Hoof It at Fantasy Faire

Hi, I'm Erin Talamasca, owner and creator of Hoof It animated horses and ponies. I am honored this year to be a sponsor of Fantasy Faire in Second Life.

You'll find the Hoof It store in the awesome steampunk sim Nemo Revisited, where you'll be able to pick up loads of avatar accessories designed specifically for the event, never to be sold again, and all for charity. You can see some snaps of the special products we'll have for sale in the Hoof It Flickr group!

I joined Second Life in September 2005, on the advice of my partner who was trying to convince me it was fun. "You can do ANYTHING!" he promised - and so I commandeered his computer and spent the next week trying to build a cow to prove it.

I still have that cow. It's about 20ft tall, and I wore it proudly on my head for days. But SL had me hooked.

I've been riding horses since I was four, and messing with computers for just about as long, so it was natural to me that since I'd moved into this fantastic virtual world, I would want to fill it with horses! For every success there must have been a hundred laughable failures, but finally in November 2006 I decided that I could either keep 'improving' my horses forever, or get on with it and see if anyone else wanted any - and Hoof It! was born.

If you like horses, you'll love Hoof It! Everything equestrian - whether you're looking for a riding horse or looking to BE a horse, we have your hooves here, from perfect realism to flights of fantasy along with more equine accessories than you can shake a stick at!

The winner of this aution will get a unique, one of a kind Hoof It! Horse Avatar - a matching set of Pegasus Wings - and a one-off version of our new Arabian Saddle sets. These designs will not be sold again - nobody else in SL will ever own them.

Here are the features of the items you will win:
