM me on Discord, or hear, so I can keep track!
All the love,

That is how many snapshot oars friends grid made this last month. Some people have told me it is stupid...it is redundant...it is ignorant!

I prefer to say it is SAFE!

In addition, we dont back up assets monthly or weekly, we back them up daily!

Why do we do this? So our residents can enjoy their virtual life!


Contact @zuzubahro or @safinemahoe2 for details on our free sim islands with 10,000 prim for active residents.

#the best damn little grid!

Diese Outfits tun so, als wären sie völlig entspannt — dabei wissen sie ganz genau, dass sie auffallen.

Sie geben sich lässig, fast schon unschuldig, aber mit diesem Unterton von:
„Ich hab mir nicht viel Mühe gegeben… und trotzdem schaust du hin.“
Schlicht, aber mit einer kleinen Prise „Ich weiß, was ich tue“.

Ein Stil, der nicht protzt, sondern leise grinst — weil er genau weiß, dass er funktioniert.

BK‑Mode: Für alle, die Eleganz tragen, aber Humor nicht an der Garderobe abgeben.

We, Crazy & Carmen, would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank Dan Banner and his dedicated team of volunteers for their selfless commitment and tireless efforts in maintaining and enhancing the performance of Osgrid. We truly appreciate you!

Wir, Crazy & Carmen, möchten diese Gelegenheit nutzen, Dan Banner und seinem engagierten Team von Freiwilligen herzlich für ihren selbstlosen Einsatz und ihre unermüdliche Arbeit bei der Instandhaltung und Leistungssteigerung von Osgrid zu danken. Wir wissen euch wirklich sehr zu schätzen!

Hi everyone!
I've only recently started working on the shop I'm opening at Funny Rides. My plan is to post the things I'm adding here on the OpenSimulator page. I know everything's everywhere, so I think finding something new will be tricky, but hey, at least the journey will be worthwhile. Today I've been adding some outfits for girls, perfect for when you're feeling naughty. Anyway, here's a picture, and I hope to see you in Barcelona!
Hola a todos!
Hace relativamente poco tiempo que estoy trabajando en la tienda que estoy abriendo en funny rides, mi intencion es ir poniendo aqui en la pagina de opensimulator las cosas que voy a ir añadiendo, sé que todo está en todas partes asi que creo que encontrar algo nuevo será complicado, pero bueno, al menos el paseo ira mereciendo la pena, hoy he estado añadiendo algunos outfits para chica pensados para usar cuando estais en modo travieso, en fin, os dejo foto y os espero en Barcelona

Update on Grid Portal Site:

We've now got a splash page: at https://portal.sub-version.space/splash.php
A login page for the portal at https://portal.sub-version.space/login.php
Public profiles at: https://portal.sub-version.space/publicprofile.php

Currently I am the only user with a profile set to public - so if you search for me - you will see what the public profiles look like.

We're still away off from release - we need to do:

* Registrations
* Admin Interface
* Region Management
* Odds and Ends

Background images are randomly selected from /splashimages/
Other images/logos are taken from /theme/themename/

They are easy to replace with your own grid images

Mit dem Motto * All you need are scripts * ist Sixtus Majus nach OpenSim zurückgekehrt und hat einen eigenen Shop mit seinen Werken auf Needful Things bezogen.

Der Shop * Sixtus's * füllt sich nach und nach mit nützlichen und auch lustigen geskripteten Objekten, wie zum Beispiel dem hilfreichen Color-Picker oder voll funktionsfähigem Roomba Saugroboter.
Schaut gerne mal rein 🙂

***************************************************

With the motto * All you need are scripts  * in mind, Sixtus Majus has returned to OpenSim and set up his own shop featuring his creations on Needful Things.

Why don’t you just stop by? 🙂

Welcome to Coralys, the suspended archipelago where a turquoise sea conceals ancient secrets. Between singing waterfalls, copper-roofed towers, and veiled paths, every step reveals a mystery—forgotten sanctuaries, impossible lighthouses, hanging gardens. Will you dare answer the call of Coralys?

