First of all, please understand that this is NOT a free land giveaway. It is a limited sale, during which LL is waiving the one-time setup fee on new land. You still have to pay all other fees and you will have the ongoing cost of tier to pay. Read the Terms & Conditions of sale carefully. I have highlighted the portion that answers your question specifically: To be eligible, you must have a valid method of payment on file at the time you place your order. You will be responsible for paying the first month maintenance fee, plus any applicable VAT on the Land you take delivery of, at the time we deliver the Land. Normal monthly maintenance billing cycles apply thereafter. Land orders will be delivered to your account within 24 hours of placing your order, unless additional information is required. We must receive your Island order case submission between October 21 12:01 a.m. (Pacific) and October 23 11:59 p.m. (Pacific). Orders received outside of this time frame will not be processed. See the full information about this program at http://secondlife.com/land/sale/ --||-

Muting/blocking only affects what you receive. You can't receive their chat or see their pristine avatar, for example, but they can still receive yours and can see you just fine. They don't even know that you have muted them, unless you say so. Anyone can always find you, whether you have muted them or not. You can run, but you can't hide.

Lots of things. >>> http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/doku.php?id=fs_bake_fail What works for one person won't necessarily work for the next person, and it may not be the same thing that works for you tomorrow. Start with the simple things at the top of the list and work down until you find what works for you today.

Or if you put full transparent textures on them. My sim crossings have invisible bridges.

As an addition to my earlier post .... If you use the Firestorm viewer, you'll find that it has a "Delete This Name" button right under the username box on the login page.

Bonjour, damamino! Permettez-moi de deux morceaux de conseils: (1) Ce n'est pas un bon endroit pour solliciter des volontaires. C'est une zone de résident à résident pour poser des questions sur Second Life. Très peu de personnes que vous souhaitez interviewer verrez jamais votre note ici, et nous ne pouvons pas répondre parce que vous n'êtes pas poser une question. (2) Il est imprudent d'afficher votre adresse e-mail dans un endroit comme celui-ci. Il invitera les spammeurs et autres de voler votre adresse et l'utiliser à des fins nuisibles. Il serait mieux de retirer votre adresse dès que possible.

A broken link? To what? If you mean that the HUD doesn't seem to be communicating with whatever it is supposed to be controlling (I can guess what a **bleep** is, but I can't be sure), there could be several reasons: (1) You are in a no-scripts parcel. (2) The script in either the HUD or the **bleep** has stalled and needs to be reset. (3) You aren't wearing the **bleep**, or aren't wearing it properly. (4) The HUD script is damaged. Most of those possible causes and a few other less plausible ones are easy to handle. Go to another sim and try it. Restart the scripts or at least detach and reattach the objects. Read the creator's instructions carefully. Contact the creator.

As Angel says, it's like buying anything else in SL. Go to Marketplace, type in "baby", hit Search, and pay your L$.

Read the very large, boxed note on the web page that I gave you earlier: NOTE: Starting with Viewer version 2.6.0, you will need to go to the Me->Preferences->Advanced menu and enable "Show Advanced Menu" before the above will work.

That is extremely weird, especially because our standard SL avatars only have one arm. The way the avatar body was designed by LL, it uses the same arm for both left and right. That drives designers nuts, because it means that they can't make a tattoo that only works on the left arm or a dress that only has one sleeve. Now that mesh has arrived, it is finally possible to create specialty avatars that really do have two arms, but there aren't many of those available yet. Unless you bought one of them recently, I can only guess that there's something seriously wrong with your viewer. Try installing a third party viewer or doing a clean re-install (http://blog.nalates.net/2011/02/22/second-life-clean-install/) of the viewer you have been using.

What viewer are you using? That grid access has been a feature of every viewer for years.

Somehow? They wouldn't be there if you hadn't put them there yourself. So ..... what was the question again? Try reading http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Blocking/ta-p/700121

Yes, we all know. :smileytongue: You will too. Read >>> http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Editing-your-appearance/ta-p/700709 and http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Avatar-attachments/ta-p/700031

Not really. Invitation only is the best solution. People can keep adding the group over and over other wise. You could make it expensive, I suppose..... L$100 to join (refunded to most people, but you don't advertize that. :smileytongue: )

You probably have a corrupted viewer. The best solution is to do a clean re-install. That means totally removing all traces of your current installation and then downloading and installing a fresh copy. If you install a new viewer on top of a damaged one, you may inherit some of the borked files that were giving you trouble before. Here's how to do a clean re-installation >>> http://blog.nalates.net/2011/02/22/second-life-clean-install/

Are you using the Phoenix or Firestorm viewer? If so, you may have derendered that person by mistake. To rerender it you need to remove it from the blacklist. Access the Asset Blacklist from the Phoenix menu at the top of your screen. Click on the item you want to rerender, note avatars show as objects. Click the Remove button. Change your group tag, or teleport out and back. The object, or avatar will render in a few seconds.

