I was looking to download a preview version of SL. I have some new clothing and scripts I would like to test without spending lots of L$ but the "Windows 2000/XP installer not found!" on http://secondlife.com/community/preview.php. anyone know where an older preview version is?

That's not the purpose of the preview grid. :/

Last I heard, there's no public preview grid online at the moment because there's nothing in the pipeline to share.

You can't just download a preview version any time you like. The preview version connects to a completely different grid, which is only available when a new version is ready for public beta testing. Since there isn't one at the moment, there's no preview installer either.

In that case... is there an application available or in the works, that you could test clothing on without uploading them?

Click file > upload image > select your image and ok

In the preview of the image there is a dropdown of various body shapes, select the one you want then you can left click and hold to zoom in and out and move round the shape.
