Thanks for the input guys. I know both of you through your work and I value your opinions. I agree with what you both said and it is the common sense conclusion that I came to before I asked for input. I just thought that someone might have some physical experience with MODO. I actually did just find the Luxology download link while browsing CGTalk. I like SILO a lot too and see much potential there. Thanks again for your valuable insights. I'm sure we'll be connecting again on the various forums. :^)
