An SL Christmas, 2004.
Last night I took a long flight over the south and east of SL. I took snapshots of all the home Christmas displays I could find. There are 67 shots of nearly 60 houses.
An 7.5mb movie montage of all the pics, complete with special holiday music. (right click - save as)
All individual snapshots identifying the sim and the homeowner.
If I missed your house, it was because I either couldn't see it due to the snow or you had your red 'no entry' lines up.
It was a lot of fun to do this and I ran into some very nice people along the way.
Merry Christmas!

Very nice pictures indeed
 Can't get the video to work though  Says I don't have the correct codec. I am using WMP 9.Happy Holidays to You and Yours!! _____________________

Bradder, I will check your place out. I just got tired after the first three hours!
Thanks, Govindira. Echo, I think it needs WMP 10, but I will check which codec it uses and post an update. _____________________

Sorry for the necropost, but I thought that with all the new land and residents we've added since last year, this might be of interest.
Is anyone planning on doing something like this for this year? This was made using snapshots taken in SL using the save to disk option, then putting them in Microsoft Photo Story (which is free.) _____________________

What a lovely gift to give us all! I can't help but smile when I see the creativity -- even the smallest sweet touches -- of my fellow Second Lifers. Thank you for compiling this beautiful tribute to the world we are all busy creating.
Bravo, brave, well done! Merry Christmas to you! |
