Post 6 Grrrl -- Dreams Lightcloud

[A while ago a friend of mine noted that my Post 6 people have generally longer been in world than those before and I had to admit that I choose 'older' avis on intention. Though I love the innocence of newbies stumbling around and marveling the beauty and sometimes weirdness of a new virtual world, it is those with a history in SL that I am really interested in. Those who have loved and lost, developed skills, networks and a clear idea of what direction their second life should take. And it quickly became clear that it was one of those who originally shaped this world that I want to feature as the last Post 6 for this year. Before I met Dreams Lightcloud I was excited what she might be like. Rezzed in 2004, she is one of those original content creators, one of those who actively participated in making SL what it is now. Would she be one of those snobbish older-than-the-prim-hills 'been there done that' residents? One of those who have lost their love for this world and just come back for their businesses? I was more than surprised when I met a woman who still walks around with big eyes, who – no matter how settled in her second life – hasn't lost the love for this platform, one who can still marvel the beauty of a well-crafted prim rose or an SL sunset. With the best wishes for a Happy New Year I proudly present Dreams Lightcloud. – Bunny Brickworks]

 

Who am I? I'm Dreams Lightcloud, nice to meet you! In SecondLife, you are likely to see my creative side. I enjoy DJing, writing, creating graphics and torturing prims in my SecondLife.

How did I get here?

I was invited to come to SL by several LL employees. The reason was that I was known as a popular clothing designer in another 3D virtual world. At that time, my computer could not run SL smoothly so I abandoned that account. In May 2004, I was asked to come to SL again. I came in one night for a *tour* and that time I fell in love.

The idea was that through my art I could help to make the game look better. It was a world beautification process that ended up bringing in many of the famous designers that SL has today. I lived and worked in several virtual worlds before coming to stay in SL.

Why did I stay? I stay because of the creative freedom that there is to be had in this world. The previous virtual world had a very restrictive process when it came to creating in world content with lots of red tape. I love the creativity and the bonds that we can form in our second lives.

 

And, I love music! The ability to share my music collection with others and to hear how happy that music makes them feel is the best part of DJing in SL to me. It is a unique gift that a DJ is able to receive throughout each performance. You can actually feel how happy your audience is! To me, SecondLife is a precious gift.

What do I do here? My love of art, literature and music are well suited to my lifestyle in SecondLife. When I'm not DJ'ing, you will mostly likely find me working on graphics for my bridal invitation store in Mimolette, Dreams Bridal.

I really enjoy making pretty invitations. The best part of it is when you deliver them to the customer and they open them for the first time. Usually, I'll get an IM back thanking me and then telling me how happy they are. And, to me, that's what their SLWedding should be all about. Making them feel special and happy!

Another thing that I like to do in SL is watch movies with friends. I really enjoy being able to watch a movie in SL with people from all around the globe. It's a shared experience that can't be replaced in many other venues online. It's sort of an amazing and unique feature to SL, in my opinion.

 

And, last but not least by any means, I have a wonderful family bond with my Crimson Shadow Family members. As the Crimson Shadow Family's Contessa, I spend lots of time organizing things for our roleplay community. In the process, many of us have formed bonds that will remain unbroken throughout our online lives. It's a wonderful warm feeling surrounded with lots of happy times.

To sum it up, I love my SecondLife. Granted the SL game engine could use a good overhaul and the economy is sometimes less than desirable. Yet, after all has been said and done, it is just such a wonderful opportunity to create and to meet like-minded people from all around the globe that I just can't seem to ever let it go!

[Micheal Steadham]

Well obviously the first comment was from a jilted lover. Such a shame as the comments are so untrue of our Pink Goddess. If you wanna hear the sexiest DJ in SL, she's your lady.

That and she's sexy in SL to boot.

A lot of memories with this girl and they all have been memorable. I remember when we met during our Sim Horror project for Bedazzle and became close friends since Gravity Space Station days in '04/'05. We've both been through a lot and yet she still remains one of the sexiest DJ's in SL. This small article doesn't tell as much detail for what she has done in SL but it gives you the general idea of whom she is. Always in pink and never anything else this chick is truly unique and a blast to be with no matter how big or small the crowd is. <3's you Dreamsie
