SewerRat... I totally agree with you about a Poser/Bryce and possibly a Poser/Max plugin. If this forums revamp is successful we may even help influence the situation with Meta. I think we should get more into that in the near future. Maybe do some form of campaign. Animated gif's are cool. I used to do stuff similar on an old Amiga with .iff files... Peter...Many thanks for your offer. It sounds like you will be a very valuable resource. There are a lot of programs in your list that I have never used and would have a difficult time helping people with. If you monitor the animation board regularly please feel free to answer queries regarding the software you know. If Anyone wants to write a tutorial of two or a review of a piece of software, hardware or books on animation please do. We will find the space to include it in the up and coming '3D Animation Resource Center'. Thank you for responding. I hope to see you all on the 3D Animation forum soon... Colm...:)
