  1. Maybe it's not fitting but it reminds me a bit of surrealism "Objects trouvés". I will check out the sims, thanks a lot!
  2. I agree, I have read many books debating that. I was interested in what residents consider meaningful as art sims in Sl.
  3. Ha, point was also to get to know which sims you consider art. Otherwise, like when someone asks you if you know what time it is, you can always simply reply "yes".
  4. I imply nothing but he fact i used to know many more art sims in the past, that’s why i’m asking here to widen my knowledge. if your definition of art is dramatically different from mine, that would be a very good thing indeed. Diversity is great.
  5. Photography is clearly an art of its own. You shouldn’t mind the occasional person making such comments.
  6. Hello everyone, I see contemporary art, architecture, design, and nft's flourishing on other metaverse platforms, and feel Second Life is maybe not as new but still has major potential and overall quality for those fields. But I am not sure I have a complete vision of that, so I ask you, are there still existing sims or cities in Second Life that you consider art? Thank you in a advance!
  7. Maybe I was not clear, if so, please excuse me. If the city will be saved, it will be for everyone to access as usual. If not, it will be shrunk to one sim only.
  8. When I say artists need to create, I don't mean they're better or worse than anyone, but, I think we all had this discussion years ago.
  9. Artists create not because it is entertaining, but because they have to.
  10. There's plenty of membership only sims, clubs and beaches. Djehan poured money on 5 sims for 15 years, I know she did out of love for people who could immerse in the city, and now cannot anymore.
  11. Hello all, Hangars Liquides is sadly going. Djehan Kidd has always funded the city with marketplace sales, but the crisis makes it difficult for her to support it at the moment. So, take your time to visit until it's there. Landmark: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Hangars Liquides/134/133/2226 After September, 22, it will shrink down to the central sim (it's five sims now) and be accessible only to Patreon subscribers. At Landmark you may want to donate, or you may want to subscribe to the Patreon she set up to avoid the closing: https://www.patreon.com/hangarsliquides In 2019 the city encountered similar problems and reached its financial goal to keep it alive. At the time and I set up a post in this forum which got a lot of suggestions and questions. In order to avoid answering them all again I link it here, you can consider it as a FAQ: So, thank you if you choose to donate and hopefully save the 5 sims, and thank you for reading this post if you choose not to.

  12. I don't get the dark screen but I do get significantly darker pictures than in the preview box. I've tried to fix with external lighting, but still not ideal. MacBook Air with M1, 8 giga 512 Ssd Hd, Osx Monterey 12,2,1 https://gyazo.com/572a15501ccfea668377034dd5e56777
  13. I'll make my very last post here, because you seem very authoritarian in your judgements. Is that an order? So let me ask you, are you a moderator here, or are you in charge of any superior power in the forum? If so, please be so kind to state it. Or are you a forum member like anybody else? If the latter is true, then your opinions are as good as anybody else, and same goes when you say HL people fabricated things. I've read endless assumptions and fabrications not responding to reality, and all those seem okay to you. City supporters have come to me horrified by some of the users in the thread and even more committed to support. One last thing, I've read about discounts under the table, this has never been the case with HL, which has always paid all that was due.
  14. And here comes again the smearing machine! You didn't poke me, you asked, with your usual class and kindness (Who the hell are you?) And I simply answered. False again! I explained and explained and explained, and you kept going with assumptions. The only thing I didn't disclose (the technical problem) is one that involves LL and I am not going to give anyone the chance to smear a company that has been collaborative in a timely fashion. Once again, are you someone entitled to know? No.
  15. Wow, Fiona's magic is back. "Djehan remained suspiciously silent" Bam! And all the people who are not attentive enough will think "Hey! This Djehan has something to hide!" What a trick! You're so clever and subtle. Let me answer you about that one: Djehan, as you may have guessed from the thread title, is busy saving the sim. She's talking to donors, to the press, she's even taking the time to kindly answer all the people visiting the sim and approaching her. Now Fiona, are you a donor? No. Are you one of the people who take the time to tp to Hangars and talk to her? No. Are you a Linden in charge of ruling over Hangars fate? No. Why should she come talk to you? Are you the tribunal ruling over Hangars? No. The only suspicion left, at this point, is why you put all this effort and energy in making continuous and malicious unfounded assumptions on Djehan Kidd and Hangars?
  16. Last two posts go back to issues that have been already covered and explained, so please go back to the previous posts. Overall yearly costs are 6.000 and not 6.700. A dear family member just got out of surgery room and is luckily fine so you will forgive me if I take a pause from this thread. Best to all.
  17. Donations which are meant to specific no profit goals (in this case keeping the artwork alive by paying servers for a year) are always given back should such target not be reached. That is a very common no profit practice aimed at transparency and clarity towards the donors. Edit: in this case the minimum goal is 3.000, which are due by August, 1. The other half can be paid in smaller installments throughout the rest of the year. Should that not be reached, donations will be given back to donors.
