Nova Albion Preservation Society

Hola folks,

A new group has been set up in-world and if you care about the state of the great city of Nova Albion, then please join "Nova Albion Preservation Society".

We've no charter yet - but we are open to all and aim to help retore NA to its former glory, preserve its history and help shape its future.

Follow the NA tweets here: www.twitter.com/novaalbion and search for the hashtah #NAPS

One idea we have been throwing around in the NAPS group is that of having plaques for buildings and areas of interest - in addition to just marking these areas out, they could be clicked to give a simple notecard with some further information.

Would the residents of the fair city be willing to nail a plaque up on their land or building? Let us know...

My builds are not historic by any means. But the Help center will be. Collie Lindman made that for me and I think he is a GREAT builder. I hope it will be historic one day. Of course the Civic Center or Marcos's Scraper may not be able to be topped.

3 Plaques here please!

....and I'm not just copying what Lisa said.
This is a nice idea, HBA and I'd like to put one up at each of my Sistiana locations. Thanks, ~Moss.

Hi all,

I've set up a Flickr group (http://www.flickr.com/groups/novaalbion/) that is open to all to join so please add any and all of your photos of the city, its people, its past and its quirks so we can all share in the city's amazing sights

you guys are doing a great job in Nova Albion. i have tons of pics i can look through and upload some to the flickr group

Enjah has been working like of of Santa's slaves and finished the NAPS building plaques (http://www.flickr.com/photos/headburroantfarm/3317492100/). They are 1 prim and, of course, free and they come with a notecard giving script so all you have to do is drop a notecard in with a little background about you, your building and your memories of Nova Albion and then people can click it to learn more about the wonderful city as they walk around it

For more details, join the Nova Albion Preservation Society group in-world!

I have been having problems trying to use the Map API to get an image of Nova Albion.

Miramare is http://map.secondlife.com/map-1-995-1002-objects.jpg
Grignano is http://map.secondlife.com/map-1-995-1001-objects.jpg
Barcola is http://map.secondlife.com/map-1-994-1002-objects.jpg
Sistiana is http://map.secondlife.com/map-1-994-1001-objects.jpg

In theory, Nova Albion should be:
http://map.secondlife.com/map-2-994-1001-objects.jpg

But it does not work. I've tried many combinations, but none yield the four Nova Albion sims together.

Does anyone know the correct URL for Nova Albion?

Moreover, I can't I find any reference table for the coordinates of SL sims. I got the above by trial and error based on the example for Ahern. In theory, there should be a grid system somewhere such that whatever sim you are in, you can read its SL coordinates (in the Region/Estate window, for example). Does anyone know where the coordinates for SL sims are published?

PS. I am a normal human being and not a computer geek, so anything related to scripting is hieroglyphics to me. Answers in English only, please

I am going around this weekend to all the builds here that have been here since NA was first found by Magellan. Some are newer than others like mine. What would consitute a Historic build here in NA, or SL for that matter. How long? Is there a time span that LL has directed?
