Hi I see what you mean by good beer , one bottle = 3 US beer at least thats what I found when I was in the states. Saying that it only takes 3 pints to get me under the table anyway!! glad to here you had a good New Year Dave

Hi V3 comes with the ability to use V2 body at least thats what I'm banking on or I've just waisted $5 (no V2 per say apart from v3) Dave

Hi looks good but how does the selected thumb (puffer fish) apply to the 3d image? dave

Hi Aspen was sold at daz as a type of werewolf character who walks on her toes as i recall perhaps this has something to do with the problem. I seem to remember there being an extra foot morph or something? Dave BTW I have her but have not used her yet

Hi nice face grey cat but it's the eyes...those eyes..ose ey........zzzzzz. sorry 'bout that hypnotised by beauty! try to get rid of the stare a bit. I like V3 (but then i've no other v's to compare with her) I will admit that I prefere possette's body shape to what I have seen of v2. and yes those !!! pose files are annoying thinking of getting pboost after Christmas to sort these out. Dave

Btw before I got carried away I was refering to the pic in my gallery 'stormy seas' not a plug lol. Dave

Hi I think I used the same waves (duplicated) but moved th cliping bracket up then ofset it (up or forward a little) and textured it with a cloud tex. just some thoughts. Another one some of the latest research into sharks suggests that most shark attacks are due to the shark being curious about the victim , basically he would like to find out whats this dark shape is (one reason why totaly black/dark wetsuits are not a good idea) the unfortunate part is sharks don't have hand so use their teeth. So causing damage to the 'victim' I actualy think that animals are more intelligent that we 'superior' humans give credit for. Dave

Hi Recently a friend told me catlin that if you read the terms/law/rules regarding tv licences it applies to anything capable of recieving tv pictures ie. comps with or without (easy to install one) tv cards video players etc. the only exclusion being mini/hand held tv's if you have a tv licence. I actually prefer the BBC to it independent channels except they don't put ER, West Wing etc on Dave

Hi You could try the humpback whale at toucan (http://www.toucan.co.jp) try the aquarium. In my opinion however the best whale was the humpback from Mitch (see image in my gallery) he however closed his site due to piracy If anyone knows Mitch perhaps they could get a message to him he seemed a very interesting guy (unfortunately I do not have a great(any) command of German. btw the whale at toucan can also be found at Planit3d.com Dave

Hi Well said Bryster I'm going to have the wonderful experience of driving on the wrong side of the road in Orlando next week. People overtaking on the inside when you want to pull over etc. I like having 2 taps in the bathroom except when the pipe to the cold explodes on me like it did 6 weeks ago (just like in a cartoon!) And Drac trust me there are worst things in this country. Dave btw did I tell you I was getting married over there.

Hi I would just like to add that I agree with ernyoka1. Once a discussion degenerates into name calling then the person doing the calling rapidly loses respect. Comments whether true or not like 'ex-army ranger like me' are only there to intimidate people like any other loud mouth or bully. I too query the amount of time you have had to practice with P5, I have had nearly 2 years with p4 and still don't know everything and P5 is a more complex animal. I also have dial up and have had few problems with downloads the only serious one Ihad was with the Mil-dragon and that was when they were changing the web site over a holiday weekend. A phone call (I live in the UK BTW so no free call rates) so again a Phone call was all that was needed to fix the problem! I will say that if you are trying buy $1200 stuff at one time then I'm sorry tough! try one item at a time see if you like what you find if not then no big deal. these are as always my own opinions and I will be expecting a knock in the door from you and your 'ranger' buddies in the next few days! Dave

Hi Go for it Zai the Dragon's one of my favorite models. Well worth it at any price. Dave

Hi went and got kromekats tree on friday and had a look at the tute. so thanks again.

Hi Thanks folks I'm going to see if the c-card can stretch to KromKat's trees but I'll also have a look at the tutorials. One thing I was wondering tho' was if I did as shadowdragonlord suggested and used a 2d pic which do you all think would give a better effect in bryce flat,concave or I was thinking a convex setup. Dave (thanks again)

Hi Having looked at the images as have been posted above, and please correct me if I'm wrong, but the theme was winter memories. I would actualy have prefered ornlu's stick man over any of the others. Now before I get incinerated let me explain! I am not trying to say that the other images are not excellent and no disrespect for the hard work and talent of all of the others. 1) the dragons."I like dragons but doesn't imho make a memory perhaps if the dragon had been dreaming the image perhaps. 2)Woodhurst's I like it but how can you have a future memory? (btw I also personally dislike the 'blade runner' style future) 3) I like it almost sureal the way a memory is sometimes. 4)too sureal for my taste 5)sorry just don't quite get what it's suposed to be. 7) & 8) dislike winter sports (sports in general) especialy ski board (surf/snow board culture) but with a little work the stick men could be the cards we used to make when we were at school for our mothers. a true memory that most of us share. these are just my thoughts and the first time I have seen these images. Dave
