COLLABORATIVE PROJECT - OUR VIRTUAL LIBRARY DESIGN IN SECOND LIFE

T
This screenshot shows the only traditional library element we incorporated into our design, a set of 3 shelves which contain "books" that function as interactive elements providing links to each of our 3 sets of journals. The shelves also show examples of sculpties we created. 

Virtual Library interior showing "bookshelves", "staircase" and the scripted sculptures I created rotating. 

This screenshot shows the area of our virtual library with links to our 3 individual blogs. 

This image shows our 3 blog links plus a "horse head" scripted light I created. 

This image shows a sculptie, plus shows the 3 off-set/alpha channel textures we created in Photoshop and uploaded to second life. Donna created the straw bale wall, Sophie created the moss flooring and I created the lichen-covered stone wall texture.
