Gray's Notes for Virtual Places Newbies (and Others)
Places to See
What and Why:
Just about any public page on the whole WorldWideWeb can be a viewed as a Room
in VP. These are some that I enjoy. Just double-click on the thumbnail to visit the scene. I've indicated where you can
find an Index of these and other scenes by the Owner, with links.
Candid
My Cottage |
Hope Alight - I |
Hope Alight - II |
Lineman - I |
Lineman - II |
Four Seasons |
There are music and fun effects on a lot of
Candid's Scenes. I've shown two snaps of both
Hope Alight and Lineman. Candid's Cottage has
views of lots of rooms, and even of the "Dang Toilet".
Candid also has an unusually varied AV site.
Pixie
Garden (Index) |
Memories |
Animated Hot Tub
The water moves! |
Cruise
with nine shipboard scenes |
Birthday Party |
Lovers' Beach House
Nice surf sounds! |
|
The Hot Tub has music and animation, and can tax your Browser, so
you run some danger of getting booted, and it can take
a while to load, but it's worth it. And for those
interested, Pixie's 50 rooms includes three bedrooms.
Belladora
There are over 150 links from
Bell's Index, each to a poem and picture.
A Private Room |
Heaven |
Windows |
Capture |
I haven't explored them all (LOL), so there's lots for you
to do.
Gwydion
Gwydion's Home Page
contains links to other scenes, and to avatars and more.
Romantic Fireplace |
Enchanted Pool |
Exotic Pool* |
Autumn in Vt* |
Mayan Mysteries |
Tropical Paradise |
Gwydion's Garden |
|
The two scenes marked * are very large images. Oh, and the flames
in the RomanticFireplace flicker! A great place to go after a dip in Pixie's Hot Tub.
Kathy
Near the Ocean * |
House Party |
Desire |
Enchanted Waterfall |
Kiss the Rain |
If you like animated images you will love these. Waves
and waterfall, and clouds move. And Kiss the Rain is
one of my very favorite effects.
Paintings by Thomas Kinkade
Mountain Getaway |
Seaside Escape |
Castle Amore |
Dare to Dream |
I find these so beautiful, and so nice as chat backgrounds, that
I've put the whole collection here. Mountain Getaway is
a popular chat room, so if you want to see the painting unobstructed
you may need to turn off Avatars or create a private room.

Greetings |
Coree used to have some very pretty stationary chat backgrounds.
Of what's left only Misty Retreat qualifies.
The rest are all special-effects.
Click on Coree's picture to reach her homepage, which has lots of
worthwhile links.
