A new region is being born at the GavezDois Art Gallery. It’s called Minimalist Corner.

There will be exhibited works of art made with the basic OpenSIm primitives, arranged in different shapes, colors, textures and movements, in order to create pieces that are aesthetically pleasing to observe.

Although it is still being made, it is already open to the public with the pieces that have already been exhibited.

A Japanese sim on a terraced Lava mountain with cherry trees.

We celebrate Hanami here, please come join us. three.hills.grid.outworldz.net:8002:Zensational https://three.hills.grid.outworldz.net/index.php/zensation... without Ferd Frederix, none of this would be possible.

I have noticed that in recent scripting the lsl compiler will frown on assignment of variables at the same time as declaration. Example: integer intNum = 5; Now the compiler seems to want a separate declaration and a separate assignment like this: integer intNum; intNum = 5; I have noticed this stops many scripts from working right. You can also no longer do this: for (integer i=0....) because the integer i is both defined and assigned in the same statement. Additionally I have noticed that you cannot simply say touch_start() anymore, but must say touch_start(integer p) and pass in the integer number of the detected touch. I am wondering if the assignment/declaration problem also applies to global variables? Is anyone aware of these changes? I know that touch_start() used to work, but now doesn't without the parameter passed by value.

I played "smart" and made one of the information boards speak in several languages. It looks at the viewer's language and tells the information accordingly. However, I have no way to check if it works properly. If the viewer is not English-speaking, would you mind going and checking?

With a little imagination it is also possible to see Lisbon, at the GavezDois Art Gallery, in Osgrid.

The sequence of images that line the path to a small square typical of the capital of Portugal, takes us to the main points of the city in the most diverse artistic styles.

In addition to the different rooms of the huge AI art gallery, there are works of art spread across different parts of the island for visitors to discover.

What a very busy day for me. Phew! So glad to be home. I am quite tired of driving. :D I discovered that the wonderful Fred Beckheusen has added email to dreamgrid some time ago. This means if you enable it, that objects can send emails to other objects, as well as to and from your real world email. I enabled it in dreamgrid (SORRY OSGRID DOESNT HAVE THIS FEATURE ENABLED). I then created a box that is an email terminal. You click it, enter a subject and a message and click send. It sends the email straight to my email address. I tested it, AND IT WORKS GREAT!!! Fred is Genius.

So there was some bugs in the magic huds that prevented them from working on some simulator versions. I believe I have fixed these issues. The huds I've been able to update so far are: The Witches Hud, The Fae Hud, The Elven Hud. If you encounter any problems with these 3 huds at all, please send me a message on here, and I will fix them. I have not yet fixed the vampires magic ring or the wizardry hud, but will get around to it sometime this week as I have been very sick the past 4 days, and have a lot going on in real life.

Get ready for Simona and Soft Bands - the hottest new avatars in town! Simona, our gorgeous gal with the in-house Athena/Lara design, is waiting for you to come pick up her smokin' body. But heads up: we'll be dropping an update on her soon with some sick new looks, so make sure to join the group to be the first to snag her when she's back and better than ever!

And check out the sleek Soft Bands chilling in this fly building with Simona. Their Huds come in light and dark shades to match your style. Plus, 90% of the trendy threads at Vesti were made to show off Simona/Athena's curves!

So what are you waiting for? Come on down and outfit your new fave avitar before everyone else steals her style! This is one launch you won't wanna miss!

RANDOM THOUGHT ON AN ARCANE TEXTURE, CREEPY NEIGHBORS, CREATIVITY and INTEGRITY PART II TWO (ELECTRIC BOOGALOO)

RANDOM THOUGHT ON AN ARCANE TEXTURE, CREEPY NEIGHBORS, CREATIVITY and INTEGRITY

When we last left my meandering rant, i mentioned that my landlord and (Undecel Masala at Masala Estates!) regarding two regions that had popped up right next to mine. I was "Avedon Park" and they were Avedon Forest and another name. When I explained that I had no relation at all to the owners of those regions, my landlord and HERO was kind enough to lift my region up and move it elsewhere. Apparently, they were just trying to copy as much of my whole damn region as they could. And soon enough, a region pops up using the same naming concept as me. (Avedon Park, How about Avedon's Peak? Mark's Park? or Avedon Place? Oh well. As so many like to argue, this is how we roll in OS and it "happens all the time". The saddest part is that these are people I associate with and consider friends!

Jump ahead only a month or so later that I started releasing the history or "lore" I have created and posting it here for people to enjoy. It is an overall narrative that applies not only to the region in OS but is also being used as part of a graphic novel, artwork, and music. It was less than a week that a similar "history' with just a minor change or two popped up at the previously mentioned region.
Anyone who says copying is the best form of flattery should be stripped naked, tied to the back of a truck, and drug down a main street.) Again, you can make endless arguments about how "everyone does it" "that is how OS works" and "no laws are being broken" (though I am learning fast that is questionable!). The point is that it shows a complete lack of INTEGRITY. It is such a shitty thing to do, especially in OS, where you are not likely to make any sort of financial gain from it, you are just doing it for "likes" and laziness.

But enough whinging. What can you really do about any of this? Well, after some research, I probably more than you think, especially if you live in the US.

First, say something! Even if you end up being wrong, it is important to publicly express your feelings on the issue and explain your work.

Second, Copywrites and protection through the DMCA are fairly easy and cheap (ie Free) to acquire. You can file for protection yourself for free, OR you can find someone who is already protected and simply absorb your content into their protection. And in the US you often don't have to file ANYTHING to be protected if your idea has been completed and made public, you can seek DMCA protections.

Now, and here we go back to just needing some integrity.

Idea vs. Expression:
Ideas themselves cannot be copyrighted. This means that the core concept or plot of your project cannot be exclusively protected by copyright.
However, the expression of that idea—how you write it down, how you present it, and certain details or traits—can be protected. (This is the future path I am walking but you should choose what works for you)

Also, OSGrid and other grids need to do more to police themselves. Know the difference between BOB Q Guy buying an item in SL or Kitely, copying it and bringing into Open Sim, and handing it out, as compared to someone just taking a person's work without payment or permission, and then claiming it as their own idea or concept. And don't assist them by allowing them to use your website and tools to promote a hijacked concept.

And finally, when it happens just speak out. you will take hell for it and you might even be WRONG, but speak up and let people know this hurts you.

and wow, did I just ramble on or what?? Sorry about that, but I do think there is a possible "integrity deficit" in our house and it would be up to us each to change that. I now climb off my teeny tiny soapbox and just wish you ALL a happy weekend. Feel free to come by Avedon Park and visit. We welcome everyone.
