I have to admit, the Carrara forum often provides some of the most pure form of reading entertainment I've seen since... the Poser forum.

I see Blender has infiltrated the ranks here too, lobbying hard to win over voters with that irresistable catchword, FREE.  Amazing not every single animation studio in the world has opened their eyes to this marvelous tool by now, and started saving themselves hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of dollars a year, rather than supplying silly ol bloated Maya licenses to their seats.  I'll never understand it, since everything Maya can do, blender can do just exactly the same.
