Ukivok opened a week ago, and the response has been very positive. The sim has been busy, often full at peak times, and we were pleased to see very generous reviews from Inara Pey, Maddy Gynoid and Diomita and Jenny Maurer. Thanks, also, to everyone who has signed the guestbook so far – your comments are better than tips! We’re yet to hear from anyone who has actually visited King Island, we’d be somewhat amazed if anyone came along who has. Still, you never know in Second Life …
As always, we’ve been watching the work of visiting photographers with great interest. We expected the sim to be quite difficult to photograph, but over 350 pictures have already been posted to the Flickr group. There have been some outstanding shots of the village from a distance …
… as well as some great pictures that highlight the precariousness of the buildings …
There have been some terrific landscape pictures …
… and some fabulous details …
Finally, there are those pictures that just seem to evoke an undefinable sense of place and atmosphere – of ‘being there’ …
As always, our thanks to everyone who has visited the sim, left a comment, taken a picture, or just enjoyed being there. We have no plans to close it just yet … but you know how it is with our places – Ukivok won’t stay open forever, so enjoy it while you can.
