Oh, bloodsong ... ouch, that hurts! I relate! I'm still compiling my sample lessons to upload today. The marketing and self-promotion classes will formally be up by summer ... the lesson plan for the commercial school is still being put together, as is some of the sample classes. To show good faith and appreciation for your interest (and because you are a Renderosity regular) please feel free to e-mail me and I can give you some pointers and a few places you can start for your self promotion. Anyone else reading this message is of course welcome to e-mail me as well. Sorry this took a few days. The storm took out my phone lines for a few days. Pacbell finally fixed it. Keep checking in there will be more added constantly. Good luck with your hard drive Bloodsong, a word of advice on backing up. You need only back-up your downloaded props (etc.) documents and creations you've made, bookmarks, browser plug-ins (and passwords) and a hiearchy file of your hard drive. The programs should be installed clean from the install disks. This is if you don't have an elaborate backup system. It may be obvious, but I've re-built several machines from friends and that has saved us all headaches through the years. Peace Boni
