Welcome to The Spore Trail
Samuel Lison
Welcome to my personal corner on the Web! I am Samuel Lison, and I am from Melbourne, Australia!
I created this website as my little corner to consolidate all my thoughts, opinions, art and words into one place that is owned and self-hosted by me.
I chose to move away from mainstream social media and creating my own domain and identity on the internet where I am free to say and express what I wish and how I wish.
On this website, I also share my photography journey, which includes photos I have imported and edited from RAW format into art, as well as sound recordings from my hiking adventures which I make available for you to download completely free, or, you can choose to pay what you feel my work is worth to you. All through Ko-Fi. Just visit the shop and browse!
I appreciate you visiting my corner, and look forward to some productive discussions.

Discourse Updates
I run a community within Second Life that is known as SL Colonies. With this community comes the need for a place to store all our knowledge, questions, answers and communication.
We also use Discord. But what I have found over the years is …

I’m going to try out the Documentation plugin for #Discourse. Our community has outgrown wiki’s of one page with tables of hundreds of game recipes that cannot be searched by our players. Time to have everything indexed and searchable properly I think.

Made a little javascript on our #Discourse banner that rotates the sub-header based on if you are logged in or anonymous. Logged in user subheading will rotate on a daily basis - forum.slcolonies.com, check it out. I also added little tag icons for fun.
