Apparently Firestorm Beta has made it impossible to easily load one's photo from a Windows Desktop photo in JPG up onto one's Profile. If there is a way, please tell me in plain English with no abbv. and no AACRMS (letters that stand for a phrase). Get that picture, at least.
After three months of daily encounters with Second Life, I now see why so many regions are totally empty of avatars/people. The whole site is basically deserted except for semi-secret clubs and BDSM regions, and some places for other sex hookups. I tried every different hour, different days, same emptiness.
So, it appears that Linden Labs have been so hung up on tweeking their software or whatever they are talking about on their site that comes up after a Google search for "download SL Viewers." How can LL afford to run this thing for the few software nuts in and out of their offices? SL and LL missed the boat that would have allowed them to have been Facebook, Amazon.com, and eBay if they had the obvious larger vision that a humanist on staff could have told and predicted.
Too bad such a potential wonderful phenomena had to kill itself off by suicide.... now gradually but surely.
