Phoenix and I are working on a Newcomers' Guide. Since I was (and in some ways, still am) a newbie not too long ago, I remember the things that are really helpful to learn right ago, like camera controls.
But to make sure it's a complete guide, what information do YOU think would be helpful to newbs?

On my very first day, I was given a folder FULL of places newbie avs should check out...
I will pass it to you in game... Some of it, I am sure you already have.. but there may be some stuff in there you don't. If you don't want it, just discard. I am also pulling together a couple of boxes of formal wear, one for gentlemen and one for ladies. These are freebies gatherred from around SL, but I am picky, so they are pretty nice. Formal clothes, jewelry and shoes. You never know when you might need something a little more dressy. Let me know if you are setting up a newbie help station. I would be happy to donate my collection. _____________________

I think a guide on how to wear clothes would be wonderful. And perhaps a warning about what to do when you wear a box on your head.

www.zapoteth.com has a Tutorials page.. The odds and ends has a few things I've been asked a lot, which isn't common knowledge amongst newbies
Feel free to use it.._____________________

I have a ton of stuff for newbs in the form of notecards I've been writing and a general guide for a Q&A as well as some of the notecards the mentors and greeters and live help hand out. I would love to trade stuffs with you.
I also boxes of free clothes organized into men and women's. |
