Having acquired a set of textures for making a warehouse I decided to adapt these to make a skybox. My first decision was how big to make it, did I make one about 20 m. by 10 m. which would easily fit above a minimum 512 sq. m. parcel of land ( 32 m x 16 m) or did I go for a bigger box perhaps 20 m x 30 m? The maximum size I could make, while still allowing it all to be linked together, seems to be limited by SL to 30 m x 30 m. You may wonder why I am setting sizes in multiples of 10m, this is to allow the maximum size for the fewest number of prims as the land on which the skybox will go is unlikely to have a large number of prims so the fewer the better.
