Perosnally i dont think there is any such barrage. I count 5 such threads on the first page of the corner bar out of a total 25 threads. The numbers decline sharply after that, with only 2 more such threads in the next 4 pages.

Id interesting threads outnumber the 'whats...' thread by a lot, although obviously this is very subjective.

The original two year old clip was much better to my taste...before he got funds to remake the thing.
It was a bit more spontaneous and the music track was great.
That clip got over 9 million viewers:

Thanks Phil! 👍

I'm usually making quick glances throughout the day while at work. I will scan the latest submissions in the Gallery, and then the corner bar. Sometimes I will look in the SU discussion forum, or the components.

Tom,

There is a phenomenon in northern Australia where rubber thongs [or as they are somtimes know,'flip-flops'] get washed up on the beaches. They are nearly always the same foot [cant remember which one].

The theory is, that because each [left and right] thong has a unique and different aerodynamic and aquadynamic shape it travels in a certain direction driven by the wind and currents.
So the left foot thongs end up in Darwin..and the right foot thongs sail on to Fiji or somewhere else.

So possibly all the left feet, in this instance, have landed on some deserted beach in Greenland....or are still bobbing along on the high seas.
😆

Skandinavia er helt greit for meg, tenkte det var greit med en morsmålsgruppe med lokale prosjekter. Så lenge alle skjønner alle trenger vi ikke å begrense oss.

Veldig hyggelig at det ble befolket så fort!! Og nå har vi som modellerer mot GE et møtested.

Jeg deltar i BIM Storm London 24-26, på laget BIM Vikings. Tenkte jeg kunne poste ting derfra her etterhvert.

😄...but I bet you have a full fruit basket on your kitchen table.
(sorry, couldn't resist kicking in an open door, Stinkie 😉 )

Thanks Wyatt, cool pics! (I have also commented one) 😉

apparently there were "meeting" bicycles with five seats so that you could conduct a meeting while on the bicycle. I did not see them but I think Ross did?

Nice collection, cheers Todd 👍

After messing around with Maxwell for a couple of months and then discovering VRay I've never looked back. Sure it's still a bit buggy (which software isn't these days? 😒 ) and the numerical inputs of the VRay UI are very dry and confusing at first, but the manual explains most of them them pretty clearly and the way the whole plugin is integrated with SU is streets ahead of Maxwell IMO. The results are as good as almost any renderer out there and in a fraction of the time (we're talking 1/100th of Maxwell), and it's possible to render out your SU Scene animations or batch render all your SU scenes overnight- this has saved me sooooo much time when I needed multiple views of a model asap.

Yep, I'm a VRay fanboy! 😉

My guess is thta it wont work, as i imagine the drivers alter other bits of the computer that are harder to copy across, for example theres a good chance that some registry values are modified upon installation of the drivers.

Welcome to SCF. I hope you made arraignments and were able to attend 3DBC 2008. It was a blast.

Great Photos Susan.

Thanks for the reply Ross. The positive intentions sound good, we'll just have to be patient as ever. They usually surprise us with a few great features when new versions do come out. I really hope as many people do, that handling of large models is addressed.

pshh! ive already seen it! this is kind of redundant, because all the car people would have already heard of it! there are entire magazines all full of car stuff. (i get three per month, im pretty informed)

still, i like it. mr bangle's "flame surfacing" desing method has alwas been a love-hate kind of thing, but i always thought it looked cool.

Had a better look at this software and I believe it would be very easy to bundle a library of shapes that one can modify with SU and create ones own creatures in SU. With all our new tools we can even map the UV's perfectly giving more texture options.

...hmmm... would there be a market for such a thing?

Thanks, Mike. I have been having fun exploring this site. May even start a "thread" (if that's the right term). You will remember our conversation regarding the topic. Hope you have a good flight and enjoy touring New York.

Steve

if you have too much money left at the end of the month (what, of course, always happens 😕 ), I would advice you to buy a gamer mouse.

I bought the Logitech MX518 one or thwo years ago. and it is the best mouse I ever bought - very precise, very responsive and comfortable to use for hours!

I will probably only discard it, when the era of mouse aided input ends (which hopefully with the technology of iPhone and Microsoft Surface won't be too far away 😎 )

Chuck Norris doesn't eat honey - he chews bees!

(shall we open up a chuck norris thread?)

i think that is adviseable, before chuck norris gets angry about not having his own thread and round-house kicks us all.
