OUR HEARTS ARE HEAVY
It is with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of one of our long time grid members Trizzy Hunter. All of us at Virtual Beach are devastated and sadden by this news, please bare with us while we grieve.
If you knew Trizzy or visited one of her many regions, you knew how much work she put into them. She took time to create stores and such for all to love. Trizzy was a great friend to all who knew her as well as helping someone in world when they needed it. She helped me a lot when i messed up my terrain or needed something in world. She will be truly missed.
Trizzy's memory will live on forever at Virtual Beach, please continue to honor her legacy by visiting one of her many regions listed below that is open all year long.

**1 Year Anniversary of Starchild Shoppe: NEW LOCATION!**
1 year ago Starchild Shoppe opened its doors with a single furniture store. Since then it has expanded beyond what I could have imagined! I want to thank every single person who has crossed its door and has taken the time to thank the effort behind!
I have also heard your feedback, it is why I have consolidated all the stores into their own region with a central store (beauty) at ground, and then skyboxes reachable via the TP board. Super special thanks to Shan Naggins for making it happen! What was going to be just one new store, ended up being an entire mall set up with much more room for growth!
NEW LOCATION: hop://playground.darkheartsos.com:8002/Starchild%20Shoppe/...

Hi folks, you will start seeing a bit more of this around. Long story short: a bunch of as OS contributors have come together to align and improve with our shared brains!
=The Gilded Accord=
The Gilded Accord is a collective of active OpenSim contributors who came together to align and coordinate their efforts.
Its raison the etre is to align the existing efforts and labour of love of the top OpenSim contributors, fostering sharing of best practices, and cross-pollination: because the result of the sum of some part can sometimes be bigger, be the exponential improvement that is born out of many creative minds working together!
Its vision is an OpenSim hyper-world that enjoys free, quality items.
The aims of the Accord are to:
1. Offer a forum for active creators from different grid to coordinate themselves.
2. Foster sharing of best practices.
3. Drive standardisation on standard items, nomenclature and approach that enable further development of dependant items (i.e. appliers, auto-alpha...)
4. Maximise the each members effort by aligning on contributions roadmap.
5. Freely sharing core items (scripts, and similar) that both standarise and improve items
6. Share and align best practices
7. Weave a network of trusted, quality stores across the hypergrid.
The standards of Accord member are:
1. Respecting other people's contributions, while also encouraging consensual sharing of items across stores (particularly 'core' items like body skins, bodies, heads...that are always handy to have in different grids).
2. Standarising the use of [at least!] MOD+COPY format for items
3. Championing the use of normal and specular layers - especially for new items.
4. Making a reasonable use of physics (prioritising bounding box) and reasonable levels of LOD, ensuring a smoother loading on hypergrid.
5. Leverage standardised nomenclature (i.e. use the same names for body and head faces, so other people can create appliers for them).
6. Focus on items for adult avis.
7. Promotion and champion of other members work.
This sounds nice - but what does it look like?
For Accord member: A private discord server section where we can align and share. 'Hey I'm focusing on contributing X', 'Oh, then I'm going to focus on Y which complements X'.
For overall OS members: A trusted networks of stores that meet same standards, as well as regular updates on them from our discord!

Strahlend, wie ein schöner Traum,

Seht nur, wie sich goldenes Licht

„Frohe Weihnacht“

Leuchtet hell vom Himmelszelt
hinunter auf die ganze Welt
ich wünsche allen frohe Weihnachten

what if.....
we spent our time focusing on our similarities
instead of our differences?
I have seen many discussions here become very toxic recently because people are focused on how we are all different. I love how we all are different, but we also have some common similarities; the most obvious is that we are all people behind the pixels.
Sometimes in life and Opensim, it is much easier to tear a person down than to build them up. Let's make the extra effort and support eachother!
This is our Opensim.....lets take pride in it!

Blessed Yuletide from The Starchilds!
Let this be my gift and Blessing to you: 'May, when give the choice, you always choose kindness. For you are all Children of the Earth and Starry Heavy, but your race is of Heaven Alone'.
For it's when the choice is the hardest to make, that becomes the most meaningful. May, when blame, when criticism, when frustration are the easy paths, you still make the hardest choice to be kind. For in this dwells a great Mystery of the quality of humankind.
As Miradola portrayed:
'We have given thee, Adam, no fixed seat, no form of thy very own, no gift peculiarly thine, that thou mayest feel as thine own, have as thine own, possess as thine own the seat, the form, the gifts which thou thyself shalt desire. A limited nature in other creatures is confined within the laws written down by us. In conformity with thy free judgment, in whose hands I have place thee, thou art confined by no bound; and thou wilt fix limits of nature for thyself. I have placed thee at the centre of the world. Neither heavenly nor earthly, neither mortal nor immortal have we made thee. Thou, like a judge appointed for being honourable, art the moulder and maker of thyself; thou mayest sculpt thyself into whatever shape thou dost prefer. Thou canst grow downward into the lower natures which are brutes. Thou canst again grow upward from thy soul's reason into the higher natures which are divine'.
Bright Blessing!

Thank you for giving me your friendship and support. I cherish the laughter we share, your gift of forever smiles makes my season and year bright. Best wishes in the New Year 💗🎄💗

Ihr Lieben,
ich wünsche euch ein frohes neues Jahr und nur das Beste ....
Das neue Jahr fängt an und auch der Stil hat sich geändert. Wir laden euch herzlichst auf unsere Baustelle ein um schon einmal reinzuschnuppern.
Wenn es die Zeit zulässt wollen wir vor dem 6.1. noch eine schöne Poolparty machen. Derzeit werkel ich an der Shop Area wo wir euch mit neuer Kleidung, Scripten (evtl. das Tanzsystem *grins*) und mehr beglücken werden ....
Die Region hat eine Größe von 8x8 Sims und wird täglich weiter bebaut also immer mal reinschauen.
Aus Zeitgründen werde ich nicht doppelt texturieren sprich die Texturen sind primär PBR-lastig (ein alter Viewer sieht viel weiss xD).
Gruß Wiener

I woke up to a message from @Ferdzee casually saying, "Oh, by the way, your grid now supports PBR." Wait, WHAT? PBR? You mean DG has PBR now? Yep! Shiny, beautiful gold—Yay! Over time, I'll be updating all my jewelry. It’ll take a while, but the future is looking golden and brilliant! Dreamgrid 5.9 is PBR!
