I will just write it down in a Q/A style, so it is a bit easier to follow. Q: What viewer do you use to access SecondLife ? Currently I am using the viewer BlackDragon. You can find more information on the following URL  https://niranv-sl.blogspot.com/ The reason why I use this viewer is very simple: Photographs I was pointed to the viewer by a friend of mine, and I was pleased with the way it uses my system to give me a decent view on the world.
