    The Builds of Teen Second Life
    Something that I’ve avoided reporting on in this blog is the builds in TSL- for one, I am a rather highly recognized builder on the grid, and any critique or praise I give (in my opinion) could be either detrimental to a group or builder or give them too much hope- just because I like it doesn’t mean that they’re going to sell a lot of builds.

    Thankfully, someone else has taken over that for me, the fine folks of Demos’tados have started their blog here:.

    The Digital Sanctuary is coming along nicely- I liked the review of Kaira’s home, and it’s one of my personal fave builds on the grids. The describe it in enough detail that I can see what they’re talking about, however, I’d love to see pictures of these! The saying goes that a picture is worth a thousand words- when you’re talkin about architecture, that goes tenfold.

    Go on over and take a look, I think you’ll enjoy whether your a teen or an adult.
