My Norma Jeane

Before she became Marilyn Monroe she was Norma Jeane

This is my virtual version of a timeless and stunning goddess

I made a copy of the original shape and made the body and neck slightly shorter

I didn’t make any changes to the face or head

This is my second re-creation of LAQ’s Monroe

Budgeting In Second Life

 

People join Second Life for a lot of different reasons, whether it is to make friends, to be creative, or to find love, the list is endless, when it comes to Second Life, one thing is for sure, shopping is always fun.

Second Life is free. You don’t need money to register an account, or to create your avatar, but it does help. 

Here are my tips for ways to budget in Second Life, and how to get a few freebies as you go.

Join as many groups as you can, some groups are free, while others charge a fee, a lot of groups are for stores who offer group gifts to their members, always have a look to see what is on offer before you join, especially if it is a group that is going to cost you Linden dollars.

Make the most of your shopping experiences, there are Midnight Mania boards in almost every store, just slap a few while you’re out and about, you never know, you may get lucky, however, some Midnight Mania boards are for group members only.

Lucky Chairs are like the Midnight Mania boards, and may only apply to group members, either way, you sit on a chair when your letter comes up to claim your gift.

Lucky boards are a bit of a waiting game, the boards will each display a series of gifts and a letter, click the board if it displays your letter, once more, check to see if these gifts are for group members only.

Look for stores that offer free mesh bodies and heads, as well as free skins and hair.

Try to keep at least one of your group slots available so that you can change groups when it suits you.

My hair and clothes as shown in these pics are all group gifts, have fun with it, and happy group gift shopping.
