So glad you liked the avatar. It might sound creepy, but we actually made it by using composites of Bill Gates actual skin/face.

Saw this on NWN and Hamlet is right, that avatar looks so much like Bill it’s scary! Very cool! How did you make it look so realistic?

Very funny. PC users all the way! Mac users don’t really know why they use a mac besides it’s cool to have one. (Sorry Drax)

Thank you for your compliment. However, while the set does look great, were it made with polygon meshes it would have been completed in less than half the time. Also, I would have been able to go even further in detail with the scene had I been able to rely on polygon meshes. Just like I said in my blog post on the subject, polygon mesh support would add functionality to Second Life, not take any away.

The sets and the Bill Gates avatar look photo realistic. You did a great job, and it you did it all without using MESHES… imagine that.

WHOA! That Gates avatar is impressive! The likeness is astonishing! Will we be seeing more of Gates “journeys” in SL?

Does that mean that Bill Gates is working on a project in Second Life?
