An Open Casting Call For Mesh-Prim Fusion- Silky Soulstar Reporting…





A girlfriend of mine once proclaimed, "I have seen the future and it is mesh!"  We all upgraded our viewers and raced to acquire as many alphas as we could. 


 Some of us … <shudder> … went so far as to trash all of our prims as fast as a Torley Linden tutorial.  But now we know, the future of SL Fashion is instead an eclectic mix of flexi, mesh AND prims.

How to Fix and Alter your Hats, Scarves and Clothing to Fit You- Tea Couturier Reporting.



Scarves and hats can be very hard to fit over hair in SL. If you have your own hair peeking out of the hat, it either looks small for your head too big when you try to modify it. That is IF you are able to modify them.

Here are a few of my tips on getting that right look  that fits.
In Second Life it is best if you are going to wear a hat to get one with a menu that has a resizable script in it. Most clothing and accessories have some type of menu which enables you to adjust them to fit you.  This is a good starting point.
 Some menus have restore back to shop size, this again is helpful  if you mess up you can just click this button and it will restore it to how you bought it. My tip is to wear the hat and see how it looks under your hair. Then touch the hat or right click and a menu should appear at the corner of your screen (on the right hand side).

LEA 19: The Portuguese Way – Glossom Resident Reporting…




Winter Wardhani, Chagal Campestre, Flor Campestre, Janjii Rugani and Wan Laryukov are not just random names. These are five people who, by fate or by chance, have met in Second Life and have teamed up by a common interest: Art! Their joint forces and ideals resulted in the birth of LEA 19 - The Portuguese Way.

LEA is an acronym for Linden Endowment for the Arts, a Linden Lab initiative that aims at promoting and embracing art in Second Life by providing the necessary infrastructures (land and prims) for artists to develop their skills. For more info: http://lea-sl.org/about

Shout Outs to some Talented DJ’s in Second Life- Piers Diesel Reporting...


In Second Life music plays a big part in the entertainment business. 

Finding a DJ that plays the kind of music you like to listen to is not as hard.  Most DJ’s in Second Life have groups where you can join and be kept informed of where and when they are playing.

To save you some time looking for a DJ I have comprised a small list I feel covers a wide genre of music.

Doing It Right the Classical Way: Magnus Brody DJs to the Tunes of Bach, Mozart, Beethoven and Beyond, at Highlands – Stareyes Galaxy Reporting


Hearing about a DJ doing classical repertoire might make you go “What? Come again?” 
Magnus Brody has a steady DJ gig at the Highlands sim doing just that – playing classical music. Stareyes Galaxy met with him one afternoon, asking the same question, and a few more besides.

I had seen Magnus do his classical gig a few times, once with a movie theme. While the audience at these gigs was not abundant, it was all the more enthusiastic.  I arranged an interview with him, to see what it was about, and met him at his residence, the Brody Castle, at the Highlands sim that also boasts the Loch Ness Inn, a famous Scottish club run by Lauraclaire Benelli.

Magnus Brody in real life (RL) was a part-time community radio broadcaster since 1990 in London, U. K. In 2001 he moved to Scotland, and later joined Second Life © (SL) when it was still a budding phenomenon.

Lag is a B*tch, and Then You Crash – Stareyes Galaxy Reporting


More often than not, in a social situation on Second Life© (SL), either you experience lag, or hear someone complain about it. Even in instant messages on SL, lag sometimes makes words get mangled and out of context, and sometimes what you say disappears completely.





What is lag and what causes it? How can you minimize lag? Stareyes Galaxy got on SL to find out.

Linden Lab (LL) maintains a web page for the “minimum requirements” to run Second Life, and looking at that page, both the hardware platform and the network connection have a profound effect on how you are able to utilize the capabilities of SL.

Celebrating Veteran’s Day in Second Life- Davvek Suun Ki Reporting…



As we observe Veteran’s Day, we owe a huge “Thank You” to the many veterans and their families; who have given us the ability to enjoy the freedom we now have.  Veterans Day is an official United States holiday which honors people who have served in armed service.


 Veterans have become our "heroes" in this Age of Awakening.  Never has this been more profound then against the current War on Terrorism. These brave individuals function as a collective to ensure the freedom we now possess stays with us.  We owe them everything we enjoy today and have over these many years.
Within our virtual community, many groups have set aside special events to celebrate their commitments for our country.  Here are some locations drawing crowds this year:

Loss and Grief in Second Life: In Memoriam of all the John and Jane Does' who have Lost their Souls – Glossom Resident Reporting…


Life is made of gains, starting with the birth itself, and losses like death. 
There is no escape for the many events that afflict our souls, not even in Second Life. We create bonds of affection with other residents: friendships, relationships in love and in business, family. Yet, no one conceives that those same people who have crossed our path to give us a piece of them may not be there one day.
