Re: How Not to Be Professional
Ryan, Its great to see you posting here. Your story is unfortunately all to common in the games industry, abusive incompetent "idea guys" fooling young artists/programmers into working for free on thier never ending ego projects. The more word we can get out about these sort of situations so people know what to look for… -
Re: Disgruntled Ex-GameStop Employee Takes it to YouTube

Re: Need foliage expert, my tree normals look terrible!
Hi, thanks for this - yeah my history does seem to be a problem, I'm not great at keeping it clean, is there anything I need to do specifically or just freeze transformations and delete all extra nodes in outliner?

Re: Dad needs help with Christmas
If you cannot afford Photoshop, Jasc's Paint Shop Pro is a decent clone, and is just under $100 as I recall. As many others have stated, a Wacom Tablet is really a fantastic item.

Re: Bill Gates: Better than Batman? (Large image warning)
the blind, uninformed cynical Billy G hating in this thread blows my mind. Are you guys even bothering to read about the gates foundation? "He's just throwing money at charity" is such an understatement of the reality of the gates' philanthropic work, you're just highlighting your own ignorance in bright neon colors. And… -
