New look of Van Byk (Vanessa) in Second Life

i made myself "cooler"

Task Three: Second Life Scavenger Hunt of Draft Pick (Brian)

My avatar's name is "Draft Pick". It was my original idea to make myself look as close to myself as possible. It quickly turned into a joke, and instead I created a hair metal rocker in a knight's shirt, wielding a "pop gun". My screen shot show's my avatar's prettiness. It seems like this is almost a joke. My first impression is that flying pretty awesome, but this is a video game to me, not a way to meet people. The biggest struggle for me was trying to complete the tutorials. They weren't very intuitive to me...oddly enough.

Task Three: Second Life Scavenger Hunt of Van Byk (Vanessa)

The name of my avatar in SL is Van Byk. I decided to change the color of her hair, and her shirt to differentiate her from the other avatars. I did change her body style but it looked really unrealistic and weird, so I changed it back. My first impression of SL is a little strange. I'm not used to playing games on the internet, especially ones where I am involved in a virtual world. It definately took some getting used to. I had a few challenges, such as, getting used to learning the simple tasks like changing your appearance and teleporting out of orientation island. I tried talking to others around me but they seemed to not know anything either. I was fending for myself. I eventually got the hang of the basics, but I'm still getting used to flying around and being able to interact with almost anything on my screen.
