secondnightproject

All the entries will be visible here!

 Well, the Windmill Project is going along nicely we're up to three pages of windmill pictures. Thanks to everyone for participating and let's hope the pile continues to grow.

And now I'd like to suggest a new in-wold pileup: The Second Night Project.

I've noticed I tend to take a lot of pictures at night, and night is one of my favourite times. So I'd like to see us gather together all the best night time pictures in one place: Moonlight and stars, dark urban streets, creepy graveyards, back country roads awash in tints of blue and grey...

If you'd like to participate, please add the tag: secondnightproject  to your appropriate works.

Just for fun.

The Windmill Project

I've noticed that Second Life has a lot of nice windmills. And since I like windmills, I've started shooting them (well THAT doesn't sound nice!). Anyway, I'd like to suggest that the rest of us do so too: A sort of non-pileup pileup. When you take a nice shot of a windmill, please attach the tag "Windmill Project." Just for fun. :-)

http://www.koinup.com/sim/Tompson/

Have a look there or browse others sims here:
http://www.koinup.com/sims/in-second-life/

and then share postcards / or... btw....try to discover new place and be the first to share the slurls on Koinup

Discoverers will be featured on the "place front pag"e and have a lot of visibility!
