No problem Spence. Have a look around, they have some other pretty useful scripts there.

Golly gee, very nice comments. I see a lot talking about the sky and atmosphere. SO, I had nothing to do and made a video of me creating the sky. Now, I really just wanted to play with Camtasia. As for the video its hard to see exactly what I'm doing, so I'll explain. Simply 2 steps. First I place a gradient fill that is purple'ish and orange, then I selected a photograph of a sunset and set it to 50% opacity and placed it. Pretty simple. Here is the video

@gaieus said: Spence, be careful with gif images though - they can only handle 256 colours so your (most probably nice) render might get screwed up big time! It's quite a big "downgrade" from a jpg quality to gif quality. This is true. Some graphics apps have a setting that allows you to "dither" the gif image, which basically smooths the image. I'm not familiar with ImageReady (know of it, used it once) but I believe it should be able to "dither" the final gif.

I saved the SU file as a new one and had no problems with it. WEIRD!

Yep...that is the way to do it.

Ah, glad to hear (it was quite a time ago when I did that so I wasn't sure I remembered well )

Well thanks guys, I really thought I had tried that before, but I never did because I thought it always would say "Save As" instead of "Save Link As". For some reason i thought that "Save Link As" would save the internet address. Thanks again. I should have known better.

I must say that all the extremely nice comments are pleasant to hear. "Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for ’tis better to be alone than in bad company. –George Washington I'm in good company!

Thanks Boofredlay. All the images on my site were created by yours truly. The baseball Vilage is still a WIP. I really want to get back to creating some pure SU images, no post work. I have been itching to for a while now.

definitely looks like you are having fun... keep em coming

Thats great Tinanne. The development is a pretty good size, I would imagine they need a number of renderings. I occasionally check there site to see the latest with the project.
