Since I released the Cinema Complex last year, I've had a few of you ask if you could get just the ballroom section I created for it. That new ballroom is now nearly complete with brand new pbr textures (as shown), as well as older fallback textures so that everyone will see something. I'll post in a couple of days when it's complete.

**A Tribute to Verna Avril: DJ, Creator, and Friend**
Today, we pause to honor and celebrate the extraordinary Verna Avril, a beloved DJ at Event Plaza, an accomplished builder, and a cherished friend to so many. Verna has recently been diagnosed with late-stage cancer, and while the news has left us heartbroken, her unwavering spirit continues to shine brightly in the time she has left.

For those who have had the privilege of knowing Verna, you know her as a force of nature. Her music has been the heartbeat of Event Plaza, where she transforms gatherings into magical experiences, spinning tracks that bring people together and create memories that last a lifetime. As a DJ, Verna doesn’t just play music—she shares her soul through every beat and rhythm.

Beyond her music, Verna is a visionary builder and creator. She owns and curates numerous regions, each a testament to her incredible talent and love for creating beautiful spaces. Her worlds are filled with life, imagination, and wonder—a reflection of her boundless creativity and dedication.

Verna’s style and charisma are as unforgettable as her music. Always impeccably dressed in her signature short black dresses, she carries herself with grace and confidence that inspire those around her. But it’s her warmth, kindness, and generosity that truly make her unforgettable.

In this challenging time, Verna has shown us the depth of her strength. Even as she faces this diagnosis, she continues to remind us of the importance of living fully, loving deeply, and creating beauty wherever we can.

As her community, let us rally around her with our love and support. Share your stories, your memories, and your gratitude for the joy she’s brought into your life. Let’s celebrate Verna Avril—not just for what she’s accomplished, but for who she is: a beacon of light, creativity, and love.

We don’t know how much time we have left with her, but we do know this—every moment with Verna is a gift. Let’s cherish these moments together and honor her legacy, now and always.

Stay strong, Verna. You are loved more than words can express. 💖

Aussie and I will be hosting an event to celebrate our friend Verna Avril. In the meantime, please post messages for her here as she cannot be in Opensim but can read this website. Thank you in advance for posting for her! I will make all the messages and stories into an online book for Verna.

'...And ye shall be free from slavery. And as a sign that ye be really free, ye shall be naked in your rites. And ye shall dance, sing, feast, make music and love all in my praise.
For mine is the ecstasy of the spirit, and mine also is joy upon Earth, for my law is love unto all beings...'

Dal profondo del cuore auguriamo a tutti voi un Natale pieno di pace e speranza, vi ringraziamo per tutti i bei momenti condivisi in questo 2024 che sta per finire e ci auguriamo che il prossimo 2025 sia per tutti noi una grande opportunità per divenire la migliore versione di noi stessi.
°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸,ø¤°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°
De todo corazón les deseamos a todos una Navidad llena de paz y esperanza, gracias por todos los bellos momentos compartidos en este 2024, deseamos para todos que el próximo 2025 sea una gran oportunidad de convertirnos en la mejor versión de nosotros mismos

Die Botschaft von Weihnachten:
Es gibt keine größere Kraft als die Liebe.
Sie überwindet den Hass
wie das Licht die Finsternis.

The message of Christmas:
There is no greater power than love,
she overcomes hatred,
like light the darkness.

AnatoBotanica is the name of the current sculpture collection I am doing IRL under MVN name, my initials.


Inspired by the connection (and the lack of connection) of human being in its environment, the nature.
Made of organic shapes, hybrid creatures comes to life with the use of moss and a lot of gold paint on PLA which is a bioplastic, sometimes clay and paper are added for the finest parts.

To introduce this new art form I am experiencing in opensim, I chose to show a glitched version of the real space I work from, my home.

My home is my shelter, but also my workshop.
The stones of the walls, the plants and animals living in the garden, are themselves an inspiration. Observing birds, bees and butterfly, listening to their songs, watching these creatures feeding from flowers, those simple « little things of life » are deeply touching my soul and question my own place in this world.

Opensimworld.com is a great way to promote all the wonderful creations we can find in different grids and I think this is the purpose of this website. Promoting creativity, giving people the ability to explore and see what others create. This is why Im sponsoring this website with advertisements and announcements. Lately I observe this place is filled with comments of personal kind , ( some would call it drama ). I am sure the majority here visiting this website for the same reason as I do are not happy with the continuously posted remarks of personal kind ( and disrespectful) . I wish to ask all who use this wonderful website to consider , where it was built for. If this website will become a gathering place for people who wish to display their frustrations, it will chase away others who are willing to invest in this medium. Please take this in consideration before you post ( and please use English if you can, this is an international community)

Hello!

