I'd like to use our time today to show you a bit about the Freeze Frame checkbox in the Second Life Snapshot tool. This little checkbox has saved me a WORLD of headache, allowed me to catch exactly the frame I want, made it easy to catch my avatar in a blink or smile, and many other things.

What You'll Need For This Tutorial:

1. Second Life's Snapshot Tool

2. About 5 minutes!

3. Patience. Remember, practice makes perfect.

A couple of things I'll be showing you in this tutorial is how to use the freeze frame (where it is, how to turn it on and off, etc), an explination of how to use freeze frame to catch your avatar in a blink (another method is slowing animations, but I'm not going to cover that in this tute), and demonstrating the effect of freeze frame on moving prims and particle effects.

Using Freeze Frame to Capture a Blink:

1. Open the Snapshot tool and tick the Freeze Frame tickbox.
