Faerie Hax sends this Tableau of herself and an unknown friend from the region called Hollow Earth, beneath the Tekeli-li shop. "The owners of Tekeli-li created a large series of caverns underneath their store for everyone to explore and play in," she writes me. "The caverns are connected by water and they give you your own boat to go exploring in. And you get to keep the boat! It's quite an extensive area." (Ms. Hax used very little Photoshop for the final image, she reports, merely for resizing and adding some touches of shadow.) Direct teleport to Hollow Earth at this link.

Submitting to New World Tableau:
New World Tableau is an ongoing album featuring Residents who've turned SL screenshots into a new art form, vividly conveying emotions, stories, and entire cultures in a single image.
- If you come across a picture or image stream that deserves a place here, please IM (Hamlet Au) or e-mail ([email protected]) me the link. Please e-mail me the image as a file link, or attached as an .jpeg or .gif, as long as it's under a meg in size.
- Submission tip: I regularly check the SL screenshot stream of New World Notes partner Koinup, an MMO social network-- consider creating an account there.
- Submitting as an in-world texture not recommended, as they often come out distorted and not high res.
- Feel free to describe what the image says to you, or if you're the creator, what inspired you to make it.
- Whenever possible, name the Residents pictured, and include a SLURL to the location (when appropriate.)
- Moderately Photoshopped images are OK, just mention if this is the case, and what effects were added. (On rare occasions when the post-production adds a special element, heavily Photoshopped images are also appropriate.)
- If you submit an image to NWT, it's assumed I have permission to run it, either as the owner, or because it's been appropriately CC licensed. The original creator retains all their rights to it, in any case.
