I've decided to move a couple of the other backroom tutorials into the formal area and I may also post all my magazine articles that I wrote for the Renderosity magazine there.  We'll see what kind of time I have.

Articles for "Renderosity Magazine"???????

Where when this magazine?

Very cool thanks!

Nice explosion, Brian!

I remember the Azchip tutorial for RDS, in fact I remember an animated version of this explosion. Thanks, Kixum! I'm curious about this "Renderosity Magazine" too. How many articles do you wrote?

The Renderosity magazine was published for about a year (I think).  I had a column in it which I wrote for.  I think I'm in every issue but I can't remember anymore.

Then we went to an online magazine format thingamabob and I wrote a column in that thing for a long time (called it Kixums corner).

I have all that stuff somewhere.  It wouldn't be worth a book but it would be worth posting here somehow.  The tutorials section makes the most sense.  From what I perceive, users don't go to the Carrara back room (as a case in point, how many of you guys even notice we have a link to it here in this forum?).  When I was mod, Renderosity built backroom space here where mods could setup little weird work areas for weird stuff so I setup a little workshop in there.  Fortunately, it survives but nobody goes there or uses it.  So, the stuff that lives there is sort of lost (on a side note, the sub community is also sort of a lost aspect to the site).

However, users do click on that tutorials link at the top of the page and they do go and look at that stuff (it's easy to find and people go and look at it because they want to learn and what do you do when you want to learrn?  Go and click on the tutorial link duh).

So, maybe I'll just move a lot of my junk into the tutorial pages here at Rendo.  I loved writing those magazine articles but there's no real sensible way to setup a "magazine" just for Carrara here at Rendo.

A long time ago, I was working on a page where all the important links in this entire forum were organized into categories and could be used for new users to study and learn and interact with but the project became way to big way to fast.  There is an enormous amount of amazing knowledge hidden in this forum (I've been reading it now for almost 9 years).

Anyway, all this rhotoric from me is fine if I truly take the time to post all my stuff.
