Tiny Universe Convention
May 25, 2008 2:21 pm
Rezzable and Greenies released two ‘tiny greenies’ avatars and landed at Tiny Kingdom. Side effects for Vint? Google Translate English - Japanese and Japanese - English are now added to the ‘browser thingies that need to be open for Vint to function’. ;) That and I’m slowly getting addicted to the ‘Turning Japanese’ song from the Vapors.
But what a nice world has opened itself for me: the Tiny sims are full of lovely, humorous and amazingly cute details! A few examples? Do you remember those snow balls from when we were young? Glass balls, filled with snow and a tiny scene, which you put next to you bed. I dare to bet almost all of us owned at least one. And I also dare to bet almost all of us wished they could ‘disappear’ into the snowball’s scenery at least once. Suddenly, become a part of that little tiny world. At the Tiny Universe Convention, find Cue Fride’s ’snow balls’ which are tiny little scenes you can sit your tiny avatar in: read a book, go to the toilet, get eaten by a shark, … . Just utterly lovely! More photographs of these tiny snow ball scenes you can find in my ‘Tiny Universe Convention’ Flickr set.
Another great example is Miyaoka Hitchcock’s latest release: the cutest fan you can imagine. And it’s an actual avatar! Very strange seeing that around. If it were not for the avatar tag, you would think it’s part of the scenery, and then suddenly it starts walking. Astonishing, that one is. Behold the ‘tiny electric fan avatar’:
And then there is the way of presenting all the avatars taking part in the convention: a long tunnel you walk through, and they are all lined up as little toy soldiers with their creator tags… there is the beautiful logo that’s build in prims… ah well, just go and take a look for yourself: Tiny Universe Exhibition - Dust - 97, 146, 90 (May 25th to June 1st)

Thanks for posting this! The Tiny Universe Convention is the sexiest place I ever saw!
Gotta go!!!!! I have to drag Skycat there too ^_____^
The build in Dust is fabulous. On the recommendation of a friend I popped in for a quick visit and wound up spending the good part of the day there. And I couldn’t help but buy some of the avatars. Really clever stuff. Attention Those Who Plan to Visit: be sure to get the tiny avie creation kit FREE at the end of the “tour.” Well, after you walk on the moon, of course.
Tiny Kingdom rocks, too. Vint was very clever in getting various Greenies to cooperate to pose around the sim :)
I’ve just visited the Dust sim and there’s nothing there!
Is is the wrong SLURL or has it gone?
Hmmm. It works for me? I made it an secondlife:// link. When I have SL open and click it, I get the correct Landmark and offer to TP. Strange.
Ahhh - found it - I’d be putting in SLURLS by hand and got it wrong. There’s some nice stuff there even though I crashed out twice while there.
