New 1920's Le Grenier Shop in Paris
Business Announcements
Very nice, Trasgo! Love the vendors.
Congratulations on your new shop locations. Everything looks grand!!
I love this exhibit!
Too much fun piecing together the back-story of these characters. Also the contrast between the two was most intriguing. I've suggested to Sere that they subtitle it "From Diderot to Deadwood" 
Thanks for the kind words, Jacon.
I think many of us fell into our roles here in SL and are continually juggling them 
Seems that you & I ponder many of the same things, Jacon
I have a lot of thoughts but will try to keep it short.
Overall I remain optimistic regarding the future of SL. I'm interested to see what SL2 will bring and keep reminding myself that the ability to adapt is essential for any business. To be clear, I believe that good business practices are relevant whether we're speaking of creators, merchants, landowners and/or the community at large.
This site exists because, like you,I believe that our niche community is much better off working together and it helps facilitatecollaboration by acting as a central location for information.
As can be expected with any group, the success of our collaboration has varied over time and I expect it willcontinue to do so. It's heartening to think that those endeavours that have survived the test of time have perhapsdone so because the people involved were honest, professional and interested in the well-being of the community at large. I think that if we all keep that in mind, it will go a long way towards what you want to accomplish.
Speaking of the community; merchants/landowners have a responsibility to provide goods & services that their clients desire. On the flip side, it's worth gently reminding community members that thehistorical environments they enjoy can use all the support they can get. Renting land, buying goods andlending a hand to organize events keep us all in business. Fortunately, there are supporters who do just that and I can't thank them enough.
Content theft is a subject that deserves a topic all its own so I'll leave if for now.
That seems like enough words for a start
Looking forward to hearing from others!
Just love those easels!A wonderful exhibit all the way around

Glad you liked it!
The "good" thing about dealing with toxic people in SL is that it's probably easier to get away from them than it can be in RL. Having toxic people in your RL workplace, for example, really poses challenges. Too bad there's not a RL mute button 
Yes, that caught my eye also. As with you, it took me a long time to learn.
