I just went in for a small amount of time to take a couple of pics. But will be doing more. I use to have land in Second Life or SL. It's a lot more fun to be able to make the place your own by landscaping and adding things to bring it to life.
These pics are of my avatar in my Linden Home, it's supplied when you have a membership, which you don't need to be in SL. Just gives me a base to start and end from and to be able to rez things.
My avi at my art table:
And relaxing by the fire:
Mind you, the fire isn't the best on this fireplace, but I got it cheap and it takes up little space. It works for me.
For me? SL is an escape from the realities that I won't be able to do the things I use to. Like go dancing, or horseback riding, or dirt biking. I can get dressed up or down, I can go surfing again, even if it's only on a screen and in my mind.
Now before some of you start to rag on SL or the people that are in there. Understand that it's anything you want it to be. It's what the community make it. All content is made by the people in there. The places you visit, the clothing you wear, the things you can buy, all player content. That being said, we all know that online worlds are full of all sorts, just like SW, so if you get some pervs here, yeah, you'll find them in SL. But you find some great people there as well.
I know this is long, but still. The place is not for losers, though I'm sure there are some that would be called that there, but it's a place to meet just like here, but interact in a 3D world, one with wonderful and odd places. You don't have to go anywhere or do anything you don't want to.
Anyway, just thought I'd share. Thanks again for taking the time to look.

Looks interesting not heard of it. Thank you for sharing馃
@SW-User Most welcome. It's just like this, but 3D. You can travel around to other peoples SIMs or lands and visit. They have ballrooms with dance animations and so much more. If you can imagine it? It's probably there. Mind you, if you want something more than the basic avatar look, you will put some money into this place. My avi, pictured, I put together from buying body shapes, skins, hair, eyes, clothing and even the AO so he looks like he's moving realistically. But, it's fairly cheap in cost, sometimes only a couple of dollars. You don't have to pay though, only if you want.
Also, can be a bit confusing, so if you do try it and would like a guide to get you started, let me know and I can give you my avi's name or get yours and I can help. But only if you want.

Sounds very complicated I鈥檓 not good with tech @MrPerditus1
@SW-User Oh no, not complicated at all. Just create your avatar from the start, once in you can travel all around. If you want to make your avi look different, it's really easy and having someone inside to help you is even better. I was totally lost when I started. Now I help new people all the time. Honestly, if it was hard, I wouldn't be in it. lol
