+</HEAD>
+<BODY>
+<br>
+Get a new perspective on your Second Life.
+<P>
+Because Second Life is 3-D, you have total and infinite control over where you place the camera (your eyes). 
+<P>
+Camera control is a little tricky to get the hang of, but once you do, you'll really enjoy it.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">1. Hold down the ALT key to activate Focus mode.</font>
+<P>
+The cursor changes to a magnifying glass.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">3. With ALT held down, click and release on various spots on the landscape.</font>
+<P>
+Notice that the view re-centers on the place where you clicked.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">4. Click on your avatar and drag the mouse SLOWLY around.</font>
+<P>
+As you move the mouse forward and backward and side to side, the view zooms in and out and around your avatar.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">5. Now hold down the ATL and CTRL keys at the same time.</font>
+<p>
+The cursor changes again to indicate Orbit mode.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">6. With both ALT and CTRL held down, click and drag SLOWLY on the avatar again.</font>
+<P>
+Now, as you move the mouse, the view stays approximately the same distance from your avatar, but the camera orbits around it in all directions.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">7. Now hold down ALT, CTRL, and Shift at the same time.</font>
+<P>
+The cursor changes to indicate Pan mode.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">8. Click and drag SLOWLY on the avatar again.</font>
+<P>
+Now, as you move the mouse, the camera slides across the landscape. It looks like you're dragging the ground around.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">9. Hit the Esc key to return to normal view.</font>
+<P>
+You'll also find a Camera Control panel under the View menu at the top of the screen.
+<p>
+Mastering camera control will take some practice. One you have a feel for it, it's not only fun, but very useful when you start to build things and need to see them from all angles.

+Time to learn how to chat.
+<P>
+The first step is to find someone to chat with.  Use the Mini Map or World Map to locate other Second Life Residents.
+<P>
+Once you've located someone to chat with, get only as close to then as you would to chat in real life. 
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">1. Press the Enter (or Return) key, type a message, then hit Enter (Return) again to say your message.</font><P>
+Everyone within a certain range will hear you.
+<P>

+Turn yourself into a work of art.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">1. Open the Edit menu and select <font color="#B00000">Appearance...</font>.</font>
+<P>
+You'll see a large dialog box and a close-up of your avatar's face.
+<P>
+Along the left side of the dialog are a number of tabs that divide up the job into various body parts or articles of clothing.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">2. Click on the <font color="#B00000">Shape tab</font> on the left.</font>
+<P>
+You're now ready to change your avatar's shape.
+<P>
+Within the Shape tab are a number of other choices: Face, Torso, Legs and Body. Plus, you can change your avatar's gender with a single click. 
+<p>
+<font color="#000080">3. If your avatar is male, click on female. If it's female, click on male.</font>
+<P>
+Your avatar will instantly change from one gender to another. The clothing will stay the same, but there will be a number of easy-to-notice changes. Go back and forth, then pick whichever one you want for now.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">4. Click on the <font color="#B00000">Face</font> button.</font>
+<P>
+Now it's time to play.
+<P>
+Take your time and go through all the face sliders. Don't be afraid to giggle; you can't hurt your avatar's feelings.
+<P>
+Use the left- and right-arrow keys to rotate your avatar and see it from all sides as you play.
+<P>
+When you've finished with the face:
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">5. Click on the <font color="#B00000">Torso</font> button, and play with the sliders.</font>
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">6. Click on the <font color="#B00000">Legs</font> button, and play with the sliders.</font>
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">7. Click on the <font color="#B00000">Body</font> button, and play with the sliders.</font>
+<P>
+Once you've played with the adjustments for a while and want to keep what you've got:
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">8. Click on <font color="#B00000">Save As...</font>.</font>
+<P>
+A dialog box will open asking you to choose a name for your new shape. It will appear in your Clothing folder of your Inventory.
+<p>
+You can create as many shapes as you want, and instantly change between them just by double-clicking on their name in the Inventory box.
+<P>
+So far, you've only played with the Shape tab. There's a lot more you can do to your avatar on the Skin, Hair and Eyes Tabs -- and even more with the clothing tabs.
+<P>
+If you want, stay and play. Try the other tabs and see what you can come up with.
+<p>
+When you're ready to move on, click Next below.

