[ QUOTE ] SF is one of the most expensive places to live on this planet. It is utter nonsense to suggest that Irvine rent is on average 800 bucks pricier than San Francisco. That simply isn't true I'm afraid. And no, silicon valley is not San Francisco! [/ QUOTE ] Dude, don't even kid yourself. San Fran isn't even close to…
i haven't purchased a new system in quite sometime- last one was a single core unit. i've been researching the pros/cons of different components and haven't seemed to find any info on what is a good system for a 3d artist? i currently run a dell at work and it's a pos. i've put together a personal unit over at ibuypower.…
Thor is modeling a NM and AO which are currently in season. He comes in at about 8000 triangles and one 2048x2048 which will include the hair alpha. Soon he will also have a hammer and high frequency detailing. Thanks for all the encouragement so far! I do hope to rig and pose him and maybe add some rainfall post.
Simple suggestion: Remove the splash page, its pointless.

Aha! I knew that someone else had played Planescape:Torment! Seconded and thirded! The art direction and character development in that game were second to none. The world really felt alive, like it existed in some alternate dimension that was stuck at 800*600.
Bobo: oh ffs, I didn't even notice that til now. =P That will be turned off. Thanks. =] As for the animated avatar... There have been people that have wanted them for a looong time now (hell if I know why...) so, since you can now host and update them on your own and the size limit is set to 80x80, I am going to let them…
We we're given what I believe is an excellent deal from Artificial. From the research I did in comparison between features/price Reality was the best option. We were SDK testers for a couple of months but once the licensing was going to be cut I contacted Artificial and they gave us the quote. Your correct, we're not a…

hawken, a 'wog' is a term generally used towards people of (but not limited to) a European Ethnic origin. Its kinda hard to explain really, though it has become more of a genre of people. You probably wouldn't get them in Japan I guess. But the best way to understand is to watch the film "The Wog Boy" starring Nick…
This is probably a "who the hell is that guy" post. Anyhow, I wanted to say thanks to r13 for hooking me up with the rest of you that were there wednesday night. I had a great time at that place we went for drinks, enough to not remember exactly where it was, but still managed to stumble back to my hotel downtown. For…
