    BlenderGIS can get you pretty good images.. you do need an API key to get set up but it's all free and you can even generate 3d geometry based on the elevations in the satellite images.. it tiles in blender so you the more you zoom the better the image quality to a point.

    Hey Mike, I'm sure you figured this out already, but when you first create the attribute type a number with the inch mark like 0" or 0' in the value box and hit enter. This will set the unit for that attribute to inches. This only works for the first time a value is entered. After that first initial value, you will need to use the attribute info dialog to make changes. In addition, you can use 0 to set it to text (not "Default: Text") and 0cm to set it to centimeters. If anyone knows a shortcut for setting the unit to Decimal Number, I would love to hear it!

    Thank you one and all. I have explored all of your valuable advice. Exporting PNG's into Premier Elements worked a treat. I now have a beautifuly slick 20 scene animation. It looks great and my client loves it!!! Thanks again, I realy appreciate it!

    Id have to go with norbert on this, its a lot easier doing stuff like this with NURBS. You can then convert to polys if you need to. MoI is a good place to start for easy NURBS modelling.

    Since they all seem to work when hardware acceleration is off it sound like a graphic driver bug. Is your graphics driver up to date? What hardware do you have?

    nice presentation, Coen (only found it today). didn't know about the workaround to position textures. but I think this is definitely something needed for SU7 - better texture control... @mrjumpmanv2: I always used two teams of about 10 prism tanks to destroy bases (but only after sending a spy into the enemys base, so that all my tanks are already upgraded once...)

    @plot-paris said: one thing you can definitely do is switch off the "proviles" in the style window. the model will look nicer and you save some processing power... Thanks Plot, dd that and it does look better,, (so much to learn )

    How about some nice Romanesue churches? They may seem to be rather difficult by the first sight but you can start with a simple one and keep adding things to it (like it was actually being done hundreds of years ago).

    wow, thanks- that clears things up a bit. Great, and £27 is the kind of thing I can afford at the moment too. It also said I can put that money towards a proper license as well. I love google
