Many of our members have requested to add chat to SLProfiles (our voting ballots are also proof of this), so the last few weeks I've been working on a new chat program called SLP Avi Chat. I didn't want to launch ANOTHER regular chat program so I decided to build a chat program with a Second Life touch. It's perfect for when Second Life is down or for those that aren't able to get on Second Life at the time.

Before you start chatting, you need to select an avatar cutout or you can upload your own. You can start chatting in our general chat room or you can create your own room. A maximum of 10 avi's can chat in one room. The person who created the room automatically becomes the moderator of that room and has the ability to boot other users from that room. You can move your avatar around by clicking on it with your mouse and dragging it (while holding your left mouse button down). To send a private message, simply select the name of the person you want to write to before sending the message. When you click on the names within the chat box, the profile of that person will automatically be shown.

Alright - it's brand new so be patient when waiting on others to join. I've learned out of experienced that it always takes a few weeks to get chat room launched simply because people need to get used to it being there...

Have fun!
