Kee launched a new initiative......... 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" told Kee

Kee invited all of you to jump in SL, look for windmills, take photos and share them (and also the slurls) on Koinup

Go around, pose your eyes on every sl windmill and come back here...

post the windmill photo, add the tag: windmillproject

and check it out the pool here:

You know, I love to share landmarks and locations......and....uhm...

because of that me and Edo (the tech-side of koinup)
we have launched the PLACES SECTIONS

So here's is my first editorial suggestion for new awesome SL places to visit:
koinup.com/sim/Orkney/
koinup.com/sim/akashic/
koinup.com/sim/Tompson/

Have a look there or browse others sims here:
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!

Hello my friends. I'd like to draw your attention to a great place which can be seen in this photo koinup.com/Trixibelle/work/61172/. Full details are there but basically it is a gallery and photographic educational centre and more created by the hugely talented Kali Meads who is too damn modest to give herself a plug. As I am a gobby cow and think she is a cause worth shouting about I want as many people as possible to see it *grins. Please go visit and take a good look around, there is lots to see. xxxx

Thank you all xxxx

Greetings from the South of France (I am so dead meat if I am found at the PC lol but I couldn't resist). I hope you are all being good (although I can see from MightyP's photos that she and Angel aren't for sure *grins* - and I can clearly see that Mr Asbrink has enjoyed them a little too much hehehe). I'm missing you all loads and looking forward to going on Koinup Safari when I get back ;-)))))) The car broke so I'm here a bit longer than anticipated but I'll be back, annoying the hell out of you all again before you know it.

Take care my chums. Kisses xxxx

dear friends, I wanna direct your attentions to some excellent photoshop tutorials created by our common friend Ji_Dallagio

I think you should have a look at them, because most probably they will help you a lot

First Tutorial: Working on Layers
koinup.com/Ji_Dallagio/work/55124/as-list/

Second Tutorial: Blending and changing colors
koinup.com/Ji_Dallagio/work/55340/as-list/

Third Tutorial: Extract Images from their currect backgrounds
koinup.com/Ji_Dallagio/work/55480/as-list/

Thanks Ji!
These tutorials are not about Second Life or some other worlds, but are about Photoshop and Postprocessing, so I think that most of you can be really interested!

I invite other members to share their tecniques and create tutorials using the storyboard tool! I'll give to each tutorial the maximum of visibility in order to help the whole community! Enjoy Koinup!

Hi, there's alot going on at the moment with the pileups and other projects and its all extremely valuable work BUT....I really urge mentors to keep checking the works for review. And when you check them please do review them...give a critique if you can....that's the reason they have put them there, the submitters are asking for advice. (yes i know nag nag nag ;-))))

Many thanks chums xxxx

Just so everyone knows...anyone can take part in any of the projects currently running, the mentors scheme, the pileup work or any of the other projects going on at the moment. All these ideas are transferable to other worlds too not just secondlife. Don't wait to be asked (no-one else has lol)....JOIN IN!! ;-) If you have any other ideas, share them with us..its all part of the learning process.
