Bento is not all about being human though ! With Bento , there are a few really interesting new options … wings , tails and additional arms ! Role-players will delight in this , that ’ s for sure … and the creators ? Well , they ’ re going hog-wild making things to fit these new options for residents to enjoy . The market is beginning to burst with some seriously fun new items ! People can be whatever they want in SL now , more than ever before !
Slow , the SL Marketplace is filling with items , just do a search for the word “ bento ” and see what I mean . Within the last 3 days alone , at least 20 new bento rigged products have been added , and it ’ s been like this every day since Bento hit the scene .
But don ’ t just look at SL Marketplace to find Bento products , there ’ s even more in world and shopping in world is actually more beneficial to our virtual existence overall as it supports having sims , which supports having spaces for us to take our avatars ! A great example is Aii and the demon wings that have just come out . Aren ’ t they just the slickest thing ?
I am personally excited to watch this continue to grow , keeping up with the huge community demand for more and more avatar personalization options as more and more people grasp the power of this amazing new tool !
I was one of the people to send a note to Firestorm begging ( yes , I begged for Bento ) for them to add Bento to the browser already , to ensure the future of this exciting new addition to our Second Lives .
Now that the two most popular viewers , the SL viewer and the Firestorm viewers , both have Bento , and the older versions of their browsers have been phased out , it ’ s no longer scarey to adopt Bento .
Soon , other browsers wil have to adopt the new tools , and everyone will be able to see us correctly and oh what a flexible world it will be !
