My Low Prim Mansion Note
in this picture, that you can see that the insides of the
mansion are not brick. The front view is made completely
transparent (inside looking out) using a transparency texture.
The side walls can be a combination of long windows with some
transparency and some pictures of lamps and wall sockets to add
some realism without adding prims.
Furniture
Fortunately us avatars do not need something soft to sit on!
Actually, it just must be the right height. So then, why not
cannot a four seater couch just become a single prim object.
Then we can add a .jpg picture that makes it look more like a
couch and add color. Things like tables take more thought.
However, the table I made was a pink granite bowl type prim
holding a glass top. The table is just two prims. |

Furniture Another view of
the furniture. The only furnture I did not make is the fireplace
in front. While it is cute, it uses 5 prims! It is
my next job to determine how to get something better for less.
Paintings
If you are handy about photo pixels and .jpg creation, you
can make your own paintings and upload them as .jpg. In
this case, I did the work of all three paintings on my computer
and made them part of a whole wall - with a blank wall for the
second floor so I could use the blank wall for a photo studio
for my clothing modeling photo shots. Does this make
sense? Imagine a giant square single composite picture that is
totally square - that has a blank surface on the top half, and
three photos next to each other on the lower half. When
loading, this is seen as one image by Second Life. That is
good. Since it is going on one large 10 meter x 10 meter
wall. I my case, I had some fun, having a Mona Lisa on my wall,
followed by a picture of me and and a er uh former US president
followed by a photo of me and Paris Hilton. Yes, yes, I
admit I doctored some of these paintings. But why not have
some fun?
