A little nPose love ...

It's nice to have a fan ..

"... I used to put very very simple LSL sit scripts on benches and chairs that I'd made because well 2 reasons a) Simple sits are easy to make, b) I HATE POSEBALLS.  And I'm not the only one, I always thought the MLP stuff would be better without poseballs I always thought that poseballs were passé, even when I started in Second Life, more than 5 years ago.

So I used sit scripts and I bought some of the pose scripts from marketplace but nothing ever had what I wanted in it...until I stumbled across nPose.  nPose is..."an LSL script for use in Second Life® that allows one or more avatars to sit on (and otherwise control) objects and rez props, without poseballs."  nPose is...GREAT."

nPose Celebrates SL9B with a Build-off

We didn't quite make it into the main event, but we ARE celebrating with the opening of a new nPose Community and Learning Center. A place to hang out, learn from other builders and ... oh, yes .. get into our little building competition!! We thought, "What better way to celebrate the uniqueness of SL and its creators - the community - by doing what we do best? ... BUILD!!...

===BUILD-OFF Contest===

- Sponsored by the nPose Community, in celebration with the SL9B -

As many entries as we can fit on the sim will be used (land is being donated for a week) in the park. If we have more submissions than the sim can handle, we'll put the submissions into holodeck rezzers for the reviews.
