In-World Links |
|

This section serves to provide some useful links in Second Life. Our
designers have an extensive amount of experience navigating to the
wealth of places that exist in this community. Throughout our
explorations, we have found a number of places that can save you a
significant amount of time in your projects. Of course, you would like
to create your own environment with your own special touches. Yet,
there is no need to reinvent the wheel when a lot of items already
exists. Put your energy into the delivery of your content, rather
than recreating something that is readily available.
The links that will be provided here are highly recommended by us for a
variety of different solutions. It is important to note, that
except for our own store, those listed below have no affiliation with
our company. In fact, many do not know they are even listed here.
We just find these places have great solutions at a reasonable price.
Please NOTE: The links to the places listed below are in SLURL
format. When you click on a link, you will be brought to a web
page that shows you the Second Life link to teleport to. You can
either be logged into Second Life, or the link will then bring you to
the Second Life login screen.
