here we are. another collaborative project that opensim allows.
starting from a fact that could pass for a joke we have a group and a region.
to participate it's simple. you must be the creator of the object and give it full perm.
the region is provided to us by hyacinthe admin of https://groovyverse.com/.
you need the group to rez.
the osw group : https://opensimworld.com/groups/1078
there is no desire for competition or even provocation.
let's say that it is the product of amateur creators but in a less standardized way

Some *might* have noticed that these words have been in every one of the four store builds since I started a year ago. Therefore:
'...let there be beauty and strength, power and compassion, honour and humility, mirth and reverence within you...'

Wishing everyone a great 2025 !

I actually considered canceling my account completely this week, so I just took some time to reflect. I put a lot of effort into everything we do, and if you believe it's only for myself, you're completely mistaken. We also work on Second Life and the open sim world. I detest being accused of being someone I'm not and called a liar. I have always taken people at face value. If you don't know me, don't criticize me. And I will support those I call who I consider friends or more, just like I did for Adora.
Everybody has their own problems and is constantly coping with something, so when someone has to play a game and is treated disrespectfully, I say enough.
It's unfortunate, in my opinion, that someone as young as five days old can create an account on this site and start so much drama. How come she can? Because she's got the money to do it. Unfortunately, money always plays a part in a lot of what we do.
Lise Please don't talk about anything you don't want to talk about. Which is it, Lester or Lise? Have a wonderful day, stop lying to people about who you are, and get out of Dallas.

Happy Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you!

wHAT YOU LEFT ME LISE.......THEN YOU BLOCKED ME LOL Good best thing u did!!

Just for the record, as regard to the insinuating comment on my profile, it's from Dallas Mall (Adore), who operates several accounts on OSW. She was not happy with my comment about the toxic nature of Gentle Fire Grid.

JUST HAD ENOUGH OF BS!!!

In the heart of the digital realm, where grids and codes intertwined, there existed a special place known as the Gentle Fire Grid. This grid was unlike any other; it was a warm, welcoming community where avatars from all corners of the virtual world gathered to share stories, create art, and celebrate together.

As Christmas approached, the Gentle Fire Grid buzzed with excitement. The avatars decorated their virtual homes with twinkling lights, digital wreaths, and pixel-perfect Christmas trees. The air was filled with the sound of cheerful carols and the scent of virtual gingerbread cookies.

One chilly December evening, the grid's founder, a wise and kind avatar named Santa Mint, decided to host a grand Christmas party. Invitations were sent out to all the neighboring grids, including the renowned OpenSim. The message read, "Merry Christmas from Gentle Fire Grid to OpenSim! Join us for a night of joy, laughter, and celebration with live singer's and DJ's"

On the night of the party, avatars from OpenSim arrived, their digital forms glowing with anticipation. They were greeted with open arms and warm smiles. The Gentle Fire Grid had prepared a feast of virtual delicacies, from pixelated plum pudding to holographic coffee.

As the night went on, the avatars shared stories of their adventures, exchanged gifts, and danced under the shimmering lights of the virtual sky. Santa Mint stood by the grand Christmas tree, watching the joy spread across the grid. It was a night to remember, a night where the boundaries of the digital world melted away, and the true spirit of Christmas shone brightly.

And so, the Gentle Fire Grid and OpenSim celebrated together, creating memories that would last a lifetime. It was a reminder that no matter where you are, the warmth of community and the magic of Christmas can bring everyone together.

Found a parking space for the X-Wing over at the store. Flew her over from Luna Starbase after giving her a new PBR paint job. Might be time again to give her some exercise flying across the grid.

Made by Lain Iwakura of Iwakura Systems and scripted by Armenious Horada. I helped Lain with the model upload issues and some of the texturing and also helped with flight testing. They have some interesting hud, weapons, and flight characteristics. Armenious has moved on to other projects outside of Opensim and Lain is no longer making the models though she is still on Kitely. Their entire inventory of about 20 ships was given to me as a trust to preserve. I'll eventually display them all at Starbase.

You can see the X-Wing at the store next to the cinema. HG Address is grid.wolfterritories.org:8002:Lunaria Emporium - Main Store

When creating my metal for jewelry I found @FredFerderix Outworldz Metal Plates, these give the best effects on metal wow. These work well with ceilings too https://outworldz.com/cgi/free-seamless-textures.plx?c=Met...

Old concrete walls exude a rugged charm, their surfaces marked by time and the elements. Pitted with irregular holes, these imperfections create a textured landscape that catches the light in interesting ways. Stains of various hues—rusty browns, faded greens, and deep grays—tell stories of weathering and wear, as moss and lichen cling stubbornly to the cracks. The rough, mottled surface feels cool to the touch, while the air carries a faint, earthy scent of dampness and age. Each blemish and discoloration adds character, transforming the wall into a canvas of history, where every mark holds a memory of its past.

21st September is WORLD PEACE DAY!

Whilst it may seem slightly frivolous, ZetaWorlds is having an event/party, We can't end the wars, the assault on Ukraine by Putin's Russia, the conflict in Gaza made worse by Israel's tamper tantrum, the military junta terrorizing Myanmar, but we can raise awareness and we can make a difference!

Anyone that buys a region that day, any package really, all proceeds will be given to Angel of Life aid for Ukraine! Let's raise some money!
The charity is linked here: https://angel-of-life.weblium.site
(additional information: https://www.volunteeringukraine.com/en/volunteer-opportuni... [added by Mathilda Stark])

The day starts of with a Q&A session again with Edison and Vincent answering burning issues, questions, and talking us through planned upgrades etc. Please direct your questions and anything you might want to discuss here: https://zetaworlds.com/forms/questionnaire

So the timetable for the day:
8am: Q&A Session
10am: Quirkessential DJane HAZEL ITO plays one of her unique mixes
11am: Sees the return of live singer ROGUE GALAXY to center stage
12 noon: High noon, for our live DJ MATTIE
1pm: It's the normally naked DJ RUUD, but this time at least partly clothed, don't miss this!
2pm: Our lovely ELLEMIR takes over the decks before handing over at
3pm: to the next live DJ NORA COLA

So please come and join us, donate to great charities one way on another, and make it a night to show support for the wronged and a world living in peace and harmony!

If that somehow offends you: Attacking fellow humans is abhorrent whether it be punching your neighbor or invading a whole country for no reason.