Bienvenue sur Coralys, l’archipel suspendu où une mer turquoise cache des secrets anciens. Entre cascades chantantes, tours au toit de cuivre et sentiers voilés, chaque pas révèle un mystère — sanctuaires oubliés, phares impossibles, jardins suspendus. Oserez‑vous répondre à l’appel de Coralys ?

I wrote this song for my sister so this one means a lot to me. It isn't just pixels and avatars in virtual...there are real humans with real feelings behind the screen. Friendships are real and they last. How many years have many of us known each other? I feel blessed for all the friendships I have made over the years, and having someone who feels like family on this journey, I am thankful beyond words. 10 years and counting... Thank you for watching! SUBSCRIBE :)

One question that comes up often: "Where do I find good music streams for my region?"

After trying different methods over the years, one of the easiest tools I have found is StreamURL.Link. Simply search for a radio station name and it helps locate stream URLs that can be added to parcel music settings in OpenSim.

Need jazz for a coastal cafe? Ambient music for a fantasy forest? Rock for a bowling alley? Classical music for a castle build? Finding stream URLs can make a huge difference in creating atmosphere.

I have found this especially useful when building themed regions and experiences.

Tool:
https://streamurl.link/

How to use:
• Search for a station
• Copy the stream URL
• Open your region or parcel music settings
• Paste the stream URL
• Test and enjoy

Small details create immersion. Music can completely change how a region feels.

A few years ago I asked about creating in opensim and using software to enhance or to better render what you creat, related to photos. However at the time ai was not able to do a good job as it had a hard time rendering photos not just from opensim or sl but in games in general. But now things have much improved, and thanks to Jims posting earlier I read it has gotten way better. So here is an example.

Testing MeshyAI for Jewelry Parts: A First Workflow Experiment

I was recently asked whether I had ever tried using MeshyAI to create jewelry parts.

At the time, I had not.

Rather than simply answering the question, I decided to test it and document the process. This example represents my first experiment using MeshyAI-generated geometry as a starting point for jewelry development.



https://virtual-hg.com/index.php/2026/05/21/meshyai-jewelr...

My new website went live today. You will find art, my music, my videos, and some info about me and my projects. Have a look and let me know what you think. On the Music page, scroll to the bottom and you will find buttons you can click that will take you to my playlists so you can listen. You can also watch the videos on the website. Thanks for looking! I forgot to mention that it is my voice singing most of the songs.

I stepped away from creating jewelry for a while—sometimes you need that pause. The break gave me space to reflect, reset, and let new ideas come through naturally. I’m feeling inspired again and looking forward to bringing a few fresh pieces to life soon. Thank you for the many IM asking me to create that special piece. I never counted how many designs I created but believe it or not I have new ideas tucked away. Thank you for the continued support 💕

IF YOU USE DISCORD PLEASE READ! SCAM ALERT!

So a friend of mine contacted me via discord and sent me the screen shot i have posted. claimed they accidently reported my account and said I had to contact this person to get it fixed.

WARNING!

It turned out to be a scam! Luckily I got it before any of my money or whatever they wanted was taken.

DO NOT FALL FOR ANYTHING LIKE THIS!

my friends account is most likely hacked and I think they caught on that i knew. When they stopped talking to me, that was my first clue.

NEW at Bodies & Clothing: Lots and lots of new female hairstyles, from short to mid length and from long to OMG I stepped on it long. Come see for yourself at Bodies & Clothing, take the "girl hair" (yes, I know, but I was limited in the number of characters I could use so "female hair" didn't fit) option from the telepad menu and stock up on new gorgeous hair.

Hi :)

Over the years I collected many plants, flowers, decoration and statues, lots of statues.
None of these are created by me, however they are collected by me lol.
I tried to create a beautiful setup, visit the shops at the square and follow the path to make sure
you won't miss anything. hop://hg.ansjelagrid.com:28002/Imaginaerum/934/175/22
Enjoy

🏘️ LITTLE CITY – GROSSER STYLE! 🏘️

Wer sagt, dass man in Little City nicht die Blicke auf sich ziehen kann? Nur weil die Stadt kleiner ist, muss es dein Auftritt nicht sein!
