I am also new here in the 2nd world, just like everybody seems to be overhere!!!
I read you can earn some money in the 2nd world by making something, like jewelry, clothes et. and sell it.
But, how do you make something like this; I cannot find it. I can only find how to BUILD things...........
Can anyone help me out????

Can anyone help me out???? Open your Search screen, Open the "Places Tab" In the search Field, Type in "The Shelter", then hit the search button. At the shelter you will find all the instructional resources you need including Building Classes so you can Make something. Once you create something, Selling it is as Easy as Checking the "For Sale" Box on it, and setting a Price. You can sell One, or Multiple Copies as you desire. You will also fine Free vending Machines that you can stock with your Product. Rent a small shop in a Mall, Place the Vendor, and people will Buy from that. Go to the Shelter, ALL the info (and many Freebies too) you need is there. Angel.

There's a ton of information on how to make things for SL in the content creation forums. There's a forum for animation, building, design and textures, movies and machinima, and scripting. Some of these forums have stickies with info well worth checking out. For scripting you should try the new Linden operated LSL wiki inside http://wiki.secondlife.com , and another one at at http://rpgstats.com/wiki .

Well then ron you have some work to do. Thats how you make money. Research, you've made a start but asking how to do it is not the answer. Reading about other's experiences is where you get the info you require. Browse and search these pages and you will find a plethora of the information you seek.
I just uploaded 64 textures I created in the Gimp. It took me 10 hours to make them. Another two or so to sort. Another hour to upload. Another hour to set permissions. Another hour to get them into a vendor. Now they are nearly ready to test. Hopefully some people will like them enough to buy them and I will make L's. I will probably sell them for about US$2. To make RL money back I have to sell (15 hours @ $10 per/Hr =$150) 75 sets to break even.(Roughly Folks)!
So if you make effort it may or may not pay off. Good luck.
