Instant breakfast? Incredible blimp? Inspirational breasts? Informal bullshit? Insane banners? Oh...I know...secret code between you and MadYuri...oh, hohoho!!....snicker...(I smell hidden meanings...)...

The person never asked how much, it is a "generic" question and I gave an honest answer according to the industry/career standards presented to us in a top notch digital graphics school...this is what is trendy and used by the big banana's... Hey look...get yourself a course, even just one..become a student..get big discounts on software of the finest...besides, you practically need school just to learn stuff like 3DMax anyways....anyone that learns this baby on their own I really need to kiss their feet for their awsome brains and intuitive skills and loooong time they have to sacrifice for this perplexity of self teaching!! Don't get me wrong, it's easy to use, it's just that there is SO MUCH everywhere to use and to remember and it can be an overwhelming new world once your in max...darn modifiers alone can make your hair all funny...

............coming soon.......yup..........heard a rumor that metacreations is on a fast comeback.........hoooey! .................. See.....that's all you need........lots'a dots and some versatile "imagination" ;-)

3DMax is the industry standard now, trust me, if you learn the in's and out's of max, everything else will fall into place...Maya and Max are not far apart, but studio's still cater more towards Max which is moving UP incredibly faster. It's because Max has so mucho versatility and is compatible with so much else out there. Mind you, there is also Lightwave and then Rhino and although there is nothing wrong with these cool apps, why not start out with the max??? This is speaking mostly 3D "creating" by "building" your very 'own' and/or "animating" your very own ORIGINAL stuff. ***If you want to make 3D pictures or do mucho quality artwork/postwork and photo style masterpiecs, you should be smooching heavily with Adobe Photoshop 5.5, 6, or 7 which cannot be beaten at this time in the 2D or 3D world. If your into dishing out awsome 3D pics and even making derivative works from already existing creations which appears to be welcome and allowed in these huge online worlds of 3D fun, then you really should be looking into Poser 3, 4, and maybe 5 depending on further EULA and bug indifferences; you really don't need a lot more other than something to aid you in making cool realistic textures so you too can have your own dazzling style and have some money set aside so you can buy all the obj. files you'll need to make your very own marketable product over time; although this can be done with just poser and a cool "gotta have" idea. Cheers ;-)

Hey...I know...maybe if you start it in OT they will move it to the poser forum!! Yeah baby!! ;-)

Cool...thanks much...now I can gather some inspiration..;-)

No way...lil' sweet chocolates just don't ever tell a fib!

Make it sound like bonbon never worked or something...sheesh...she deserves more credit...from what I knew of the lil chocolate talent, she always worked, fact is she had like two jobs and still hung out here...and posted here...so why all this job talk in regards to her...

I miss the little chocolate...:(

While your at it...anybody know what happened to bonbon?? She happened to inspire me an awful lot with her work... (weird...artist's getting abducted...maybe forum aliens walk among us....?)...I hear twilight zone music now...oh..oh...*

I uploaded the picture via my website for my homepage here...that seems to work until this can be resolved... Peace and goodness to you ;-)

Well...I thought I would put my "okay" on this thread too...may I make a suggestion?? Maybe for this kind of forum...perhaps the members can somehow "host" the material they wish to share themselves?? Somehow?? Think it be worth it? I haven't read all the above...so apologies if this thought has already been processed...and also this one...I think it be way cool to have a forum like this with so many awsome animation tools out there making the big time...even 3Dmax itself is one big wingding program with this feature....but the biggest baby right now seems to be "after effects"...oh...and don't forget "flash" itself....kinda surprised we don't already have a forum dedicated to this software alone considering how BIGTIME it is...on the 3D scene... Cheers and be well.

THank you very much Tammy ;-)

The silly picture keeps loading as..."Userpete%5F.jpg" instead of what actual name I load it as...tried to change the name...no work...:(

I attempted to update my "homepage" today with a picture...did it twice...all I get is a little red x after...wondering if it is a temporary glitch or something I am doing... Thanks for your time and good day.
