Husband and wife setup to stream drawing sessions to our in-world second life store. With my wife's busy school semester, we are hoping to do this at least once a month starting in 2025. #secondlife #digitalart #drawing #sketch maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/W...

It's a new year & a new policy is in effect for GEM ART store. We pulled the final bits of AI from our paid product line found in affiliate vendors. We no longer sell, for a L$ amount, any product that had utilized AI in any capacity. We look forward to working with new talent soon. #secondlife

As an preparator in Second Life as I was in RL, attention to detail is critical when hanging a show. The light level and angle must be just right. The simulated texture of the canvas is subtle but critical when working with 2k textures. See the up close comparison of canvas vs paper. #secondlife

This is just 1 out of 1000 hand-drawn anime artworks of Rawannie found on second life. We try to release in giant themed collections, but the prep time for adapting them to frames is a whopping 30-45 days on top of the drawing. 🤕

⚠️📢Starting 1/1/2025, we are pulling all ai art from our store that's selling for a $ amount, including affiliate vendors. We would like to expand upon our hand-drawn collections in spirit of supporting artists. Starting in 2025 we will host & promote non-ai anime artwork on consignment. STAY TUNE!

Second life ai integrations are a plus! But keep it under control. Some want it, others don't. You should have the freedom to opt out of all ai interactions. But others should be allowed to use it as a useful tool. Throwing an anti-ai tantrum is childish. #secondlife

I've been monkeying around with photographing bulk collections. Line em' up on a grid in front of a green screen, photo them one by one. #secondlife #sl

It's handy to know your visitor demographics so you can tailor your parcel events and languages. We use the Encogma Visitor Manager and our results for non-English speaking visitors is surprising. #SecondLife

Meet atom, our experimental ChatGPT chat bot. It's programmed to help people in our store and play Fusion. It can chat casually in local chat but it's a little glitchy so be nice. You can reach atom in local chat by starting a sentence with "@Atom". Find Atom in the second floor Fusion Welcome Hub.

I run all communication from my custom made console. Discord webhooks, subscriber feeds. + caspervend dropboxes, product packaging, book creation, parcel streams, teleport links, greeters, demographics tracker. I feel like the captain of a ship. 🚀 #secondlife