This is a bug in the server code. See https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-7169? . Though this issue itself has just been fixed (As of Sept 14), Stone Linden has asked here for comments from anybody who has folders or objects permanantly stuck outside of inventory to report their cases on VWR-25276. LL normally only offers the inventory repair service to premium members, so if you have this issue, now is a good time to leave Stone a comment & maybe get a free fix

Go to your Advanced menu (CTRL + Alt + D) >> Debug Settings and type in "RememberPassword" . Change the default setting to FALSE. That will delete the current password from memnory as the user logs out, forcing the next user to type their on password in. As far as I know, there is no comparable debug setting for removing your login name, but without a password the name is useless anyway. Do check to be sure, however, that the debug setting "AutoLogin" is set to its default as FALSE, so that the viewer does NOT automatically log the next person in with the previous person's name and password.

If you typed CTRL + Shift + G while you were on the login page, your should have seen a new dropdown menu open on your lower taskbar. Open that menu and select Second Life Beta, which is the same thing as Aditi. Then log in. You will be on the Aditi grid. To log in to the Main grid next time you log in, you'll have to do the same trick, but select Second Life , which is the same thing as Agni (the Main grid). ETA: Oh, I know what you mean.... You specified "Last location", but that location where you were the last time you logged in was on the Main grid. It doesn't exist on Aditi, so the servers landed you at "a nearby location." Look at the L$ balance at the top of your screen. If it says L$25,000, you are on the Aditi grid. That's play money. You can use it there, but not move it to your real account on the main grid.

You'll have some problems with scaling, because a sim in SL is 256m x 256m and I'm sure that your RL campus is much larger than that. If you scale the buildings to fit within a sim, they will be too small for anyone to enter. Also, making buildings look like their RL counterparts will take a lot of modelling skill (and probably a lot of prims). You do have some choices to make, therefore. For example, you could do a scale layout of your campus and put a kiosk or some totemic object at each spot where a RL building ought to be, explaining what's there and displaying a few photos. If you have loads of cash at your disposal, however, and want to see how one university has done a full-scale model of its campus, visit Rutgers University in world at http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/RUCE%203/217/77/38 and then talk with their SL architect, Ceera Murakami.

They will cost you L$10 per animation (about 4 cents USD) to upload, no matter where you got them from or how you made them. ETA: If you are testing animations and want to save your L$, you can always upload to the Aditi grid, where it won't cost you anything at all. You will eventually need to pay the upload fee for your finished anim when you upload it to the Main grid, but Aditi can save you money during testing.. See >>> http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Aditi

(1) Go into appearance and adjust your noob hair to be as short as you can get it (2) Wear a better bald cap. They aren't all created equal. :smileytongue:

Well, your small problem is relatively easy to handle. If you really want to use the camera control viewpad, take a look at this JIRA report >>> https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/STORM-1647 . You are not alone. There is a bug that apparently causes a delay when you just click on the control. You can beat it, sort of, by clicking and dragging, just holding the mouse button -- which is a nuisance -- or you can use the keyboard/mouse shortcuts until they fix it. Frankly, I never waste valuable screen space with the amera control viewpad anyway. Keyboard shortcuts are here >>> http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Camera-point-of-view-controls/ta-p/700047. Your other problems are all avatar baking issues, probably related to communication between your computer and SL's servers. The problem is that any changes you make to your appearance are baked on your machine and must then be uploaded to SL. If you have been using wireless, if it has been a while since you rebooted your router, or if there are other issues affecting data transmission, the changes on your machine won't sync properly with SL. Try the solutions at http://wiki.phoenixviewer.com/doku.php?id=fs_bake_fail , starting with the simplest ones at the top of their list and working down till you find one that works. I also suggest at least rebooting your router.

This is a resident-to-resident Answer service. Do you have a question? If not, consider reposting your discussion in General Discussions.

Clearing cache isn't likely to make any difference. Especially because you say that you are freezing, not simply looking like a "cloud" or an "egg," I think your fundamental problem is an unreliable Internet connection. Start with the simplest solutions first: (1) If you are using wireless, don't. Wireless gives lots of people in SL a hard time. You are vulnerable to interference from cell phones, garage door openers, the mobile phone from the guy next door, your "smart" refrigerator, and every other wireless device in the area. (2) Reboot your router. Its RAM gradually gets clogged with garbage over time, and it can lose its grip on your IP address. Unplug it from the power and walk away. Come back in a few minutes and plug it in again. It will be refreshed and ready to go. (3) Change your DNS settings. Instead of using whatever your ISP assigns you as a default, switch to Google's free public DNS servers. To see how, go here >>> http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using.html. (4) Open your Statistics Bar (CTRL + Shift + 1). Look at the numbers for Ping Sim and Packet Loss. Ping im is a measure of how long it takes for a signal to get to SL's servers from your machine. If it's much more than 100 or so, it's taking too long. Packet Loss is a measure of how much data is being lost along the way. If it's much more than a fraction of a percent, that's too much. You can do more sophisticated diagnoses ( See http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Checking_for_packet_loss_%28network_lag%29), but resolving a problem may mean having a conversation with your ISP.
