Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Learn How to Build Things in Second Life.
If your into Building Things, Aimee Weber's "Creating Your World: The Official Guide to Advanced Content Creation for Second Life" would be a good choice. She and her co authors reaquaint you with the Editing box and have a breif introduction to Scripting. There are numerous tutorials and links to cool things others have done. The book comes with a free CD with the Tutorials and some extras but some of the contents match that of Second Life:The User's Guide.

I found the tutorials very easy to use and learn.




Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Better then the first
Got to admit this one is a whole lot better then the first. Pass on the very first and buy this one



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - A keeper
This is a very useful book for people who have gotten used to the basics of Second Life. It gives helpful information on a variety of areas. I have recommended it personally to a number of people and am about to buy a second copy for my office.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Finally, Second Life unveiled
Finally, a one stop book that tells me everything I need to know to improve and expand my experience with Second Life. While the Second Life tutorials online are okay this books clearly explains both the simple and complex options for customizability and expansion with excellent examples and sample code that is effective and clearly stated. If you are looking for the ideal reference for beginners and experienced users you can't get much better than this book.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent but not enough.
I got quite alot out of this book. There are a lot of resources that you wont find in world. Templates, textures, tutorials, and advice. All of it good. I just wish that there was a little bit more detail. It seems that no matter how much I learn from books, websites and in world I am always still behind the eight ball. So buy it YES for sure but be prepared to go right back to your search for more knowledge. Hopefully someone will write a tome on just the art of building and designing Structures someday soon.
