Hey guys, I'm a model in SL and want to make my own poses for use on a catwalk. I've never made an animation but I've been told its not too hard and I think it would be best if all my animations are customer. I'm just looking for a little help. Mainly, whats the best program to use and how do I get the file from, say Blender, uploaded to SL?

Thanks for any help :)

And don't forget, use the beta grid for testing your poses, uploads there are free.

Oh wow! Thats awesome! Can the free uploads be transfered to the main grid? I would assume not.

No, but once you've tweaked and tested it 1000 times you can log onto the main grid and upload the final, correct version, saving you the L$9990 the tests would have cost you :)
