**A Tribute to Verna Avril: DJ, Creator, and Friend**
Today, we pause to honor and celebrate the extraordinary Verna Avril, a beloved DJ at Event Plaza, an accomplished builder, and a cherished friend to so many. Verna has recently been diagnosed with late-stage cancer, and while the news has left us heartbroken, her unwavering spirit continues to shine brightly in the time she has left.

For those who have had the privilege of knowing Verna, you know her as a force of nature. Her music has been the heartbeat of Event Plaza, where she transforms gatherings into magical experiences, spinning tracks that bring people together and create memories that last a lifetime. As a DJ, Verna doesn’t just play music—she shares her soul through every beat and rhythm.

Beyond her music, Verna is a visionary builder and creator. She owns and curates numerous regions, each a testament to her incredible talent and love for creating beautiful spaces. Her worlds are filled with life, imagination, and wonder—a reflection of her boundless creativity and dedication.

Verna’s style and charisma are as unforgettable as her music. Always impeccably dressed in her signature short black dresses, she carries herself with grace and confidence that inspire those around her. But it’s her warmth, kindness, and generosity that truly make her unforgettable.

In this challenging time, Verna has shown us the depth of her strength. Even as she faces this diagnosis, she continues to remind us of the importance of living fully, loving deeply, and creating beauty wherever we can.

As her community, let us rally around her with our love and support. Share your stories, your memories, and your gratitude for the joy she’s brought into your life. Let’s celebrate Verna Avril—not just for what she’s accomplished, but for who she is: a beacon of light, creativity, and love.

We don’t know how much time we have left with her, but we do know this—every moment with Verna is a gift. Let’s cherish these moments together and honor her legacy, now and always.

Stay strong, Verna. You are loved more than words can express. 💖

Aussie and I will be hosting an event to celebrate our friend Verna Avril. In the meantime, please post messages for her here as she cannot be in Opensim but can read this website. Thank you in advance for posting for her! I will make all the messages and stories into an online book for Verna.

'...And ye shall be free from slavery. And as a sign that ye be really free, ye shall be naked in your rites. And ye shall dance, sing, feast, make music and love all in my praise.
For mine is the ecstasy of the spirit, and mine also is joy upon Earth, for my law is love unto all beings...'

As some of you might have seen, the region hosting the Shoppe has divided into four themed ones, and so have we!

While the previous location is still available, it will be decomissioned soon!

Today is the day!!! I am so excited to finally open the gallery for all to enjoy! Thank you to everyone who has supported and encouraged me over this long journey to get here. I can't wait to see you all! Noon grid time. Formal because we like to dress up!

THE LOVE LOCK BRIDGE
This corner is inspired by the Parisian tradition of "The Lock Bridge", by which for many generations thousands of lovers leave their locks on a bridge over the Seine and throw the keys into the river, manifesting with this gesture that their love is eternal. Putting locks is illegal nowadays in RL, but in iEchoes you still can put yours.
Come request it today and let's fill Opensim with love.

Opensimworld.com is a great way to promote all the wonderful creations we can find in different grids and I think this is the purpose of this website. Promoting creativity, giving people the ability to explore and see what others create. This is why Im sponsoring this website with advertisements and announcements. Lately I observe this place is filled with comments of personal kind , ( some would call it drama ). I am sure the majority here visiting this website for the same reason as I do are not happy with the continuously posted remarks of personal kind ( and disrespectful) . I wish to ask all who use this wonderful website to consider , where it was built for. If this website will become a gathering place for people who wish to display their frustrations, it will chase away others who are willing to invest in this medium. Please take this in consideration before you post ( and please use English if you can, this is an international community)

Bald ist es soweit - noch einmal schlafen, dann startet - wie jedes Jahr - der Adventskalender auf Eternal Ice.
Alle Geschenke sind von ihrem jeweiligen Tag bis zur Entfernung des Adventskalenders erhältlich- es gibt also keinen Zeitdruck, jeden Tag nach dem Kalender sehen zu "müssen", um kein Geschenk zu verpassen ...
* * *
Soon it will be time - sleep once more, then - like every year - the advent calendar on Eternal Ice will start.
All gifts are available from their respective day until the Advent calendar is removed- so there is no need to check the calendar every day to not miss a gift....

Winter is here, Yay! Well, yay for some :).
I have a new release today, fairly whimsical; Polar Bear Ceiling Lights. They were made as ceiling lights and they are resizable. I did a large version separately as the automatic light script had to be adjusted for the life size bears.
There are automatic and manual light scripts in the regular size lights, you can delete the auto script in the large ones and put in the manual if you like.
I have a couple of more ideas for the bears that will be out soon.
Have a beary nice day!

Offworld has existed for a total of 18 years now. It was first called "Land of Vikings," then became "Gridworld," and finally "Offworld."
We're marking this occasion and celebrating this milestone with a small event.
On Friday, August 8, 2025, from (CET) 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., Genie will be giving his best on the microphone. Starting at 9 p.m., the fantastic Phaandor Pertwee will take over the stream.

Offworld existiert nun insgesammt 18 Jahre, zuerst hiess es "Land of Vikings", dann wurde es zu "Gridworld" und schlussendlich dann "Offworld".
Wir nehmen diesen Anlass und feiern dieses Ereignis mit einer kleinen Veranstaltung.
Am Freitag den 08.08.25 von 19 - 21 Uhr gibt Genie sein Bestes am Mikrofon. Ab 21 Uhr übernimmt dann der phantastische Phaandor Pertwee den Stream.

I also found another project that I would like to share with you. The Dope Train Station Bar

*** YYT-Market...So far, I've sorted out almost all of the YYT boxes and set them up in the YYT market. If I find any more items, I'll of course make them available too.***

Not So Naughty store is back!
A store specialized in quality adult content.

For now it only contains old items made on Sacrarium grid, hence the store setup which looks quite empty. Follow the Old stuff signs to find them.
But I wish I have time to build new stuff, so stay tuned by joining the group.

Don't hesitate to click on the hostess to get a quick history of this store.

Thank you for bringing to my attention CyberGlo on many of my items in the store was set to original, so when the person did purchase them, they became their item. I have been working hard to get DALLAS put together, and in doing this, I was not aware items were set to original, and I am very sorry, and most of all, I owe these people an apology.

Ambar2.Jurado @hg.osgrid.org:80 but i really feel terrible that such a negative experience on my part happened.

I haven't had access to my computer since June 20th. I was hospitalized for a week and since I was discharged I have been crashing at besties.

That means no access to my hanheld discord, handheld yahoo mail or that fb. I have had my virtualverse app on my phone, at least. I just now realized that this account is tied to my Harper Gmail and did a reset.

So, I'm not sure when I'll be home again. One week? Two?

I doubt anyone's noticed (I’ve been scarce as it is) but if anyone asks, I haven’t kicked the bucket yet (though w/ 3 ER visits in June alone it’s been a near thing!)

Thank you for your attention in this matter

Picked up the lovely Celia avatar from Agartha just for the gown, which is gorgeous just with the regular textures. But I couldn't resist adding the gold pbr textures you see here. The dress is no transfer, so I can't give away a copy, but I put out a box in the lobby at Lunaria Emporium with the materials and textures I created for it. You can find it near the group joiner next to a viking outfit, both are free and full perm to use how you like.

You can find the original Celia avatar here: hop://agartha.ovh:8002/Agartha/218/57/1514

You gotta love a challenge☺.
It's painstaking time-consuming, so, making the anims now for the ready birdie.....takes some more ♫ time, patience is the key.
