Second Life gets more expensive for Europeans
Just got the following messeage ….
first let me say that I am really pleased with what you have build on the islands.
My main drive for this project is to create a place in SL for others to enjoy, and it is a success
As you may know, I am a European citizen and thus Linden Labs is obliged to charge me a VAT fee.
This is, as far as I can see, in compliance with the European Law and LL has no option but to charge…
Like I told you, I am not in it for the profit…
The Estate is barely paying its own Landtier to LindenLabs….
At this moment I am not yet clear on how to continue, I will keep you informed on what my actions will be.
Sincerely yours,
… Second Life gets more expensive, probably

How can I make a Sculpt Texture?
from http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Sculpted_Prims:_FAQ
One way is to create a 3D model in an external 3D software package, and then export a Sculpt Map for uploading to Second Life.
Members of the SL community have written several tutorials for Blender, an open-source 3D modeling platform. Qarl Linden has written an exporter for the Maya modeling program (code available here, installation instructions below). Exporters for 3D Studio Max and ZBrush will be available soon. There is also import/export for Wings3D. See Wings 3D, too.
Linden Lab has plans to provide a sculpt editor within the Second Life viewer. Check the Sculpted Prims: 3D Software Guide wiki page for more the latest developments; there’s an ongoing discussion Sculpted Prims:Talk page.
A second way is to calculate the texture directly using a programming language and the mathematics of the shape. For examples, see Rokuro or nand Nerd’s | Sculpt Texture Generator.
Inline Skate Tour
ein Tag frei – habe heute morgen eine Inline Skate Tour um den Zugersee gemacht … gute Sache – zum Teil etwas schwierig mit dem Verkehr.
ein Luftschiff bauen …
… war immer schon ein Traum von mir.
