Zurich, Switzerland., February 27, 2013 - (PressReleasePoint) - METAVERSE Technology LLC launches w3dc.com – a marketplace for 3D software objects used in the gaming industry, the architecture business, by education providers or users of virtual worlds.

METAVERSE Technology’s w3dc.com, the web 3D community, is based on both the widely accepted COLLADA format for 3D objects, and standard image file formats for textures. This service is for professional and private 3D artists and graphics’ designers to market their web3D objects (e.g. mesh objects and textures). “The enhanced visibility for products through SEO [search engine optimization] and marketing power of a global platform will be felt on the artists’ money side of business, which resource will allow more flexibility”, says w3dc.com co-creator Jack Birken.
 
In a snapshot, w3dc.com works as follows: Users can open, equip and run their own online transaction system for free; they can sell their digital items under their own brand and in their own SSL transaction-secured w3dc.com e-stores. There are no restrictions such as the “exclusivity clause”: Shop owners at w3dc.com can run simultaneously their own web-shop while selling their digital content over their e-store. 
 
Jack and Pedro Birken created w3dc.com to also support open source projects in web3D areas such as realXtend, OpenSimulator and openwonderland to name but a few. This important feature of the service has been implemented through designated ‘donation shops’ to hold (or locate) high-end quality projects. “When we think about open source, we think freedom, not freebies”. On the advantages of w3dc.com, Jack further says “next to private e-stores, the aspect of supporting web3D pioneers by donating digital works to open source projects is core to our business ethics and comes naturally from Pedro’s programming background: an attitude which is shared by a wide programming community towards open source”.
 
Accepting only high quality, inoffensive contents on w3dc.com, not only has a useful tool been created, but also an exciting, multi-facetted place to be at for artists, designers and customers.
