Discover a realm where imagination soars beyond the horizon. Skyrealm invites you to explore a breathtaking world suspended in the clouds, where art, fantasy, and innovation merge.

Located at the SkyRealm Observatory, this surreal exhibit has quietly existed for some time—yet remains newly discovered by many.

Inspired by Salvador Dalí’s The Persistence of Memory, the installation explores time as something fluid, observed, and strangely aware. Clocks are held rather than worn, memory floats rather than fades, and the viewer becomes part of the equation.

Set near the Dance Tower, the piece rewards those who pause long enough to notice it. It isn’t loud. It doesn’t announce itself. It waits.

If you haven’t seen it yet, now is a good time.
Time, after all, is already watching.

🐾 Let your fur fly! We gonna have a feral fest!

DJ Xenon Darrow and her razor‑smiled shark Mack the Knife are back at the Fleas Club this Saturday @ noon grid time!

Step into the wild with a creature‑coded set crafted just for furry friends — heartbeats, howls, neon, and pure feral energy.

Come run with the pack.
Come dance with the pride.
Come feel the pulse of the Den.

And you can ride the shark...if you dare!

Work is progressing. When I can't connect and work on the LSL scripts, I handle the web development. Ultimately, everything communicates from Opensimulator to PHP/MySQL, which is then stored in the database. From the databases, the data is then transferred from PHP/MySQL to the website, which is currently under development. Today I'm working on player profiles. We're intentionally keeping the Hypergrid names in some entries because the game will be fully Hypergrid compatible. Example profile: https://bloodmoonpack.com/pages/player.php?id=52

💃 Petite, aber oho! Die neuen Outfits sind da – wild, frech, glamourös und sowas von bereit, den virtuellen Laufsteg zu stürmen! Ob Glitzer, Satin, Cut-Outs oder „Was zur Holo-Hölle ist das denn?“ – der Petite Avatar bekommt jetzt mehr Style-Optionen als ein Chamäleon auf Speed.

👠 Und das Beste? Das Bild zeigt nur einen kleinen Vorgeschmack. Hinter den Kulissen lauern noch mehr Looks, die sich gerade warmtanzen, um deinen Kleiderschrank zu crashen. Also schnall dich an, zieh die High Heels fest und sag deinem alten Outfit: „Danke für nichts.“

✨ BK bringt’s – und Petite rockt’s. Bereit für den nächsten Style-Schock?

We're making progress! Today we finished the spike, which can drain 10, 25, or even 40 liters of vital fluid. I'll add the video of the spike once I've finished the Soul Reaper, which is the next step. I apologize for the delay, but between my day job, family life, and other commitments besides OpenSimulator, I haven't been able to find much time to dedicate to it. You can watch the video of what I've already accomplished, keeping in mind that the spike wasn't finished at the time of filming: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQJIaxfVj_Q

Thank you for your patience.

New Year, New Skills: Ignite Your Inner Creator in OpenSim This 2026

As the calendar flips to 2026, there's something electric in the air—a fresh start, a blank canvas waiting for your bold strokes. In the vast, ever-evolving grids of OpenSim, where imagination knows no bounds, what better time to challenge yourself? This year, let's make a pact: commit to learning one new skill that elevates your virtual world-building game. Whether you're a seasoned grid-hopper or a newbie dipping your toes into hypergrid adventures, picking up a fresh ability isn't just about adding tools to your inventory—it's about unlocking doors to entirely new realms of creativity.


Think back to those early days of OpenSim, when resources were scarce and ingenuity was king. Creators didn't wait for the perfect mesh import or the latest PBR shader; they dove in with what they had, turning simple primitives and scavenged freebies into masterpieces. It's that spirit of resourcefulness that still fuels our community today. If you've ever marveled at how a discarded texture or a forgotten sculptie can transform into something extraordinary, you're already on the path. But why stop at admiration?

2026 is your invitation to become the alchemist. One skill that's ripe for the picking—and perfectly suited to OpenSim's DIY ethos—is the art of modding. It's not about starting from scratch; it's about seeing potential in the overlooked. Remember that full-perm lamp gathering dust in your inventory? With a bit of tweaking, its base could become the foundation of a futuristic throne.
Or take a humble plant asset: stretch it, tint it green-blue, and suddenly you've got alien foliage for your sci-fi outpost. As I explored in a recent piece on turning "found parts" into new worlds, modding is like virtual recycling at its finest—it breathes life into old items and sharpens your eye for innovation.But modding is just one gateway.

