I Can Sing a Rainbow

Winlight has returned, in the form of a FirstLook client. The lighting is amazing, and the water is fantastic!


I suggest that anyone reading this should run, not walk, to secondlife.com, and download this viewer to try it out. Hopefully, they'll work out the remaining rough edges (if any) quickly and get it incorporated into the main release.

There goes the neighborhood

A neighbor two parcels over just put up a big skybox which blocks my view to the west.


The roof is covered with a huge "YARD SALE" sign, and the other end is open, so I guess that's what's going in there. I hope he or she has the decency to change the outside texture to something more inspiring: a Monet, perhaps?

Apparently, I rate as a Dorky Nerd King. Well, no surprises there...

Will work for prims

I got a gig helping build a new sim, Beyond Eden. It's a lot of fun having 15,000 prims to play with, plus I get some RL income out of the deal as well. Now all I need is inspiration...

Sometimes I Just Can't Help Redecorating

I was getting tired of clouds drifting through my workshop, so I lashed everything down and moved the complex up to 300 meters. It was also time to tear down all of the buildings and rebuild with something different (always an ongoing project in my case). Taking inspiration* from SteamSkyCity, I jettisoned the noisy steampunk rocket engines underneath and put in a central tower with 30-meter-diameter counterrotating props to hold the complex in the air.

A Gentleman in Caledon

I've been fascinated by the Caledon sims and steampunk/Victorian lifestyle. But to explore the region further, I decided that one must dress like the natives. I found a nice suit at Phantasgorium (I believe that's the name), donned a bowler hat (a top hat seemed too dressy for everyday use), and readied myself for further explorations.

Gamba's Castle Update

My friend and business partner, Mare, is a part-time mermaid, so I thought it would be nice to have a pool, and move her lodgings from the separate skybox they were in down next to it. The pool and house are on the left side in the pictures.
