hello! i've been a lurker for several years now (because i wasn't confident enough to actually post..) but i really loved the excellent tutorials on the forum and on zero's youtube channel as well as the free programs and addons offered.
i finally decided i'd like to properly show my appreciation for the tools, knowledge, and downloads that people have generously shared here, and do my part to contribute what i can as well.
i've been using sl for several years, but i wouldn't say i'm an expert with anything. i do have some experience in using blender and photoshop to make sl clothing, so stuff like modeling meshes, rigging, texturing, and such. although i've been on an extended hiatus from sl so my knowledge is maybe a bit outdated haha
i don't understand scripting very well beyond slightly editing prewritten scripts, but i intend to learn.
i also have experience in english writing and transcription, and i've noticed how useful it is for people to have access to good instructions when copybotting.
or to put it another way, i've noticed how many repeat questions the creators of tools and tutorials tend to get bombarded with... :')
so i'm interested in archiving the existing information and tutorials that have been spread around on various sites, youtube videos, etc, and transcribing and editing them to make them easier to understand.
for example i think if someone uses machine translators to read things in their own language, it can help a lot if the original text is really clear and straightfoward. also in my opinion it would be nice to have backups just in case sites go down or youtube vids are deleted...
but it's just an idea i had for one way i might be able to help out ^_^ i'm not sure what the demand for that would be like? i'd like to see what people think...
anyway that's it! sorry for the little wall of text hehe. thanks if you read this all :)
