Not the art that people are posting that they have done, but old masters, like
Rembrandt, Monet, Gauguin, along that line. Want copies to put in my home in SL.. Thanks..

That's pretty easy to do yourself, if you can find an image you like online. Just upload it, create an appropriately sized prim, and add the image as a texture. If you want a frame, you can either buy one, buy a frame texture and add it to a prim as above, or add a frame layer to the image prior to upload.
All of which probably makes no sense if you haven't played with the build tools yet. lol

As long as it's saved somewhere on your computer, it'll work.  You just use File>Upload Image to get it into SL, where it will probably look distorted since it'll be resized to some multiple of 256px (256x256, 256x512, etc). Fear not, though...as long as the prim base has the correct dimensions, the image will stretch back out once you apply it as a texture. For pictures, I usually create a cube with the build tools, then use the red, blue, and/or green Stretch 'handles' in Edit to flatten one side and stretch the others into an appropriately sized square or rectangle. It doesn't have to be perfect the first time, so just keep playing with it until it looks correct to you.

Just remember, each upload requires L$10. |
