From Nydia Tungsten, filmed at the Happy Vixen beach club on June 2014, "Trying out some new software with this Video, so this was last min ... so not my best work I bet but I still hope you enjoy it. Thank you to the Dancers, Mina, Mato, Rita and a Sawyer clone, Bix and Umbra."

 

Bellisseria For Life

 

Bellisseria has it's own Relay event this week: Bellisseria For Life. And so Bixyl Shuftan, and his trusty alt Rezzdammit, went to check it out. There were a number of fun games, and a stage for music events.

The BelliHub

 

 

 There's a new place in Second Life aimed at helping both newcomers and those interested in living in the Bellisseria area: Bellihub. Patch Linden would announce it in the Linden Homes forums last week.

For months, we have been working behind the scenes to provide all of Bellisseria (and Second Life in general) a place where they can go to find information regarding Bellisseria, meet up with residents living in Bellisseria and have all of their questions answered. 

Today, we are pleased to release the BelliHub!

Dropping it, at first it looks like a newcomer orientation center, with explanations what Second Life is and how to go about. Going further, there's explanations on what Bellisseria is and how to get a Premium account and Linden Home. There's also an events center, where people can post notices about goings on. On the northern half of the island, Bellidemo, one can look at examples of Linden Homes, as well as click to see different styles of them

 

 

 There's also a hangout area. On opening day, the Lindens and moles had a party there, and I was invited over by a resident. But was busy and sent my alt Rezzdarnnit over. Someone used the "Rezzdammit!" gesture, so I sent Rezzdammit over as well. People, including Patch Linden himself, had a good laugh at seeing the "Rezz brothers." It was one of the examples of fun at the party.

My Alt and I: The Story of Rezzdammit Resident

Alts have a number of uses in Second Life. Griefers are well known to use them to hide their identities. Some use them to explore around undisturbed. Some roleplayers use one with a name close to that of their character. For yours truly, I hadn't bothered to create one for years. Then when it came time to write about a new place only newcomers could see, I had to start one in order to do the story. But once the purpose he was created for was finished, I'd still bring him on, and more then five years later he still drops in inworld time to time. So who is this alt and why is he still around?
