About

This skin is designed to give more choice, and hopefully improve the usability and promote usage of Second Life Viewer 2.0 Beta 202711 (and has only been tested with that version).
It consists of a number of previously published viewer tweaks - produced by various residents (see credits in 'Read Me') and added to, together with a slight reskinning to give the interface a lighter feel. It should hopefully benefit those people who have no wish to edit the XML code themselves yet wish to benefit from a number of tweaks made by other residents.

Major Changes to the Standard Skin

  • Extended Chat Bar
  • Better formatting of tabbed IM window
  • Several UI components made semi-transparent
  • "About Land" Button added to Navigation Bar
  • "Build" option added to the rightclick on object menu
  • "Grid Status" and "XStreet" options added to menu
  • "Map", "Mini-Map" and "Inventory" Buttons added to bottom bar
  • Sidebar no longer cropping view of the world and reduced in size
  • Black and Orange look

Known Bugs and Issues

  • Only working fully with English language version of the interface
  • 'Build' icons yet to be given new look and feel
