If a structure in SL is close to real word dimensions, your camera hits the ceiling and it is really difficult to get a good camera angle. For my taste, enclosed spaces in SL should be at least twice as high as you would have them in RL.<BR/><BR/>Proprtions - Many builders seem to get the proportions wrong. Probably because they take the headroom into account, you also end up with windows way above your head and doors suitable for a royal palace judged by their size. Even if a room has lots of headroom, I want the windows where I can actually use them to look through them, and I want the door be in proportion with my own size.<BR/><BR/>And finally I would like the encourage builders to be boring. In SL a table does not need legs. A lamp does not need a power cord from the ceiling. Water does not need to abide to the laws of gravity. Be creative!
