Hi my name is Bill(started here as Primaltruck). I am an old hippy from the santa cruz mountains.I live with my wife and kids Alice and Chris..we also have 2 other kids Jason and leah, that are married and live elswhere..we live in the redwood forest with a spring and waterfall on our property and about 700 2nd growth redwoods..My artwork is definetly inspired by were i live and my family.My daughter(Alice) being a Tatoo artist and wife being my worst critic.she knows me and knows how to tell me when something doesnt look right without getting under my skin..Alice likes all art so she always says good things that help inspire me and i try to do the same for her..if you look at my rendorosity gallery you will see that i had a pretty rough start and took a year or so to get the hang of 3D art as i have always scetched and painted and created..But learning how to deal with something new is always an adventure..and its been a lot of fun and i have made alot of friends along the way.I mostly use Bryce and Poser and Photoshop on a Dell PC..and plan on getting Vue in the near future..and...I couldnt talk about art with out mentioning Dudley Wade(Prog)Who was one of my first friends here and a heck of a great teacher and i think i learned more from his advise and studying his art than anything else....I dont think i have a style,except that my style is in doing something different when i can think of it!and the longer i post art in these galleries the more i realize that its not really about the art but about the friendships made....getting better with our art is just icing on the cake..I have also been a musician all my life and have played guitar for 30 some odd years..Loving everything from Mel Torme to Jimi Hendrix to all the great new music i hear..some Favorites..Frank Zappa,Stevie Ray Vaughn,Beatles,Pink Floyd,Yes,Scott Henderson,Steve Vai,Joe Satriani,Steve Morse,Nuno Bentencourt,Paul Gilbert,Vinnie Moore,Frank Gambale,Al Dimeola,Les Paul,Chet Atkins,Speedy wes,Jimmy Brynt,Barney Kestle,Charlie Byrd,and many more..i have been posting at renderosity mostly and at Dreamslayerart,Tapestry of dreams,Innertraveler,artzone,renderotica and 3DCommune..not all at the same time...lol...I am very easy to get along with and treasure the friendships made here..I am not afraid to speak up for what i believe in ,am strictly non violent,love nature,and always looking for fun and a reason to celebrate life...so dont be afraid to say hello or ask for help..I dont bite that hard...Love and Peace and Respect.

I think you're correct in your assessment of the slow connection vs slow site problem. I periodically have problems with slow-loads even at work, and that's a government network, not dialup. That aside, I think this robot magazine is the best one yet...that li'l tin gal's got a really classy chassis.

Excellent!! I love the cartoon fx!!

I'm sure your robot friends would be in line with the rest of us trying to capture you, if you tried to leave Bill. I did make a comment about the speed and part finished issues from the transition on your thread, and it is still at times, painfully slow, so goodness knows what it must be like on dial up. I love what you've done here Bill. I love the theme. It's an absolute classic Sir! Steve :o)

Don't leave we need you. Great image. I have dial up and it does take time. Not a great deal of time, but time. I usually have a 46.6 connection. I've learned to live with it. BTW - great image. Love the robot

Amazing work, Bill!! (When I first saw the 'title' of this piece, I kept humming the old, Cyndi Lauper song, 'She-Bop'. WINK). HANG IN THERE!!

I hear your frustration. I know the site does get slow at certain times of the day for me as well. Your art is needed here for those of us who learn by seeing and get motivation by seeing what others do. For our sake, I hope you will stick it out. Your image is fun.

Hey, Bill! The site is running great for me and it's more vibrant and warmer than ever with community spirit! I'm never here anymore and that's why! LOL!! I've had several discussions with fellow friends here about all the new changes and the path the site seems to be taking, and it just doesn't have that cool vibe it used to offer the members. Perhaps it's shell shock from the change, or maybe there are so many little problems that add up to be one big one. I'm on broadband cable and I honestly haven't seen any huge difference in speed since the change. I agree with those who lend a sympathetic ear to your conundrum, and it would really suck if you left, Bill! Perish the thought, but I've had the same thoughts for other reasons which stem down to the new changes. I might post an image again finally in a week or so, but it's just too easy to fall through the cracks here these days. It's no fun working for weeks on an image if it's not viewed for varying reasons, and slow loading speed is definitely one of them. Great image, Bill, and I thhink I need a female robot! The human versions keep taking a dump on me! LOL!! Excellent work and hang in there, Man! It can only get better! Cough
MagikUnicorn
