Building in Second Life

I have been asked many times, "Can you teach me to build"? Well, if I had the time I would teach everyone how to build, but we all know that is impossible. What I can do is tell you where I learned how to build. Not only is learning to make items in Sl fun, but it can save you Lindens and you can even earn lindens by selling your creations inworld or on xstreet!

At the end of this article I am going to give you the slurl to my very favorite place in second Life, the happy hippo Building club. for L$100 you can join the club and become a "Happy Hipster". Becoming a "Happy Hipster" comes with many perks. Free access to all Happy Hippo classes, this includes the do it yourself classes and the classes taught by their first class instructors. You can learn anything from basic building to advanced scripting, clothes making and anything in between.

Happy Hippo's group chat is the best, you can im anytime of day or night with a question and someone will usually have an answer for you. Everyone in the group is very friendly and eager to help. Hippo also has a board of volunteers (I am one) that you can im any time for assistance.

Sounds like a lot for L$100 doesn't it? Well that is not all! (I sound like a commercial but it really is a great group) Freebies-Freebies and yes, more freebies. If you need just about anything for a building project it is there; textures, sculpts, scripts, gadgets and more. Hippo also offers a large selection of items for sale and proceeds help keep the school running.

I can not say enough good things about the Happy Hippo Building Club. I have learned a lot there and I will continue to take classes, get the freebies and tip to help support the sim. If you want to join the Happy Hippo Club and are short on linden, send me a message and I will be happy to pay the L$100 so you can go. Yeah it's that good!
