We've put together a technical artist oriented guide to GDC for our members, I thought Polycount could find it useful as well (and despite my encouragement for it to Adam, PC isn't really doing any official or semi-official GDC presence... hopefully next year). Here's the Table of Contents, links will take you to TAO.
this is the results to a survey done on the cg industry to find out which software developers are really meeting their customers needs. http://www.cgenie.com/cgenie-content/104-cg-community-survey-upgrades-09.html Have you guys seen this surveys results? do you think it realisticly portrays the state of software in the 3D…

Hey everybody, figured it was about time i stopped lurking around here and actually join-up proper. the quality around this place is just rediculous but here's my first measly contribution: GA.org comicon entry, James Gordon all gear'd up to handle Gotham now that Bats is dead (new bats don't count)
