Explicit permission is obtained for 99.9% of avatars captured on screen here. There are about 3 or so images I have not due to the spontaneous and elusive nature of getting good shots, and is used under a fair use↗ premise.
Please write to me if you wish your avatar or creation removed. I can also just whiteout the name if you wish.
Also, note that the avatar appearance in the game takes some skills and creativity to design, and the result, variously called “outfit/costume/avatar suit” are often sold. Avatars on this page do not imply that the owner designed them. However, some of avatars in the screenshots, are indeed designed by their owners. In this case, i try to make note of this fact. If you are the creator of the avatar you are wearing, please let me know.
Regarding (real life) the law or conventional practice about publishing screenshots in a video game, here is a interesting case: Reuters, Adam (January 5, 2007). Anshe Chung Studios cracks down on griefing photos. Accessed on 2007-01-06.↗
You might find some of the descriptions funny. Funny here means both humorous and eccentric. They are not in anyway personal. However, if you do not like a particular remark i made about your avatar (or land, shop...), please let me know and i'll remove it promptly.
If you have seen most images captured here, and knew something that i might be interested in get a screenshot, please write to me. Am currently looking for:
In general, i'd like to capture beautiful things, and aspects of life in real life in Second Life.
I'm Xah Toll in Second Life, and you can also email me at xah@xahlee.org. I run a business in Second Life, called Xah's Edu Corner.
I'm a Asian male in Real Life. You can read my bio and interest and photo at Xah Lee Short Profile. The avatar i use in Second Life is often a blonde female. I think of her as a grown up Alice of Alice In Wonderland. Sometimes i'm also a white arctic fox. One day i may create a avatar that represent my real life male. Yes, i want to, but one day.
Am available for hire. $50USD/hour.
