Hello. I wish to turn off the ability for my profile to show up in search engine searches, and I can find no way to do this via the privacy settings. Am I overlooking the function? If I cannot hide the profile from search engines, I would like to remove my profile completely, but I also cannot find a way to do this. Could someone please advise?
Thank you and best wishes.

Hi there,
I am trying to upload a pp, but non of the categories let me do it.
I will convert my video into virtual world and merge the pp into it.
Do you think I can do it, or any suggestion for me to follow?
Thank you,
Zuhal

Hal, take a look at OpenSim, which is opensource and will let you have a private VR server. It is well documented. CentralGrid is one of many grids it can be connected to - see the Grids tab on the homepage, which is here:
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Main_Page
It will run on most platforms (I prefer Linux, but Windows is an option)

Hello.. Its been years since I play round with VR applications and it has come a long way. I am looking for a opensource client and server solution to experement. What is the role of CentralGrid ? Can I have a "private" VR server ? What tools do you recommend to get started ?
Thanks
Hal
