@mike lucey said: I thought the Variér Furniture collection might be worth mentioning here, should look very well in renders! I've been sitting - well, kneeling, on one of the slightly less expensive versions of that for about 25 years now. I always wanted the one with a back that you could sort of rock back in and use as an armchair as well as a desk chair. Never did get round to it but the plain kneeler has served me well and saved my back for half my life.

Why not start a thread here if you have something you want to add? Copy the original notes into quotes then add your own recollection.

True. I even have a 16-y-o niece. I'll pass the video to her parents.

OK... It stopped all of a sudden this afternoon... Wonder if it was a Google add or something else...?!?

Csaba Unzip and run normally, you do not need any fancy app.

There wasn't any official video done during the sessions so I expect that might be it.

@chris fullmer said: Sounds interesting. I lost a lot of faith in Maxwell after they messed up their original beta soooo badly. I half expect them to look for every cool feature of this new software and then tweak it before public release so it no longer works as desired. Chris, mate I can certainly support what you are saying about the earliest beta's being a bit of a mess up! But I guess we need to stay mindful they were then heading into unchartered waters then with unbiased rendering! No other unbiased render engines existed, no proper ruby support for SU, also given the new comers aiming to emulate their model are yet to produce the same image quality or for that matter meet their promised deadlines by almost a year one has to have some sympathies and given support for their breaking new ground. I'd suggest even the new comers would not be so advanced with apsects like re-lighting and a stack of other features had they not headed the way. And I'd suggest with this new plugin further development in the competition will follow in an attempt to keep pace and again somewhat aim to emulate!

...and there were another "big sessions" ?

Oli Must be frustrating to know your car would still be fine if you'd only saw James' tutorial sooner (Sorry couldn't resist. My apologies if I hurt your feelings. But must say I'm glad you got out OK) Flapsy

@solo said: I like the idea, I think this could be a great solution for our future power requirements. I'm just concerned about driving on glass on a rainy/snowy/icy day however. Hey Pete, recycled glass is already used as aggregate in some road toppings anyway!

that thing looks like it's right up your alley, man... thanks for sharing! noted

I got attacked on my gmail account last month. Had to jump through hoops to get it sorted Must be only the really influential folks getting fingered!

gallery wise.....fur plugin thread received a lot of attention, not sure how many views. silvershadow, free agent and kwistenbiebels work also draw much attention and quite rightly so!!

That's great Graziano, thanks! Long live Flickr too BTW. I'm tired of picasaweb
