POPSNew CM shirts and their virtual versions for Second Life As some of you would probably remember, I made some Clipmarks t-shirts four months ago and placed the package at popular freebie places at Second Life, as a free giveaway.

Almost identical with the real ones, so you can make your avatar wear them and spread the word in the metaverse too.
