The image tearing is a glitch. I love glitches. They were easy to create in the early days of computer imaging but are now almost impossible to find. Luckily there's Second Life, which is full of them.

This is from a capture taken in Second Life at an art opening at the Metaverse Gallery.

	Dean Terry says: Thanks Torley - Actually it's 2 glitches in one: the mouth on this avatar was stuck open, which is why I took the capture, it just so happened that I also got the tearing effect. I'm thinking of making a bunch of these, recreating the glitch over and over... Posted 13 months ago. ( permalink )
	♥ Codie ♥ says: Well Dean, It does produce interesting results! And since you actually provoked bugs to produce those images, I guess there worthy enough for the SL Oddities pool. Congrats! ;) Posted 13 months ago. ( permalink )
