Now, that you got your Second Life account and figured out how you can make free linden dollars in Second Life, I think it’s time for us to go on to an upper level of earning lindens. And that, my friends is building your own stuff. Remember my first post about building when I showed you my clock work? It didn’t take too long for me to do it but surely I didn’t start with that one.

If you add to whatever you build some code, that will be fantastic and you know what’s better? It will increase its value too. For example a clock shows SL time, or even your own time at home, of course you can add to that some kind of menu. And after that, you just sell it. So let’s see, hmm, the costs are pretty low toward nothing. Of course it will cost you your own time but if you do it in a fun way, you won’t even notice that.

As I said, everything starts with the beginning. So for you building beginners here’s a very useful place to be in Second Life. It’s called The Ivory Tower of Primitives and it shows you how to build things. This resource is taken from Torley Linden who gives us different tips every week. Don’t discourage yourself; just keep building it will look better as you progress.

Hey guys. I just went on a limb today and built a clock. It’s an old granpa’ clock with textures made in Paint Shop Pro. The clock shows Second Life time, as you can see from the photo it was around 2 o’clock in-world at the time it was taken. It’s also the day when a new brand starts it’s second life. The brand is “Uni-Q” and it will be applyed to clocks for example. Just hoping that my builder/coder skills will improve over time.

Still the idea of the clock I took it over a website, slBuilding.com which I think it’s very useful for beginners in building Second Life stuff. Of course there are just the guidelines, the rest of it depends on your own imagination and skills.

I would like you to state your oppinion about my granpa’ clock. Maybe even give me a price I could get for it in 2nd life.

Happy lindening!
