Opensimulator is FREE but not a "free-for-all" **
I have noticed there are a number of people who use the Opensimulator server software but they do not fully understand the true concept of it's OPEN nature.
In real life, I have been contributing to FREE and Open sourced software for well over a decade and I rely on it for most of my day to day computing tasks. I have a full working knowledge of what open source is and the level of freedom it gives to the people who use it. Free software gives you the ability to see the source code, change it, make it better, share your changes with friends and some open source licenses will allow you to SELL your modified code. There are many versions of Opensim such as the OSgrid builds, Arriba, Sasquatch, Isthmus or Halcyon and there is nothing stopping YOU from making your own version. You cannot do this with closed sourced software legally. This is the extent to which Opensimulator is OPEN.
Opensimulator is FREE! Free as in Freedom. You are FREE to use the software in any way that you feel is morally or socially acceptable and there is no defined method on how you should use the software. I see people all the time saying things to the effect of: "You should let everyone in your sim." or "You have no right to block bad people or grids." or "You should give everything away free because that is what Opensim was made for." If any of those statements are true then PROVE IT! Go on http://opensimulator.org and show me where it says this. I can assure you that I have completely read the BSD license and it is SHORTER than this article I am writing right now. Nowhere does the license say anything on how you should use the software because that act alone would nullify the freedoms that the Opensimulator developers have given you. You will not find (and probably never will find) any documentation enforcing edicts on how they think you should use this software. They do however have guides on getting the most out of it's features, it is an invaluable resource.
What does all of this mean? FREEDOM FOR ALL but NOT a free-for-all. You have the right to impose RULES on your sims and Opensim software gives grid operators powerful OSSL code to deal with interlopers and troublemakers. Nobody should walk all over you and tell you how to run your grid, when it is your servers, your money and your resources. YOU ARE IN CONTROL. Grid operators have the ability to block any viewer they want, it is built right in. You define how your grid operates and are under no obligation to obey anyone who hates you for using these features. Some may say "Because a feature exists does not mean you should use it." and they would be WRONG because these settings would not be included if the Opensimulator developers did not intend for people to use them.
I challenge anyone who disagrees with this article to visit http://opensimulator.org and show me any documentation which refutes anything I have said. I will only accept submissions from the aforementioned url because it is the OFFICIAL website for the Opensimulator project and they are the supreme authority governing it's use.
Feel free to share this article when needed.
Peace & Love

| | CyberGlo CyberStar: The great thing about this "live & let live" attitude, is it means we can EVEN encompass the grinches. 2 years ago |
Yay, here I am at Paris in AMV! Took me a bit of time last night to settle on a basic look. I'm sporting the Athena body with the Lelutka Erin head, same as my OSgrid avi, but lighter skin. I've also tried to add a bit more thickness to her compared to the other one.
I'd love to age myself a bit more here. That's not a typo! Is there a good store in Open Sim that has aged body skins? I have tried out the aged face skins from the BoM pack and they do work well, but I could use some body freckles and veins for a more convincing aged look. Not too old, let's say 45-55, basically my age group IRL.
TIA :)

Heute eröffne ich eine neue Ebene auf Clandestine. Im Elbenland gibt es nun ein Castle Winterspell, ich hoffe euch gefällt die Elbe Winterlandschaft. Schaut euch das Schloss an und findet den Weg zu den Menschen oder geht einfach mal den Drachenwächter besuchen, der den letzten Drachen beschützt, der tief im Berg lebt, weil er ein guter Drache ist. Ich hoffe, ihr habt Spaß dabei. Eure Taliya
Today I open a new level on Clandestine. In Elbenland there is now a Castle Winterspell, I hope you like the Elbe winter landscape. Check out the castle and find your way to the humans or just go visit the dragon guard who protects the last dragon that lives deep in the mountain because he is a good dragon. I hope you enjoy it.

I have actually had Rebelworld in operation on simonastick many years ago in 1 form, or another prior to joining opensimworld even. It was accesible only to friends using Hamachi, and Rebelworld has existed here several years, but redid it, and it's postings here fairly recently. I mostly share older content, and non mesh avatars, and clothing for those that still want such things. Rebelworld actually consist of 30, 16 region each worlds, but the rest are created for friends in their avatars names, or used for testing oar drops, building, etc by me, or remain unpublished, but ALL can be visited if invited by the members who have them, or if someone simply ask. :) I used to also create with Sketchup, and import things into a social/building website called Kaneva, but lost my creations due to storage loss, and forgot much after a coma. So currently have no plans to create/import private items much really in the future, but that is not written in stone. Time will tell. haha! :D My health, finances are poor at present, but I DO plan to try share newer content, and mesh avatars that are freely shared here in opensim in the future as well hopefully. Currently my grid suffered severe loss due to computer malfunction, and a slow restorative process of it's many worlds is slowly ongoing as I am able. I reverted back to an older opensim/dreamgrid version after I lost almost all of my server data, but still chipping away at it! This older version runs smoother, faster, and launches quicker than the new versions. At least it does for me. So sticking with it! haha! ;) Welcome to my oldies, but goodies, and to my world. Rebelworld! ^^ hugs n high 5's :)

A famous but humble man once said, "“When I get dressed, I put my pants on one leg at a time like everyone else." Here at oh HELLO we put our pants on both legs and butt all at once! Amazing but true.
Here is a new outfit at oh HELLO with a pair of all-at-once putter-onner pants and a matching top. The detaling on these is perfectly matched by an exquisite white-silver scarf/necklace and the pair of flats. I always add the hair last when assembling an outfit, and this hair just thrilled me with how right it looks. You will be thrilled that you can personalize your look with the fat-packs in the vendor.
oh HELLO. Outfits with Options and our patented all-at-once putter-onner pants.

Hair History Is Being Made Today at oh HELLO
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word "redhead" has been in use since at least 1510. According to me, my AV has been a redhead not once since at least 1510 -- until today. You can get an outfit at oh HELLO that commemorates this historic day, and if you like, you can use the hair HUD to make your hair a historic color for yourself.
Oh HELLO - Outfits with Options &, every 500 years, historic hair.

Another Brrrrry release at the shop. At least this time something that will warm you up.
I've put out a winter log seat with SFposer for sitting by the campfire. When you need to feel toasty but still want to be outside. Campfire included of course :).

Yay! OSG is back online and I've got another Polar Bear release. These bears work well outside like street lamps however, they are heavier meshes than the regular street lamps so you might not want to rez like 50 of them. I'm using them in a winter area as lamps for feature spots. As with the ceiling lamps they have 3 different bears and automatic or manual light scripts.
So, in the event you are looking for a frosty yet romantic winter fantasy vibe, these are winter magic frosty trees. The leaves are still on them and somehow froze and became a shade of white, definitely total magic.
Make some hot chocolate and wear your mittens if you put them out.

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!
