Call for Entries: Ideas for New Virtual Items

Dear Twinizens,

As you know, an important part of the Twinity Beta is getting your feedback. From your contributions so far, we already know that you have creative ideas that help to further develop Twinity. You now have another chance to actively shape the world!
You may have experienced moments like these while in Twinity: “I wish there were curtains for my virtual apartment!” and “It would be cool if my avatar could dress up in a space suit for a costume party.”
IdeasOur developer team is looking for new virtual items to create and we are reaching out to you for your creative ideas! Here are some examples:
Home - curtains, wallpaper, plant stands, solid wall colors
Accessories - headphones, hair ornaments, jewelry, hats, glasses
Clothes and body - new t-shirt designs, hairstyles, tuxedos, sweat socks, tattoos
Items to hold – bags, backpacks, birthday gifts, umbrellas
Note: Very small items are barely visible on your screen, so keep that in mind when you submit your suggestions. Describe your ideas in detail, so we know exactly what you mean!
Please send your ideas by 05.05.08 to newideas@twinity.com or comment on this blog! The most popular contributions will be implemented in Twinity.
We look forward to hearing from you and we can’t wait to see what you come up with!

The Twinity Team

PS: We will present some of your ideas at our upcoming in-world party on May 8th! The party begins at 19:00 (CET) in the Welcome Area, Berlin. Stay tuned to Twinity.com for more details.

[Support] Twinity update done - new login and privacy settings, release notes sent

Dear Twinizens,

Related to the updated naming system, we have a few things to tell you about how to log in to Twinity now:

  1. You need you use your email address instead of your username. You’ll see that in the login form both on www.twinity.com and in the Twinity client.
  2. You need to log in once on www.twinity.com and set your privacy settings. As soon as you log in on www.twinity.com, you will be automatically taken to a form to set privacy for your name display, your birth date display and your online status display.

Additionally, I have sent release notes to the Twinity-beta mailing list with information about what is included in this update.

Thanks!
