SophiaSharon Larnia: Storm Nordwind designed and built most of the sim
ContreCourant Resident: Storm?
ContreCourant Resident: great name

ContreCourant Resident: Bieup?
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes, exactly

Santoshima Resident: hello storm
--BELL--
SophiaSharon Larnia: no topic Storm, rather quiet
ContreCourant Resident: Are you the person who filled this place with flowers Storm?
Storm Nordwind: Some of it, I guess :)
Storm Nordwind: People often bring their own too!
ContreCourant Resident: Bring their own flowers?
Storm Nordwind: Sure. They wear them. Or they plant them all around us for just one session here
Storm Nordwind: And the sim contains many flowers - i didn't plant them all, though all the ones you can see round here are probably from my trowel !
SophiaSharon Larnia: :)
Storm Nordwind: And if we tire of stone and matting, we can sit on daisy grass instead :)
ContreCourant Resident: You are a super gardener!
ContreCourant Resident: Daisy grass?
SophiaSharon Larnia: thanks Storm
Storm Nordwind: Like this!
ContreCourant Resident: Oh!
ContreCourant Resident: How did you do that?
Storm Nordwind: Some people here have magical powers ;-)
SophiaSharon Larnia: yes, some
SophiaSharon Larnia looks at Storm
ContreCourant Resident: I wonder where you keep your wand...
ContreCourant Resident: I have a lot to learn in the magic kingdom of SL
Storm Nordwind: If my magic brings a smile to other people, then I wave that wand :)
ContreCourant Resident: smiles
Storm Nordwind: But what I do, so can you too with just a little practice
ContreCourant Resident: I can't even make my camera work yet
Storm Nordwind: I would suggest that with your camera, you might throw away the popup controls and learn to use the keyboard and mouse
ContreCourant Resident: ?
ContreCourant Resident: Does that mean I have to be ambidextrous?
Storm Nordwind: It is so much faster and more fluid to do so.
Storm Nordwind: Not really, but those controls very quickly become intuitive.
Santoshima Resident: you seem very adept already
Storm Nordwind: So much so you'll be cursing your favorite browser for not allowing you to zoom in and look behind objects!
ContreCourant Resident: I suppose so if you practise regularly. I do?
Santoshima Resident: yes
ContreCourant Resident: yes?
SophiaSharon Larnia: Hi Ewan
Storm Nordwind: For example, and as a test, there is a slideshow over there, showing a picture of people sitting here...
Storm Nordwind: I will create a box behind it, and you can tell me what color it is :)
ContreCourant Resident: where?
Ewan Bonham: Hi Folks...:)
ContreCourant Resident: Hold on a moment. I have to figure out how to see it
SophiaSharon Larnia: nice to see you
Santoshima Resident: hello
ContreCourant Resident: hello
Storm Nordwind: Behind this screen :)
ContreCourant Resident: OK I see it now
ContreCourant Resident: behind??
Storm Nordwind: yes
ContreCourant Resident: How do I see behind?
Storm Nordwind: ah...
ContreCourant Resident: Do you have x-ray vision?
Storm Nordwind: Point your mouse pointer over the picture
ContreCourant Resident: oops it chaged pictue
SophiaSharon Larnia: no worries :)
ContreCourant Resident: to i point or touch?
Storm Nordwind: Hold down your Alt key and your pointer changes to a magnifying glass - kind of rectangular with a + in it
ContreCourant Resident: point
ContreCourant Resident: ok
SophiaSharon Larnia: that works in viewer 2? hmm
Storm Nordwind: Then Press and hold your left mouse button (with the alt still held) and slide your mouse forward
Storm Nordwind: It will zoom to the picture
SophiaSharon Larnia: Hi Paradise :)
--BELL--
ContreCourant Resident: wow
Paradise Tennant: hiya storm sophia contre ..bertrum santo ..ewan :))
ContreCourant Resident: Hello paradise
Storm Nordwind: Experiment with moving your mouse when you have alt and left click held. Then zoom right in, add the ctrl key to the set being held, and move your mouse to one side. Your camera will orbit the picture and you'll see behind it!

ContreCourant Resident: I keep heading out into the garden!
ContreCourant Resident: A real dog Paradise?
