Thanks for all your work here, Kixum, it is appreciated even by a "silent visitor" like me. As a Carrara newbie, the backroom is helpful and I'm fascinated by the 10 minute challenges but don't feel that there's a need for much else.

I do agree with Graviton. The Carrara user base is way different from Poser, Bryce, Vue, etc. I suspect that most of us are in graphics professionally so, apart from lack of time, there might be the commercial copyright aspect of posting a client's work in the galleries.

Therefore I think that the more "cuddly, communal" activities aren't needed here. Don't get me wrong, I like the Poser and Vue forums especially the latter. I'm just saying that, because of the different inhabitants in the this forum there's less need for competitions, etc.

Cheers,
Mark
