Second Life Diary - 1st Entry


I've landed into the Second Life world.
I selected a simple avatar that looked a little like me and decided to begin my journey into the unknown.
I tried to use Second Life once before when I was about 13, the technology then was fairly new and it is nothing like it was back then, either that or I was just too young to understand.
The picture above was a snapshot I took to show the beauty of the water. The 3D modeling has made the rippled in the water look so realisitc, I wouldn't be suprised if this was infact a texture rather than 3D modeling.
I'm still getting my head around it, it seems quite difficult to create an avatar that actually looks like you, and if you're not prepared to spend real money making your avatar look nice, you're pretty much stuck with looking how you do.
