In addition to the regular blog roll and video tutorials, I have some other sites I need to share too! The following is a list of links to various tips and tricks on building, designing, and scripting in SL.
*****
The very first page to look at is the mighty and all-powerful Second Life wiki. Almost every single question you may ever have can probably be answered there!
I also highly suggest checking out the Viewer Roadmap while you’re there. It contains excellent information about hopes and goals for the future of SL.
*****
In addition to the Second Life wiki, the Second Life forums are a great way to find information as well. The forums are full of great questions and answers from residents.

I am a big fan of scripting and I am always wiping my paws all over any scripting resource I find. Here are some great ones I’ve found:
Second Life Forum Scripting Library

Next up in our list of helpful links we have the clothing tutorials. These are probably my 2nd favourite because I love to have the freedom to create my own designs.
