A question I often get asked is, "Why are some OARS exclusive for Dreamgridders only, I thought this was a free and opensource platform with sharing?" Yes it is however, the reason some OARs are exclusive to DreamGrid users is that they contain purchased items with licenses that must be respected. Or the Creators of these OARS only offered them to Dreamgridders it is their license to share with us exclusively. By limiting the distribution of these OARs to the DreamGrid platform, we ensure that we are honoring those licensing agreements.

"If a copyright is not enforced then it is worthless. I have paid tens of thousands for exclusive rights" Fred Beckhusen

ANNOUNCING our newest department at the mall - "Heating & Cooling" and we'll have some cool stuff and hot deals for you!!! These two fireplaces are two of my original builds, but only two. There will be others and yes we'll have a few "imported" fireplaces and other items, but I will do my best to build many more items than are imported. What I have been doing is taking the houses I've built that have "heating" units and unlinking the units from the homes then placing them independently in the Heating & Cooling department. Stop in and have a look around though this department is only just beginning so it only has a few items in it..but more is coming, I promise! Blessings and much love, Lavia

Hey everyone! Just a little information update on the GRPG Welcome Center - This location has been specifically developed for folks who are brand new to Open Sim and the Virtual Life and do not have a clue about how to get around and do things in the virtual world that we love, called Open Sim. We have tutorials on how to move and use your camera even information on how to slow down your flying so you don't smash your head on ceilings and trees. We have three large tutorial buildings and the first is how to move and view, the other two are made available after the new comers finish the first tutorial on how to move and view. Those two tutorial buildings are how to build your avatar one building for the ladies and one building for the gentlemen. There will be forth coming tutorials on how to drive a vehicle, ride a raptor (just for fun thank you Ares Halostar) and how to ride a horse. I will be creating and adding "How To" video tutorials on various subjects including how to update your region page on the OSW Directory, how to do your settings in Firestorm (sorry not doing one for Singularity because I don't have it) and all of the videos will be available at the touch of a button in our GRPG Information Center in the GRPG Welcome Center. You will also find a large Teleport Board there that will take you to those regions that we have open for public visitation. I hope to see you there an I hope these videos and tutorials will be helpful to everyone. Blessings and much love, Lavia

I have not send out any notes at the moment.
Been busy in both RL and at VENDETTAGRID.
We are building at the GRID and making new great areas for you. The shop areas will take time to build. some are already up and we are still in process with new stuff at the areas. We are really thankful for all the great people that help us out in opensim. Thank you to the GRID owners and friends in here that support our work. We will be online as soon as we can...but it will take time.
Until we open we will keep you updated.

UPDATE:
I have a sponsor who will cover the cost of the stream and will do the broadcast of the soundscape from her computer. However, I'm researching the possibility that the broadcasting can be done from my Google Drive account. Anyone know anything about that? The file will be about 13,130 kb.

Also, I managed to get the uploaded song to fade out at the end, as it oughta, I still need to do more work on the song, but this is how it now sounds, fade out and all. https://www.bandlab.com/post/51f23c9d-8b5b-ef11-991a-6045b...

Thanks to all who have offered help, advice, ideas, encouragement and such. I'll be asking the sponsor of the stream if she wants to be acknowledged, and how.

OLD NEWS
I need help streaming music for a project by Cherry Manga. My 10 minute long soundscape will run on repeat for a month, 24/7, starting on September 29th.

Here are two options I’ve considered for how to stream
1. Ideally, I would store the music on the streaming service server and have the song set up to repeat.
2. Alternatively, I would use Mixx to make a live broadcasting connection to a streaming service.

Options for getting a streaming service.
3. Ideally, I would use a stream somebody has set-up already.
4. Or I rent the service, with the $ help from anyone who wants to contribute to the exhibit.

Let me know if you can help.