We are making a change for regions that are closed to group access only. While it is allowed to list your region here (if it is hypergrid-accessible), your region must be assigned to the category "Group Access/Private". You can go to your region's page to change that category.

The regions that are group-only will be marked with a [G] in the beacon and in the website listings

Bald ist es soweit - noch einmal schlafen, dann startet - wie jedes Jahr - der Adventskalender auf Eternal Ice.
Alle Geschenke sind von ihrem jeweiligen Tag bis zur Entfernung des Adventskalenders erhältlich- es gibt also keinen Zeitdruck, jeden Tag nach dem Kalender sehen zu "müssen", um kein Geschenk zu verpassen ...
* * *
Soon it will be time - sleep once more, then - like every year - the advent calendar on Eternal Ice will start.
All gifts are available from their respective day until the Advent calendar is removed- so there is no need to check the calendar every day to not miss a gift....

Winter is here, Yay! Well, yay for some :).
I have a new release today, fairly whimsical; Polar Bear Ceiling Lights. They were made as ceiling lights and they are resizable. I did a large version separately as the automatic light script had to be adjusted for the life size bears.
There are automatic and manual light scripts in the regular size lights, you can delete the auto script in the large ones and put in the manual if you like.
I have a couple of more ideas for the bears that will be out soon.
Have a beary nice day!

There are people in every community who give everything and ask for nothing in return. In the OpenSimulator metaverse, Fred Beckhusen — known to thousands by his avatar name Ferd Frederix — is that person. An engineer, programmer, 3D artist, world-builder, and open source advocate, Fred has spent nearly two decades quietly making OpenSim easier, richer, and more welcoming for everyone who enters it. His tools run on grids around the world. His scripts are embedded in regions he will never visit. His generosity has shaped the virtual lives of people he has never met.

She created avatars, clothing, buildings, animations, textures and entire regions.
She gave every last one of them away. No strings. No license fees. No DMCA.
Universities used her work. Hospitals used her work. You used her work.
Anthropic's Claude AI searched the entire public record.

In twenty years, nobody threw her a party.
This demands long overdue gratitude.

We shall honor her with an ENTIRE SEASON since nobody else cares to.

For many years, OSGrid has been held together by a community of people who show remarkable dedication. They build, create, donate, volunteer, and continue returning even after setbacks that would have driven most communities away. That level of loyalty is rare, and it speaks to the heart of what OSGrid has always represented: a place built by its users, for its users.

But with every major outage, that same loyal community pays the highest price. People lose assets, regions, inventories, and countless hours of work. They rebuild from scratch, not because they have to, but because they believe in the grid and the people behind it. Each time, they hope the stability will improve. Each time, they trust that the next chapter will be better than the last.

And yet, here we are again.

No one denies that OSGrid operates on a scale larger than most OpenSim environments. No one dismisses the complexity or the volunteer effort behind the scenes. But dedication is a two‑way street. When a community repeatedly invests their time, creativity, and emotional energy into a grid, it becomes increasingly difficult to ask them to simply “be patient” after losing everything again.

The truth is simple:
People are not frustrated because they don’t care — they are frustrated because they care deeply.

They want OSGrid to succeed.
They want stability worthy of the loyalty they’ve shown.
They want to feel that their work, their creations, and their memories are safe.

This isn’t about blame.
It’s about acknowledging the emotional and practical impact on the very people who keep OSGrid alive. Respecting the community means recognizing that repeated asset loss is more than a technical inconvenience — it’s a breaking point for many.

The community has proven their commitment time and time again.
It’s fair to hope that the grid’s infrastructure will one day show the same level of commitment back.

This is for anyone who hasn't seen this beautiful video by Kimm Starr of the last set of Luna Lunaria's Memorial. Thank you, Kimm, for making such a lovely tribute to our dear friend. Have your Kleenex handy.
Also, we are raising funds to name a star for Luna, so when we look up at the night sky, perhaps we will get a glimpse of Luna dancing in the shimmer between the stars. Thank you, everyone, for donating and coming together as a community. I love you all!

Meet our newest recruit at Desolate Expanse — a small bot with a big heart… and absolutely zero sense of responsibility.
He “decorated” his corner with pink paint, insists it was art, and now refuses to give the brush back.

He may be clumsy, slightly radioactive, and emotionally unstable (the good kind), but he’s the perfect companion if you like chaos with a pastel aesthetic.

Come visit him, give him a pat, or take him home before he repaints the entire region.
Adopt a bot. Save your walls. Maybe.
