Renderosity Magazine" blew quite a few doors off at Siggraph the first year it showed up there, and had quite a few of the other CG magazine folks scrambling to find out more about this community

I neglected to add that, as a direct result of how highly regarded that first publication was, Renderosity was able to get a permanent gallery into other CG magazines which it used to showcase and promote the talent of its members each and every month!

There's a list around here somewhere, I think, that goes through all the artists that got professional, world wide exposure because of the efforts for the Renderosity staff in either their own magazine or working with the commissioning editors of the other CG magazines around the world.

I'm not sure how many other communities do that for their members. Does anyone know of of any? (I know Epilogue.net is growing and working on publications of it's own, but they are decidedly anti-CG...) I'd be curious to find out (yes, and visit chuckle) those other communities that do such things for their members, for sure.

thanks
