Looks good. July may coincide with Siggraph though. -Mark

Well, I figured that Siggraph will be attended by the Pros and that this festival is geared towards general fans and the public. Thx. for the reminder though.

I started to ask a bunch of questions regarding the festival, when I checked the front page again. THEN I noticed the little 'enter' text near the bottom. I would make that LARGER. I thought there wasn't anything else beyond that at first. On the 'support materials' page, you have a very limited list of programs. Are they sponsors perhaps? Or, is this an 'open' festival? I, for one, use Carrara to do most of my animations, and I'm just getting started with Maya. Neither is listed. With the 3DXPO, is there a way to sell multiple copies, or only a single print? Can we offer our pieces to you electronically? Maybe offering an on-site printing option for people like R'osity had at the Dragon-com in Atlanta? The web-site seems to be very complete, I just am someone who likes to ask alot of anal questions. ;> I'll be putting it on my calender, and hopefully I'll be able to make it!

Will resize ENTER. I listed the programs I use but am non-partisan about listing others. Pleae give me an email listing your faves and I will include. Multiple copies are fine. You may submit a low-rez for adjudication (it is a gallery showcase and we are not accepting everyone due to size limitations). I have no problem with electronic hi-rez once accepted. I can print on my Epson 2200 but I would probably increase the $25 Renderfest Fee to $35 to account for paper/ time/ person-power to print. All great ideas. Thank you very much. JG
