The+Boardwalk+Experience

The Boardwalk is in the development stages and is designed to be a fun place for Avatars to stroll and enjoy waterfront amenities. Once fully completed, the experience is similar to visiting the boardwalks along the Oregon coast. The user will be able to fly kites, do some whale watching, view photos and art sculptures, design and display clothing for other Avatars to wear. A lighthouse at the end of the boardwalk will set the atmosphere for the site with the sounds of seagulls and/or possibly flying in a circular pattern as well as the sound of an occasional fog horn that will be heard. The lighthouse will also be used as the doorway (teleport) to the dancehall in the sky. Specific features of each build on the boardwalk. The sign at the entrance stating the Featured Artist('s) name could be changed to announce the current Avatar's artwork that is being displayed. Scripting allowing another Avatar to over-write the name posted on the sign will allow updates to this sign.  I hope you get an opportunity to visit the Boardwalk site and offer comments or suggestions regarding your visit. MsReality
 * The Boardwalk **
 * 1) The art studio is designed so that Avatars can display their creativity. The display areas are permanent fixtures to the building but the artwork can be removed to allow other Avatars to place their artwork either on the walls or on the display areas inside the building
 * 1) The Tropical Fish Store has a few empty tanks so that other Avatars can display aquatic animals they've created using sculpting with motion skills. A sign below the tanks will be similar to the Featured Artist sign at the front of the Art Building so the Avatar who is displaying their skills inside the tanks will be noted.
 * 2) The Whale Watching Building was designed as a place for Avatars to view the wonders of the gray whales off the Oregon Coast. An elevator with a teleport options on the first floor transports the Avatar to the second floor to view a video set up to look as if the Avatar is looking out into the ocean. Another teleport option in the upper elevator area will teleport the Avatar back to the main floor of the building.
 * 3) The Kite shop is designed around a Pirate theme. Avatars can choose a kite to take copy into their inventory that can be later rezzed and flown by them at other areas of the island.
 * 4) The clothing store will have permanent mannequins inside that will be able to wear clothing designed by Avatars and this clothing will be able to be copied into another Aviator’s inventory to be worn. The clothing designs will contain a notecard will display that when touched will display the designer’s name of the clothing displayed within of the clothing store.
 * 5) The Light house sets the overall atmosphere of an ocean-front boardwalk area with seagull and foghorn sounds. It is also the teleport site to the dance club in the sky.
