Cruelty to humans you say?

Don't mess with the Gator....

Three Blondes are walking through some woods when they come across a set of tracks, they start arguing about what kind of tracks they are - the first Blond thinks they are deer tracks, the second blond insists that they are wild pig tracks, the third blond kneels down to take a closer look at them and is hit by the oncoming train.

The second one - it looks tidier, and the wider bars don't add anything to the design.

The website currently looks a bit messy as the news column on the right hand side overlaps the 'background' border, I guess because the contest image slideshow is too wide.

If I understand what you want to do correctly - don't use push/pull, just select the front face of the roof and use the move tool while you lock the direction of movement to the angle of the roof (hold shift while cursor is on roof edge)

This couldn't be related to the date could it?

Caught me out for a minute or two until I remembered the date - Dammit!

We need to have a "we're not worthy" smily on here!

Google - learn from the master!

I remember reading a hilarious book (perhaps co-authored by Michael Palin?) which took unusual names of place in Britain and used them as new words for previously undefined definitions.

Yes - 'the meaning of Liff', by Douglas Adams....ie what I linked to

Have you read The meaning of Liff I guess somebody needs to do an updated version to deal with modern technology.

The Web Exporter plugin might be what you're after.

A new "D'uh" for me: holding shift while using the smoove tool: smooves from normals.

Damn!! This has to be the most useful 'Duh!' in the thread - is this documented anywhere?!

If you're modelling Gundams This site has some good tips and tricks.

I wonder if you could make money by buying zimbabwe dollars and then selling them to a paper recycling company? Or use them as very cheap toilet paper?

Just draw the triangles where you want them and push/pull them through the blade.

I don't know if this is what you want to do or of any use but it's a quick attempt, I'm sure there's a much simpler way of doing it.

Your work looks good to me, my only suggestion is to keep down file sizes remember to cut symmetrical body part components in half and then copy/flip them, and for making curved surfaces don't underestimate the scale tool (especially Fredo6's Freescale plugin)

There are some good tutorials for modeling Gundams Here

I was quite pleased by this pic I took after my sisters wedding (though I cheated abit - photoshopping out a few surfers)

And I took a pic of this as I didn't have a clue what it was (It's a Hummingbird-Hawkmoth)

Camera is Canon Powershot A620.

Crenellations (or castellations) I assume the slits in the walls would be 'balistraria' - to fire arrows through.

Great work with this very useful sript, Google really needs to give you a job!
