For me, SL has always been about creativeness. I know that a lot of people don’t feel I should be part of Second Life anymore since I don’t pay for a premium account. I’m not ready to give it up just yet so I figured one way to be accepted is to stop making any money from it.
For that reason, I’ve decided to stop selling my products and give some back to the community. Once a week I’ll post one of my products here at the blog. I’ll not set a price for it and everyone that wants it can contact me in worlds and I’ll send it to them for free or for the price they feel is appropriate or can afford. One way of “paying” for it could be, and would be much appreciated, by sending me a snapshot of the product in use or just a few words about what they will use it for or have used it for.
My main goal is to give away my products but hopefully find out what people think about my products. I’m hoping they like what I do. Money has never been the important part.
Now maybe you wonder why I won’t just put my products in freebie boxes. One reason is that those freebies just get invisible among other freebies. Xstreet is filled with them already. I don’t have a place in worlds to put any freebies so this seemed to be the only way. Besides, this isn’t freebies it’s ‘Appreciation Wares‘. They aren’t free, they come with a price. Only if you like my products, you can have them;). And I won’t make them full rights so they aren’t for resell.
If you have any suggestions about ‘Appreciation Wares’. I’m hoping to hear about them. Should I do this? What should I think about? Any other ways of doing this? Suggestions please!:)