+        <TITLE>The Second Life Economy</TITLE>
+</HEAD>
+<BODY>
+<br>
+Second Life features a vibrant inworld economy that's a lot different than many other online worlds.
+<P>
+Every week, you'll receive a weekly stipend of ingame currency, or L$.  This amount is determined by your membership (Basic or Premium) as well as a bonus amount based on your inworld reputation (as rated by other residents).
+<P>
+There are many ways to make money in Second Life; generally, if it works (and is legal) in the real world, it may be possible in Second Life.  You can create objects, clothing, etc. and sell them.  If you own land, you can create any number of businesses--dance club, arcade, coffee house, chicken ranch, space station, roller coaster, etc.--and earn rewards for the time other people spend at your build.  You can even charge admission.  If you're skilled, other residents may hire you to help them with their own builds, businesses, and creations.
+<P>
+If you prefer not to work, or need more cash fast, you can even purchase L$ with USD$ dollars.  On the other hand, if you're rolling in the L$ dough, you can sell L$ and make real-world cash!  (See <a href="http://secondlife.com/help">http://secondlife.com/help</a> for more information.)

+        <TITLE>Instant Messaging</TITLE>
+</HEAD>
+<BODY>
+<br>
+Read on to learn how to use Instant Messaging.
+<P>
+Instant Messaging is private, and only the Residents you send an Instant Message to can hear it. 
+<P>
+Let's take a look at the Instant Messaging box.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">1. Click on the IM button in the lower-left corner of the screen.</font>
+<P>
+The New Instant Messaging box opens.
+<P>
+Until you meet some people and add them to your Friends list, there won't be anyone listed for Instant Messaging.  Instead, you can find someone to IM using the Find menu or Right-Clicking another Resident near you and selecting "Send IM".
+<P>
+Let's send an IM to someone to see how IM works.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">2. Select a name in the New IM menu (if you've collected any calling cards) or use the Find menu to locate another Resident and select "Send IM".</font>
+<P>
+The IM box changes. The title now says Instant Message with the Resident you selected.
+<P>
+Also, now there are two tabs a the bottom of the box, one to return to New IM (your list of people you can IM), plus one where you're now ready to carry on an IM conversation.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">3. Type in an appropriate message and press Enter (Return).</font>
+<P>
+Your message will be sent.
+<P>
+IM is a great way to leave messages for others even when they're not in-world. And once you have a number of Friends, you can carry on multiple IM conversations at once.
+<P>
+If you find someone who you want to add to your Friends list:
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">4. Click on their avatar, and from the pie menu, select Add Friend.</font>
+<P>
+They'll get a dialog asking them if they want to accept your offer of Friendship. If they say &quot;no,&quot; then they won't appear on your Friends list.. 
+<P>
+If someone clicks on your avatar and wants to become your Friend, you'll be given the chance to say yes or no before it happens.
+<P>
+If you decide at a later time that you no longer want to be Friends with a particular person, you can remove them from your Friends list, and you will automatically be removed from theirs.

+<P>
+Your Inventory is your treasure chest. It holds everything that you build, own and need.  There's even a Library that contains objects, clothing, outfits, textures, and more for you to use.
+<P>
+Let's take a quick look at it:
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">1. Click on the Inventory button in the lower-right corner of the screen.</font><P>
+The Inventory box is set up like a filing cabinet, with folders and files. You can have folders inside other folders to help organize things as you gather more and more stuff.
+<P>
+Think of your Inventory as a huge electronic closet.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">2. Look at the name of all the folders in your Inventory, then go ahead and look through them.</font>
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">3. Click on the small &quot;+&quot; next to a folder to open it, then click on the &quot;-&quot; to close it.</font>
+<P>
+The main folders are:
+<P>
+<font color="#006000">Body Parts</font> -- here's a place to store different body parts. The ones that are in bold text are currently worn by your avatar. Double-click on a body part to wear it.
+<P>
+<font color="#006000">Calling Cards</font> -- here's where the calling cards that you gather are stored, plus your own. Double-click on a calling card to find out more information about the person behind the card. 
+<P>
+<font color="#006000">Clothing</font> -- this is a folder where you can keep assorted pieces of clothing, plus whole outfits, so you can change your avatar's looks as often as you like. Outfits can even hold body parts and shapes, so when you change, you really change. Clothes that you're currently wearing are shown in bold text.
+<P>
+<font color="#006000">Landmarks</font> -- this folder holds all of your landmarks, including the ones you make yourself.
+<P>
+<font color="#006000">Note Cards</font> -- this folder holds note cards, which are like sticky notes: a place to keep text notes to yourself.
+<P>
+<font color="#006000">Objects</font> -- this is a folder that holds various things that you make or buy in Second Life. They can range from small toys to whole houses.
+<P>
+<font color="#006000">Photo Album</font> -- this is where the screenshots you take are stored. You can take screenshots by selecting <font color="#006000">Take Screenshot</font> in the File menu.
+<P>
+<font color="#006000">Scripts</font> -- this folder holds a number of useful scripts that can be attached to objects to make them more interactive. You can write your own scripts if you choose, or use scripts created by others and just modify them. For instance, you can use a Door script on the door to your house and easily modify the password.
+<P>
+<font color="#006000">Sounds</font> -- this folder holds sounds that you can play or attach to avatar gestures (we'll do this later). You can record your own sounds and upload them into your Inventory.
+<P>
+<font color="#006000">Textures</font> -- this folder is for graphics that you can use to decorate your walls, to add flair to anything you build, and even create new items of clothing.
+<p>
+<font color="#006000">Trash</font> -- this is where everything you delete from your Inventory goes until you empty the trash. It's a safety feature that helps you get back things you may have accidentally deleted.
+<p>
+<font color="#000080">5. Click on the X button to close the Inventory box.</font>

