That's right, it's with great regret that I have to scale down my SecondLife land greatly, and as such, Atelier des Reves, home of fashions by me is now closing down.

I can't say when it will be gone, but soon for sure.

Find Atelier des Reves (home of many many female and male fashions, and artwork by myself) in it's first and final resting place, Mocha (20, 220)

Maybe it will return one day, but for now, thanks for all the business!

Additionally, the Phobos Project 1$ store is also closing down. I will bring it back up in another location soon, it's been a great pleasure to provide that resource for the newcomers of Second Life.

I'll announce the new location as soon as possible. Thank you.

Sorry to see it go :( I haven't gone to Atelier that much, but I do remember being so happy when I found the Phobos Project! Thanks so much for that. I can't wait to see it in its new location :)

I didn't say I was leaving SL, just tiering down.

And this has nothign to do with recent economical changes either, this is a personal RL issue.

There is medication available to treat people like you, maybe you should look into it. It would not cure your unbelieveable rudeness but it might cut down on some of the manic posts. :mad:

Sorry to see you scale back. I hope RL straightens itself out for you.

With the recently announced monetary changes, a 1$ store is even more needed, so I am eager to see that back up soon.

I'm sure no one is interested in turning this thread into a "Shut up Alby" thing. Damien Fate has done a lot for the SL community and it's really kind of sad for me to see these stores that have been there since I started close down.

Congratulations, Alby, you've just become the first person I've ever muted in my life. *puts headphones on*

Thats cool... You'll never see what everybody else is talking about, thus you'll be outta the loop, thus you'll never respond again.. Ahhh, I've gotten rid of Lo..

Glad you're not leaving Damien! If you need some space to setup a vendor for your stuff, contact me IW. I can probably get you some room at Cyrus Designs major stores.

Sorry you are having to scale back Damien, :( but I know RL can be a kicker. Even when it is for good stuff. hehe :p I'll look forward to the re-opening of the Phobos Project! I'll be sure to update the landmark to the new location to give out to others! *HUGS* :)

Damien,

I'm sure you've been told countless times what a remarkable demonstration you and your group have given in the realm of virtual identities, but I'm willing to chime in one more time.

I hope things go well for you, whatever's going on. And I will miss your store; it was one of my favorite places in the game, even more so than the Avalon outlets.

BTW, I hope you and your RW organization have a huge portfolio of snapshots and a reasonably coherent chronology of your time here. I think that, if and when the Virtual Worlds concept gains a little more critical mass, there's definitely a textbook to be had what you've done.

But I suspect you knew that :)

The Phobos Dollar Store is still there. I purchased the land as part of the Living Cities group, but it will continue until further notice.

Sorry to hear you're scaling down :(

I think Atelier des Reves is one of the most interesting shops in all SL. I'll have to add it to my list of "Things I should have visited more often that have went away".

I've always considered you one of SL's pioneers. I hope you'll have a chance to continue to influence SL history and culture with your work. In the meantime, I hope RL things work out well for you.


Take care,




~Olympia

Aw. Atelier des Reves has been around since before I have, and it's by far the prettiest shop in SL. Sad to see it (and Damien) go away.

Hey D,

You do good stuff. Sometimes a temporary break in SL is just what a person needs. Best of luck to you!

Damien,

Sorry to hear that you are scaling down, and that Atelier des Reves will be going. Still, I am glad that you are not leaving altogether, and I hope that in the future you will continue to do great things in sl.
