Snapshot: Arm Strom

Filthy Fluno and his art in Second life. An interesting link:  "Portrait of an Artist as an Avatar", by Sara Corbett. Published: March 5. 2009 in The New York Times.

I found a snapshot in my inventory too, from March 28. 2008 (last year). I wonder why some men approach me with horns and helmets?