Maybe scripting calls to you: imagine crafting interactive objects that respond to avatars, like a door that whispers secrets or a fountain that dances to music.

Or dive into texturing—mastering UV mapping and bump maps to make your builds pop with realism. For the bold, there's even world management: learning to tweak server settings or set up your own region could turn you from visitor to visionary host.

The beauty of OpenSim is its openness; skills here aren't locked behind paywalls. Free tutorials abound on forums, YouTube channels dedicated to virtual worlds, and even in-world classes hosted by fellow creators.Here's how to get started without overwhelm:Set a micro-goal: Don't aim to master everything at once. Pick one skill and dedicate 15 minutes a day. For modding, start by deconstructing a freebie—unlink its parts, experiment with rotations, and reassemble into something wild.

Build a "skill scrapbox": Just like a modder's inventory of shapes, curate resources. Bookmark guides, join OpenSim Discord groups, or follow creators on OpenSimWorld for inspiration.
Share your progress: Post your experiments on OpenSimWorld. Feedback from the community isn't just helpful—it's motivating. Who knows? Your first modded creation might spark someone else's journey.
Embrace the fails: Every twisted prim or glitchy script is a lesson. In OpenSim, "mistakes" often lead to the most unique discoveries.

Learning a new skill in 2026 isn't about perfection; it's about growth. In a world where we can fly, teleport, and shape reality with a click, why not level up your own abilities? You'll not only enrich your grids but also connect deeper with our vibrant community—sharing knowledge, collaborating on builds, and inspiring the next wave of creators. So, what's your new skill going to be? Grab that inventory, fire up your viewer, and let's make this year legendary. The hypergrid awaits your spark!

John wartet auf's Christkind
Es ist mal wieder so weit. am 24.12. ab 14 Uhr, warte iJohmit Euch gemeinsam aufs Christkind!
Dieses mal leider eine Stunde kürzer, aber genauso feierlich.
"John wartet auf's Christkind" auf "OpenRadio" und natürlich in Dorena's World.
Wie immer findet ihr ihn auf Santas Winterwunderland, der großartigen Weihnachtsregion von Rubeus Helgerud.

John Waits for Santa Claus
It's that time of year again! On December 24th, starting at 2 PM, John will be waiting for Santa Claus with you!
This time, unfortunately, it's an hour shorter, but just as festive.
"John Waits for Santa Claus" on "OpenRadio" and, of course, in Dorena's World.
As always, you can find him in Santa's Winter Wonderland, Rubeus Helgerud's magnificent Christmas region.

Naturally, in "Winterbergen, at the mulled wine hut."

I humbly make this post with much sadness and embarrassment. I received today 200 of the 210 donated to the gofundme for Luna Lunaria's star. I was gonna cover out of pocket the extra $11 as the total came to 211. Since i know Luna's rl son will be forwarding everything to Luna's rl wife, I thought it best we opt for a 2nd copy (unframed) for Xenony Lunaria/Mr Magic Fox to keep for himself as a keepsake. The only other addons i opted for was hand written calligraphy (13.50 per document x2) Then star registry added on $40 further for shipping and handling and tax, raising the total to $254.61. We are frankly a poverty level income household with only 1 income for two adults currently. I'd happily cover the $55 if it wasn't basically jeopardizing our bills and budget situation. WE ARE SO CLOSE! I realize this means we won't be able to make a donation to St. Jude, but lets say 5 community members could each donate 10usd, we would seal the deal! I am posting a screenshot of the attempted checkout in order to be fully transparent. Xenony did specify Luna would had liked the middle star of Orion's Sword the best, but with 3,000,000 stars already named, i think the Orion constellation would be good enough. (it did not let me specify anyways)

Seems the sim is borking from time to time. I'm trying to figure out the underlaying issues. Restarting the sim helps, so will try to do it often.

@FerdFrederix suggests "If you were to become a bug, you could do so by wearing an avatar that would allow you to experience the world from a bug's perspective. Imagine visiting a garden where everything is to scale, and you could truly be the bug. You would be able to explore this miniature world, see the intricacies of the plants and flowers, and feel the wind blowing through the grass virtually. You could crawl through tunnels and crevices, and even fly to new heights. Being a bug could give you a whole new appreciation for the world around you and the creatures that inhabit it." three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Goliath Gardens We did just that, please visit anytime and become the Bug! thank you @Ferd!
