The Rainbow Bridge in Luxor. Working with glass using PBR, which needs texture, reflectivity, and transparency to look real. Before PBR we were missing the reflectivity part, which could only be rendered by duplicating the prims above and flipping them upside down.

Planned Maintenance this morning took out 3 nodes of our High Availability Cluster. the cluster moved things around to keep things online. We lost 2 nodes out of our Mariadb 5-node Galera cluster and brought them back automatically total down time I reckon 5-10 minutes for what for some grids would have ben a catastrophic failure. https://www.wolf-grid.com

SkyRealm embraces Spacetime. A complex and fascinating subject, and it continues to be an area of active research. The insights that have been gained from relativity have revolutionized our understanding of the universe, and they continue to challenge our intuition.

Fred Beckhusen-Ferd Frederix Thank you, for lending a hand in this project. Fred took a model with over 800 parts then used Blender modifiers to clean edges, and a script that helped to reduce the level of detail. He made it six layers of over a hundred parts each then stacked it on top of the mountain. Without Fred's help and guidance, this would not have been possible. Sincerely thank you, Fred. Jamie Anna Wright thank you for contributing to the clock collection. three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:SkyRealm

Imagine living in a house where you step out your back door and you are at the most amazing underwater world in Opensim! You always wanted to live next to the ocean, but somehow the underwater world was always missing. Instead of the usual backyard garden or patio, you’d have a direct connection to an oceanic paradise with more than 5,000 fish and animals.

You step in the water at your house and you are greeted by the soft sway of colorful coral reefs, schools of shimmering fish darting through crystal-clear waters, and the soothing sound of underwater currents. The vibrant sea life surrounds you, from playful dolphins and majestic sea turtles to curious jellyfish and exotic creatures you've only ever read about. This is now your back yard!

You could swim freely or explore in a variety of ways. Imagine taking a peaceful swim, discovering hidden underwater caves, or diving deeper to visit shipwrecks where you might uncover forgotten treasures. The world would be filled with endless opportunities for exploration, all from the comfort of your own home. Perhaps there’s even a stunning underwater garden filled with bioluminescent plants that glow in the dark or glowing creatures that light up the waters around you, creating an ethereal atmosphere.

For the first time, we are opening up our underwater worlds for 9 very lucky people who want to live there. There is an underwater home, a home with a cenote, a shack, a wreck and a few gorgeous homes. Although every house is different, the beauty of these homes begins when you step in the water. We are looking for residents who want to be active and make this their main home. These rentals are free....but we do not want land collectors, we want people who want to become a part of our community.

Just go to the Reef at friends grid and there is a large black tp board which will let you look at the houses in this very special location.

One of my mother's favorite flowering bushes was the Forsythia with it's bright gold flowers and lime green leaves she often cut a few branches and put them in a vase of water on the dining room table, it was simple but very pretty. So I decided to make a Forsythia bush and make it available to all who would like one, it could make great hedges or privacy walls, it's mesh and resizable and only one prim. You can find it in our ''Garden Center" here at the mall. Blessings and much love, Lavia
PS I upgraded the bush to be totally 3D which is more prims but well worth it for how pretty it looks, it's now 10 prims instead of 1 but the first one looked cheep this one actually looks real.

Howdy folks!!! One of our new grid members wanted a house that was very open, so with that thought in mind I created this house for her, however I'm making it available to anyone who would like it. This house features a built in fireplace, split levels, spiral stairs, decks, recessed ceiling lights (touch light), sliding doors and a carport. The build is pretty much all prim so it will be easy to modify and the mesh parts can be resized and re textured to your liking. It is full perm and free here at our mall, stop by and check it out. Blessings and much love, Lavia.

Is the statue of the Mithraic God "arimanius" related to the 38,000 year old lowenmensch figurine? Both are LionMen figurines. Is it possible that remnants of some ancient religion anthropomorphizing lion/men figures filtered down through time into Mithraicism? You decide. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arimanius

I added a few new bracelets to the Monentes Jewelry store, you will find them in the center of the store near the Classic Closet entrance. Thank you Melanie for the inspiration 💗 yes, I love creating adding more as we speak! Please stop by anytime 🤗
