Create Your Own Second Life and OpenSimulator Marketplace

Con Wylie has been working on a Second Life and Open Simulator marketplace where users can buy items from your website, just like Linden Labs marketplace. The create your own part is to let store owners integrate it on their site. Store owners now do not have to do all the hard coding that took me half a year to create and protect form hackers. With the API users can change the core scripts to suit their needs, e.g. let users pay with PayPal or other online shopping sites!

** Step-by-step on how it works for your users **

1: The user pays one of your inworld terminals and has a marketplace account created for them.

2: The user logins with their Second Life username and the password sent to them via step 1.

3: The user browses the store and clicks the 'buy now' button.

4: The amount of the item is taken from their 'online' account (their online balance is updated by paying the inworld terminal)

5: The item is then sent to their Second Life account.

Simple :)

More know-hows:

*A user can click and hold an inworld terminal to reset their password to a randomly chosen one

*Users do not need to spend time creating an account, all they do is pay the terminal, and their account is created on the fly. Once their account is created when they now pay the terminal the amount is added to their account (this took along time to code)
