When I first started I found the above a very helpful site. Basically its over 80 short Quicktime movies on Bryce 5 meant for students. Almost a movie manual. Real Time Bryce 4 is brilliantly written but over here (UK) it`s nearer $40 s/h from Amazon. I was lucky, I got an extended loan from my local library. And you get to build up your muscles.(It`s HEAVY!) And as you`ve found, there`s no more helpful forum than this one.
