Hehe. Well. I agree with you there, Robo. Advertizing hype is just that, advertizing hype. My business is one where we deal with people face to face on very big ticket price tags. If I said things like what we read in cg software ads I'd be run outta town, but in the 3d cg world everybody seems to hype their hopelessly complex software as "easy to use" )) I started a thread on animation tips for you and a few other people, Robo. Take a look. Bear in mind that it's not a cure all. Just helps get ya going.
