AFTER THE FALL - Dark Urban Role Play - Lacy Muircastle Reporting ....

We all like to be part of a greater whole and one way to do that in SL is to be part of a role play community.

AFTER THE FALL is a new role play sim with a sci-fi, post-apocalyptic theme. ATF is an elaborate grungy city, with aliens, combat, and adult-themed role play.  It's a highly interactive sim that gives avatars the opportunity for group role play or solo quests (with prizes).

AFTER THE FALL is an adult-rated sim, so you must be 18 years or older to play.

The creator of the sim, Tigerlily Hyun told the SLE “We are very excited to open up this new role play sim. We're just getting started, so you will see new features, new content, and new quests over time. Come and grab a copy of the Welcome Pack at the landing point for more information and read the sim rules.  Join the AFTER THE FALL - Survivors group to keep up to date on important information, new role play scenarios, and events.”

Baby Monkey™ was established in January 2008. Baby Monkey™ is a well-known shoe store in SL which offers every fashion savvy resident shoes in hundreds of styles and thousands of colours with the highest of quality and best value in SL.













I have shopped at Baby Monkey™ and continue to shop at this store for shoes.

Discovering Wild Texas Rose- Justice Brentley Reporting...




I am very excited that I found this place in Second Life called the Wild Texas Rose.  Entering into the sim for the first time, I  felt like time had turned back. The old western theme at the Wild Texas Rose has many things to offer, like horseback riding on the trails or right on into town.

While you are in the town, check out the saloon where you can ride the mechanical bull and horse while listening to all the greatest tunes from  DJ's.
 Wild Texas Rose has rooms for rent as if you were back in that era.  You and your partner can even ride in the carriage around town. 

You better watch the sky's though!  You never know when a tornado will blow through. With the storm animations all in motion, it brings some realistic weather effects to Second Life.


The Boobies of Second Life! Highlight on a free second life group:The Big Boobie Babes Group (Part1) ©-Orchids Zenovka Reporting...



Though it is easier to cry in a Mercedes than out on the street, the best things in life are still free…
- Orchids










What is one of the beauties in life that is free yet comforting at any time? Yes, its boobies! Breasts are beautiful; be they small or big. The sacred feminine is often described by the cleavage which while anti-feministic in itself, it is also true that females, animal and human; have breasts. And in today’s world, sexuality and beauty has become broader concept. Some androgynous male actors and models look ethereal. 

Nonetheless, old prejudices from real life carry onto second life as well.  Implant boobies may feel anti-feministic and meaningless. But then anything we do in RL or SL… from the watch you wear to your favorite food is pointless. Might as well as eat bananas and survive. Thus mermaid and neko communities have been able to give a welcome haven to many, pushing past boundaries, without fear of ridicule.
Boobies’ boobies and more:

SL Newser: Commentary: Should Bad News Not be Told?- Bixyl Shuftan Reporting..


This summer, we got contacted by a reader concerning some articles we were reading. It wasn't about accuracy, but rather the content. We had published some articles about residents being less than pleasant to others, and she expressed worry that we were making the Grid less attractive to those who hadn't yet tried Second Life, and would be steered away from giving it a try.

Real-life 3D printing of Second Life © Designs – Stareyes Galaxy Reporting…


Three-dimensional (3D) printing of small objects at home has become a popular hobby for wannabe designers, and this shows also in the new technology “hype” statistics.



Anything from decorative and hard-to-find spare parts to the constituent parts of the printer itself can be manufactured using mesh designs and an export file for the printer in question. Second Life © (SL) is also a viable platform for viewing the designs before printing them in 3D, and now also designs made for SL can be printed in glorious 3D for real-life (RL) use. Stareyes Galaxy discussed the technology and real-life examples of SL jewelry with Joja Dhara and Maxi Gossamer.

Squinternet Larnia - rest in peace lovely lady



Dedicated to the talented designer Squinternet Larnia of Donna Flora - who has sadly lost her battle against cancer.







Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.

I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush

Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.

I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave bereft
I am not there. I have not left.

 - Mary Elizabeth Frye -


In late 2011, Squinternet Larnia of Donna Flora, thought she was suffering from repetitive stress injury, but in that December she learned that the aching in her bones was not from working on the computer but from breast cancer that had metastasized into her bones.  She surprised everyone by rallying at the time. She pursued alternative therapies that gave her energy and strength. They did not cure the cancer, but for a time they managed it. She outlasted her doctor’s prognosis by more than a year
Squinternet you will be missed by all your friends and the SL fashion industry as a whole.

The Guitar Museum of Second Life ©- Stareyes Galaxy Reporting...



Many sims in Second Life © (SL) are created as a homage to some phenomenon or another, in all walks of life. 

Many times, these sites are a great way to educate oneself on the history and present state of the art of the topic at hand. Stareyes Galaxy went to see the Guitar Museum and to interview its creators, Bono Fouroux, Angel La Femme, and Veronica Weksler. Bono is a well-known guitarist himself, and Veronica sings live on SL. They sometimes have duo performances, combining their streams from The Netherlands and Ohio.

Technology: Oculus Rift – a New Virtual Reality Viewing Accessory- Stareyes Galaxy Reporting…


Oculus Rift is a new virtual reality (VR) viewing accessory that is designed to give VR gamers a new level of user experience. 

The device development was initially financed by Kickstarter, and demonstrator units are now available for developers, together with a software development kit (SDK). Linden Lab is looking into porting this VR experience to Second Life © (SL) users, but there is still a way to go before we can expect the first avatars to enter SL using an Oculus Rift viewer. Stareyes Galaxy had the opportunity to test the demonstrator.

The technology behind the Oculus Rift is quite straightforward. It uses a 6” liquid-crystal display (LCD) and enlarging optics for both eyes. A personal computer (PC) is used to send the viewable content to the display. The user then sees a stereoscopic view of the VR content, as both eyes get their own view, separated by the perspective. The optics focus on the display surface itself, but the perspective seems to be set in infinity. The rendering for the display is done by means of the software, for each eye separately. The viewer uses the same content that is rendered on the PC screen.

What to Wear by the Avatars of Second Life- Tea Couturier Reporting..

In Second Life we can easily see what avatars like to wear but to actually know what they are actually wearing in SL you have to ask them.

So that is what I did. I hopped around different sims across the grid looking at what people wore and asking them what stores they love to shop at.

The Original PopRocks Music Club :Poppin’ at PopRocks- Ccoursey Reporting…





The Original PopRocks Music Club is a small club I happened to come up on one night looking for something to do.  I was drawn in by the flashy colors and stayed for the friendly, relaxed atmosphere

 BonappetitLaTease should be a proud owner of her small establishment.  There’s something to catch the eye on every wall.  From the neon colors to the pictures of old movies and stars, it is a fun club.

 Not only because of the people, it is the atmosphere itself. Poprocks is the perfect size for a club. It is small enough to keep conversation flowing through the whole room and large enough that you are not bumping into the other patrons.

Meet the Talented Criss Fredriksson- Tea Couturier Reporting...



In Second Life we all have our favourite performer who we go to listen to when we are logged in and want to relax listening to some good music.  Criss Fredriksson is one of those performers. With a growing fan base Criss is gaining strength and momentum and becoming a household name within the SL music industry. 

You know he's good if he stopped Lanai in her tracks.

I wanted to know how it all started for Criss in SL, so sat down with him between rehearsals to find out.
