Hi, I'm Dave :^)
I've learned that Art is 5% inspiration and 95% perspiration! I started CGA as a hobby early 2004. This site is huge, so if you have seen any of my material, then thank you for taking the time.
BIO:I'm a widowed Electronics and Software design Engineer living in Southern California, about 60 miles east of Los Angeles.
My late wife Robin.. passed in 2003 after 31 wonderfully married years, the last 7 of which Robin was in poor health. I miss my Babe so much...
I'm working with Poser5, Bryce5.5, Wings3D, PSP-10 and CorelPaint8.My mother (Elnor) is also on this site as Silkylady. If you get a chance, please drop by her gallery and see her work.
Finally, remember these words of wisdom:
1) Don't sweat the petty stuff and don't pet the sweaty stuff.2) If your only tool is a hammer then all your problems will look like nails.3) It's amazing what can be accomplished when one doesn't know what one can't do.4) Very few know how much one must know in order to know how little one really knows.5) Give a man fire and you heat him for awhile. Set a man on fire and he is heated for life.6) Complexity is a set of things that we figured how to do right, one built on top of the other, until failure is achieved.7) Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get.8) Marriage is a place where you can be wrong in ways you never thought possible.9) If a man speaks his mind in a forest and no woman hears him.. is he still wrong?10) If at first you don't succeed, then cover up all previous attempts that failed.
Please enjoy your visit! Dave :^)(AKA: 'davidoblad','DLO')

There's a movie (made in the 80's I believe) where NORAD nearly starts a war with Russia because they mistake Santa's sleigh as an incoming attack. Don't remember the title though - sigh. Very clever stuff. Merry Christmas.

Now this is very funny Dave, but you will have the little ones up all night searching the skies for falling Deer and oh, forgive me, Red Material. I know I'll be in for a session of mixed up Sugar Plumbs and nightmares. It's going to be hard to beat this render for next Xmas. It will be fun trying. I want to wish you, and everyone out there in the whole world, a very calm nights sleep, and a great New Year ahead. LOVE YA LOTS...Huggs...Silkylady...

Very funny idea Dave and way to bring it to life. I'm afraid Santa had better have a ejector seat on board and that better be a chute behind him instead of presents or he's a goner. lol Great job and seeing you post after so long is a great Christmas present.