+<BODY>
+<br>
+As you learn to move around in Second Life, you may find that you may want to use one hand on the keyboard to move around while you're using the mouse to do other things.  As a result, it's easiest to learn how to move with the mouse and keyboard.
+<P>
+Follow the instructions below to learn how to move your avatar with the keyboard.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">1. Take a look at this chart:</font>
+<P>
+<font color="#B00000">W = Forward<BR>
+S = Backward
+<P>
+A = Left<BR>
+D = Right
+<P>
+E = Fly Up (Jump)<BR>
+C = Fly Down (Duck)
+<P>
+F = Fly toggle</font>
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">2. Play around with these keys and walk around until you get the hang of it.</font>
+<P>
+If your avatar starts typing instead of walking, press ESC a few times to get out of Chat.
+<P>
+Notice that you can press two keys at a time. For instance, while pressing W to move forward, tap on the D or A keys to turn without stopping. 
+<P>
+If you'd rather use your right hand, you can also use the arrow keys:
+<P>
+<font color="#B00000">Up Arrow = Forward<BR>
+Down Arrow = Backward
+<P>
+Left Arrow = Left<BR>
+Right Arrow = Right
+<P>
+PageUp = Fly Up (Jump)<BR>
+PageDown = Fly Down (Duck)
+<P>
+Home = Fly toggle</font>
+<P>
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">3. Press the F key.</font>
+<P>
+Your avatar flies.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">4. Fly around using the keyboard.</font>
+<P>
+Again, take some time to get the hang of it.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">5. Press the F key to stop flying.</font>
+<P>
+If you were up very high, your landing might not be very pretty, but don't worry ... it won't hurt.

+<BODY>
+<br>
+Landmarks help you find your way to new places, or find your way back to a place you liked. You have a number of useful, ready-to-use landmarks at your disposal. Later, you'll be making your own.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">1. Look at the Mini-Map. (Click on the "Mini-Map" button if you don't see it.)</font>
+<P>
+In addition to showing an overview of the world, the Mini-Map also helps you find your way around.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">2. Click on Mini Map to open the World Map window.</font>
+<P>
+The World Map shows more of the Second Life world.  Some extra controls appear on the right side of the map, including a pull-down list of landmarks.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">3. Click on Landmark pull-down</font>
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">4. Select a Landmark that sounds interesting to you.</font>
+<P>
+Once you select a landmark in this list, a couple of things happen: the landmark appears on the map as a red square, and a large beacon appears in the world at the landmark's location. 
+<P>
+You only see beacons while a landmark is selected, and only you can see it. So don't tell someone to go to the big red beacon, because they won't see it unless they have the same landmark selected.
+<P>
+If you've wandered a ways from your starting point, you may not be able to see the landmark on the map. If that's the case:
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">5. Slide the Zoom slider to shrink the map until you can see the red square that marks the landmark.</font>
+<P>
+Once you see the landmark on the map:
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">6. Click the Teleport button on the World Map.</font>
+<P>
+Your avatar will teleport to a Telehub.  This is a central teleport location that's close to your landmark.  You'll need to fly the rest of the way.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">7. Use the A and D keys, or left and right arrow keys, to turn your avatar until the red arrow inworld points in front of you (the center of the screen).</font>
+<P>
+At this point, your avatar is facing the landmark. You should be able to see a tall red beacon marking the landmark in-world.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">8. Go to the landmark.</font>

+The point-and-go method is fine if you know where you want to go, but if you want to just wander around, there's a better way to go.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">1. Click on your avatar.</font>
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">2. When the pie menu opens, move the cursor up and click on &quot;Go...&quot;.</font><P>
+A small box with arrows in it opens near the bottom of the screen.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">3. Click (or click and hold) on all of the arrows, one at a time.</font><P>
+If you play with these for a while, you'll get the hang of moving forward and backward, turning left and right, side-walking left and right, and even jumping and crouching.
+<P>
+Now we'll try a shortcut:
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">4. Click and hold on the forward arrow, then, while still holding, slide the cursor out of the box, left and right, forward and backward.</font>
+<P>
+Take some time and practice guiding your avatar around in this way.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">5. Click on the Fly button.</font>
+<P>
+Your avatar rises into the air.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">6. Use the arrows as before to fly around. Don't forget to try the up and down arrows.</font>
+<P>
+Take your time and practice a little before you move on.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">7. Click on the Fly button again to return to the ground.</font>

