That is the sum total of it, I know how to make a private sky box and it only needs two little scripts. Now do I sell the idea to Linden Labs to try land a job with them or do I find a good scripter to make is solid and sell them privately?

What do the scripts accomplish?

I didn't know that they'd implemented llDisableCamming().

Let's see, one script to make the skybox randomly move up and down in thousand meter steps, and one to lock your camera to a prim in the skybox.

Drat! And I'd planned on milking this job for *months*!

don't forget the script that keeps the outside user from locking on to the skybox =)

gotta love disable camera restraints

although I could make a guaranteed private skybox in SL, without a single script.....

I am curious what Jenshae means when she says "private" though...

you can contact me inworld if you like, I won't even charge for my services... after all distraction is a good thing for me right now.

Linden Lab does not hire many content creators other than Moles. See http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LDPW#How_to_Apply for details, and bear in mind that they do not hire many, and they're pretty picky about the skills of same. Not to downplay your skills, but I've seen a great many excellent builders and scriptors get turned down for Mole work.

Going the private route may be your best bet. Bear in mind that you'll have no shortage of competition in skybox building. :)
