If it's going to be in a paper format (which, natch, it should be), I'd suggest following the presentation format used in the Photoshop WOW books: step by step, good visuals for every step, screen captures of any settings used to create whatever effect is being pursued. A lot of us, even after four versions of this software, are still learning the basics (I know, I know, such a slow learner...), and even though the interface has gotten easier to handle, it's still pretty daunting the first time out. This was the biggest thing that annoys the hell out of me about the Mortimer book. He doesn't explain anything with any thoroughness. He just presents his weird little... whatever they are..., shows us how to make them (Oh yeah, like any of that stuff is useful...), praises his "master users", and expects us to fill in the blanks while not giving us much to work with. I hope that whoever takes on this challenge looks at the Mortimer book and sees it as a shining example of what not to do. Insofar as the posts here, I think all of this is an excellent start to putting together something. Now, who wants to pick up that ball and start running? I'd be delighted to submit my animation work, along with tutorials on how to get there. I'm sure others around here would be happy to contribute their knowledge on making clothing and creating deformers. There's a wealth of knowledge sitting right here, gang. Who wants to get it all moving?