+Your avatar's appearance tells people something about you (the person behind the avatar). There's also another way to let others know about yourself: your Profile.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">1. Click on your avatar.</font>
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">2. From the pie menu, select My Profile ... </font>
+<P>
+Your Profile opens. It has your screen name and some checkboxes and spaces to supply informaiton about yourself. It also shows how others have rated you and how many others you have rated.
+<P>
+There's also a place to put an image. The image can be your (human) picture, your avatar's picture, a logo, or anything else (or nothing) that you want. To change the image, click on it. An Image Picking dialog will open and let you select from all the images at your disposal.
+<P>
+The information in your Profile is public. The Find feature searches through profiles to help you find others with similar interests (and others find you).
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">3. Take some time and tell us about yourself. You can always come back and change or add to this information later.</font>
+<P>
+When you're ready to move on, click Next below.

+<BODY>
+<br>
+Let's go shopping.
+<P>
+In Second Life, there are &quot;official&quot; stores and vending machines where you can buy things, but you can also buy (or take a free copy of) many things that aren't in stores. In fact, you can put a price on anything you build and if people want it, they can buy it and you get the money.
+<P>
+You can use the Find window to look up a variety of places, selling virtually anything imaginable.  Whatever your interest, there's probably a store selling it somewhere in Second Life.  When you've selected a store in the Find window, you can teleport to it or mark it on your Map.
+<P>
+"Window shopping" in Second Life is actually quite simple.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">1. Find an object that interests you, and point to it.</font>
+<P>
+After a second or so some information about the object will pop up. The information will include whether it's for sale and how much it costs.  If the object is not listed as For Sale, try left-clicking it to see if it's a scripted vendor instead.  (If so, it'll tell you in chat how much the item costs.)
+<P>
+Once you find something that interests you:
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">2. Right-click on the object.</font>
+<P>
+A pie menu opens.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">3. Select Buy on the left of the pie menu.</font>
+<P>
+A confirmation dialog will open giving you the details of the transaction, including the price. If you want it:
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">4. Click on Buy.</font>
+<P>
+If the object's popup doesn't list it as For Sale, but clicking it tells you the price, then the Buy menu choice probably isn't available.  In this case, we're going to Pay the vendor, and it'll give us the item:
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">4. Right-click on the vendor and choose Pay.  Enter the cost of the item you're trying to buy, and click OK.  When a blue box comes up offering you the item you just bought, click Accept.</font>
+<P>
+You've just made your first financial transaction. The object you just bought is placed in your Inventory.  Notice that its name may include <b>(no copy)</b>, <b>(no modify)</b>, or <b>(no transfer)</b>; this means that you can't copy the object, can't edit the object, or can't give the object away, respectively.
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">6. If you bought clothing, drag it from Inventory onto your avatar.  If you bought an object, drag it from Inventory to some location inworld.</font>
+<P>
+If you bought clothing, your avatar will wear the clothing when you drag it onto yourself.  If you bought an object, it'll appear inworld at the place you drop it.
+<P>
+If you thought you bought clothing, but end up with a box on your head when you drag it onto yourself, don't worry!  Right-click the box and <b>Detach</b> it, then drag in somewhere else (just like an object).  Right-click the box and choose <b>Edit</b>, then click <b>More</b>, then finally choose its <b>Contents</b>.  You should find the clothing you bought in there; drag it from the box's Contents into your Inventory.  You can then wear your new clothing.
+<P>
+If the object you bought is <b>(no copy)</b>, notice how it disappears from inventory when you bring it inworld.  If you lose track of a no-copy object when it's inworld, it may be very hard to find it again!  You can right-click your object and choose <b>Take</b> to put it back in your inventory.  If the object isn't (no copy), notice how it remains in your Inventory even when you bring it inworld.  You'll always have a copy of this object (unless you manually delete the Inventory copy, of course!)
+<P>
+<font color="#000080">7. To take back an object inworld, right-click on the object you created, and choose Take.  To delete the object, right-click it, and press the Del key on your keyboard.</font>
+<P>
+You should only delete an object if you still have a copy in Inventory!  If you don't have a copy in your Inventory, be sure and Take it instead.
+<P>
+You can go on a shopping binge now, or click Next to move on.
