Looking very interesting! Nice find!

@dan rathbun said: Yes I can, but sometimes it's tricky, it selects move leader instead. Often takes a few trys, or zooming in a bit. @tig said: Click+drag on the text-leader's arrowhead - i.e. hold the left-mouse-button down and drag the cursor [now attached onto the arrowhead] to a new position for the arrow, snapping the arrowhead onto any new object - resulting in a modified piece of Text that you would have otherwise needed to recreate from scratch... 8 attempts didn't work, the ninth was successful. Thank you!

True that the Gallery entries are not "articles" - i.e. no RSS feed for them. I guess we should post articles about each gallery entry anyway so there should be also rss entry for them. Needs a bit of poking around but I think it's solvable.

@mike lucey said: Andrew, the old connector is a 'clip-in' whereas the new one looks to be some sort of a magnet system! As regards me not going for an upgrade. Well I have quite a few devices that 'fit' the iPhone4 and 4S body shape. They will not fit the new iPhone5 case as its longer and slimmer. Also I don't see much in the iPhone5 that is not in the iPhone4S. I don't think 4G will be available anytime soon here and I can live without it for a while longer I may change when I get a free upgrade AND am able to get new cases to fit my stuff ...... we will see. Over the past couple of years I have been getting into the 'if its not broken don't upgrade' mode! This applies to a lot of things and to be honest, once I get over the initial urge to change for the latest and greatest, I'm fine with what I have Same goes for my 17" MBP, I intend to knock at least another 12 months out of it! And by this time most of the Mac Apps I use should be retina compatible, I hope Bet you are sorry you asked now mmmmm......

There aren't enough Xs in my Scrabble game to spell out your birthday in Roman numerals, but Happy birthday anyhow.

I'm always late on the HB post BUT this time I'm early!

Cheers, Richard...!

It is safe to assume John is rolling his eyes in the front cover picture because of something I said At least, that is the way it usually goes.

Bakescape didn't do a very clean uninstall

Thanks Eric for the tutorial...must try this out tomorrow when I get into work! antoine You bet. Thanks for the subject. Tried it out...I need to try it again a few times, major fail. One question - First step page 12 -rotate 90...should that be rotate 180? Indeed it is. Sorry for the mix up.

Woah! Vertigo. The walk mode is like walking down the street on a 50 ft pair of stilts while looking through the wrong end of a pair of binoculars, silvered on the inside.

@michaliszissiou said: @Rick I strongly recommend you to register to blenderartists.org if not done already. with some similar name, I guess, so to find you as a friend there. I also recommend you to learn the nodes set up system of cycles. An excellent UI with almost endless possible solutions. Very easy to handle it, after watching some basic setups. Blender isn't sketchUp. But, it does huge steps to this direction, day by day. On the other hand it's much more powerful on organic modeling. Blender isn't just another modeler, either. It's much more. A powerful app that is developing rapidly. And still, we can use SU for archi-modeling and export excellent obj files to blender. Textures and UVs included. Thanks to TIG http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=323&t=33448 You may need some other tools, we had a discussion here: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=179&t=44345 I enjoyed the making of a snow scene. Though not for cycles*, still very enlightening on how to use weight painting. *can be done in cycles, masks (stencils) have to be handled as 'factors'. lol, learn cycles nodes! About shortcuts and inputs: Under user preferences, find them there, it's easier. Have a look how my setup looks.

@ecuadorian said: Did you render it with Cycles? No, just Blender render. The cycles part needs to be tweaked in system preferences and I daren't go in there @iichiversii said: That's great Rich, any link to tut? http://cgcookie.com/blender/category/tutorials/animation/
