Catena di isole is now completed. It has been such a pleasure building this sim. Thank you everyone for visiting it has been nice chatting with you while I built this sim. Everyone is welcome here. Robin Ridley will be adding a new store to the Freebie mall so stay tuned for the ads. Please stop by anytime. continuum.outworldz.net:8002:Catena di isole

Another look I like. Ruth2 RC3 mesh body with my own hair, skin, and shape as in the earlier post. Clothes and shoes from the Kitely Market. Blouse is by Rune, leather pants are by Dadiellas, and my favorite boots came from Dollys, which has since closed due to constant fighting with the never buy in opensim crowd. She got tired of it and left opensim, closing all her stores.

I just wanted to party in opensim, hang out with friends, and make nice stuff that I could sell to pay for my land. I never wanted this fight but it came to my door anyway. If there are those who want give away a bunch of stuff stolen from SL then that's their decision, I'm not going to call them out over it - that's a bigger question for people far more important than I am in Opensim to grapple with. But I'm not going to let anyone dictate what I can and can't do with my own creations.

Thank God It's Friday, the beginning of the weekend.

My Ruth2 and Roth2 avatars. Luna on the left is wearing Ruth2 RC3 (I don't use RC4 because I don't like the alpha hud for that version). The dress is from the Kitely Market and made by Pacifica. Hair, skin, and shape are mine (no I don't sell these or give them away and haven't made any others since - not my thing). Apelles on the right is wearing the latest version of Roth2. Clothes and hair are from the Kitely Market. The glasses and shoes I made. Each one's complexity is about 55000 to 60000. Just so you know you can get a nice unique look with Ruth2 and Roth2

Ok... just looked through some of the recent front page posts. I've been here in Open Sim for about nine months now.

I have accounts in OSgrid and Kitely.

I'll have to admit a good deal of my wardrobe is possibly copybotted. I'd like to know if anyone is willing to send me a list of LM's showing truly original, OS based stuff (aside from Lunaria), I'd appreciate it. Most of my wardrobe is rigged to the Athena body. I also have a small number of Ruth2 takes. For my male alts (yes, I have a few, using the same names that I established for them in SL), I use Adonis and Roth2.

There was a discussion recently that influenced me to write this post. It's located below the post from Luna Lunaria, #92052. I totally understand creators desiring to be compensated for their creations. I have spent a fair amount of L$ to gather some of my clothes in SL. I wouldn't mind paying a few K$ or O$ for some creations on this side of the metaverse, as I think that's quite fair.

Thansk to anyone that can help me out, I appreciate it. I'd prefer that the links be included publicly (instead of PMing me), so other users can find it easily.

Hello everyone a new project is coming I am working on. A BDSM college, a place for beginners to learn and experience aspects of BDSM or for advance people to come and help others. there is also a track for pony play. its still under construction and if anyone is good with roads and trees please contact me.

So this post was left on one of my regions and is fairly representative of the mindset original opensim creators will grapple with if they want to sell their products here:

"It looks nice but I like the whole sharing is caring idea. So many places in OS that offer free stuff. Not here, too bad."

I don't blame this shopper at all for wanting to find quality items for free - who doesn't? I was grateful that they visited in the first place and cared enough to leave a comment. It's for that reason that from time to time I do exactly that - offer most of my stuff for free as I did this past OSFest.

No, the ones that make life for opensim creators difficult are those freebie mills continuously churning out stolen content from Second Life and calling it 'sharing', and who aggressively push the idea that merchants in opensim have no right to exist.

As I replied to this user: Sharing is truly caring only if it's the original creator giving it away free, or if they have explicitly given permission to others to do so. And that only works if they don't have to pay for their regions, which is not the case for me.

My region costs average $20 per month per region, and the money I make from sales covers that most of the time. There are months I take a loss with my opensim stores (my Second Life store has never posted a loss in 14 years). But because sales do cover most of my rent I can keep doing what I love: making original content for Opensim.

Paying for regions of course is my choice - I prefer to be on well-run grids that truly respect creators rights. I know that you can easily find quality items for your regions for free all over opensim, so no one is more grateful than me when you choose to purchase at my stores :-)

One of the reasons I love Wolf territories - nearly all regions are connected to each other, and there are tons of them. This is from my newest store region under construction, and this view is looking west toward one of the several large mountains you can find across the grid that are not mesh - they are actual terrain. I could literally fly from here all the way to the other side of the grid. The venue in the photo is the Victorian Club that will be ready for sale soon.

Anunciando um novo hud... "Wizardry". É um hud mágico com muito mais poderes do que todos os outros huds combinados. Foi criado por um grande feiticeiro no reino de FreeMagic. O Mago o deixou, onde jovens aprendizes dignos poderiam encontrá-lo e usá-lo para o bem, apenas esperando que o certo o descobrisse. O certo NÃO é priscilla kleenex. Quando você chegar ao FreeMagic em sua jornada para encontrar esse grande poder, você deve levar o seu tempo... Atravesse a longa ponte de corda, não voe nem tente. Se você tentar voar o dragão irá empurrá-lo para fora da terra, se você for empurrado 3 vezes você será banido da terra da Magia. Atravesse lentamente a longa ponte de corda da loja FreeMagic até o castelo do Mago, depois dê a volta e suba a longa ponte do castelo do Mago até a Faculdade de Scripting Magic. Dentro está um teste para aqueles que são dignos de receber o hud. Mas se você voou ou tentou voar, não poderá levar o Hud. Assim seja como está escrito! Você está avisado! Agora uma palavra para o jovem viajante sábio... A noite é sua amiga.

Ankündigung eines neuen Hud... "Wizardry". Es ist ein magisches Hud mit viel mehr Kräften als alle anderen Huds zusammen. Es wurde von einem großen Zauberer im Königreich FreeMagic erschaffen. Der Zauberer ließ es dort zurück, wo würdige junge Lehrlinge es finden und für immer nutzen könnten, und wartete nur darauf, dass der Richtige es entdeckte. Das Richtige ist NICHT Priscilla Kleenex. Wenn Sie auf Ihrer Suche nach dieser großen Kraft bei FreeMagic ankommen, müssen Sie sich Zeit nehmen ... Schlendern Sie über die lange Hängebrücke, fliegen Sie nicht und versuchen Sie es nicht. Wenn du versuchst zu fliegen, wird dich der Drache aus dem Land drängen, wenn du 3 Mal hinausgeworfen wirst, wirst du aus dem Land der Magie verbannt. Gehen Sie langsam über die lange Hängebrücke vom FreeMagic-Laden zum Schloss des Zauberers, gehen Sie dann zurück und gehen Sie die lange Brücke vom Schloss des Zauberers hinauf zum College of Scripting Magic. Darin befindet sich ein Test für diejenigen, die würdig sind, den Hud zu erhalten. Aber wenn Sie geflogen sind oder versucht haben zu fliegen, können Sie den Hud nicht nehmen. Also sei es wie geschrieben! Sie sind vorgewarnt! Nun noch ein Wort an den weisen jungen Reisenden.... Die Nacht ist dein Freund.

Don't miss this! DJ Keng brings it Fridays at 7 PM grid time. Tonight's set will be full of ballads & love songs so bring your squeeze or come solo, if you don't, you'll wish you did! You'll find him at Barefoot Dreamers Grid. Take the tp to Daddy O's from the welcome area TP board. Here's your ticket. login.barefoot-dreamers.com:8002:Barefoot Dreamers Welcome

This looks to be a spectacular event!! https://continuum.outworldz.net/JOpensim/index.php/forum/r...

Thank you Cat for supporting the arts!
