Welcome to Mirrorlabs Alpha!

Mirrorlabs is a new and exciting way of creating textures for use in Second Life. Using the flash web interface, you can create a custom avatar skin right on the 3d model and export your finished skin instantly! The products and items it is using are mainly Eloh Eliots and Sezmra Svarog’s open source skins, and as well as some of my own creations from Microphage. I will be working to expand the library and make thumbnails of the product. Mirrorlabs will eventually allow for user made stores - items that are mix and matched from different sources are billed seperately. Anyway, I would love if you try it out! It still needs a ton of work, so any comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated so I can shape this into a site that is very cool!
About Facebook : I used facebook connect for the login at the current time. It was easy to implement and I wanted to take advantage ( in the near future ) of the social networking potential ( being able to view your friends avatars, gifting items.. etc ). I understand this is a drawback for people that don’t use facebook or don’t want to connect their avatars to their real life identity. I am going to enable another way to login other that facebook soon, i have looked into openid becuase livejournal uses that but would appreciate any other login systems people would like to use.
Here is a live demo of the ( soon to be ) embeddable player. I also embedded some of the Help Demo Videos so you can get an idea of what you can do with my site! ( behind the cut )
