Hi Mark : Again forgive my heavy editing of your post , in order to save time . I won't even begin to respond to Aidan's post , but will chime in with you and say "yes , yes , and yes !" . > We users can wait and sit back, or do something about it - we > can't force RS. > Mark H I partially agree . We can't force RS of course , but we can perhaps influence them a little bit , and we can certainly change things for the better . You have changed things many times with your selfless efforts and sharing , and I implore _ALL_ RS users to stop and think about what they can bring to the party . Last year there was talk of a Dynamic Realsoft Manual , where we could add tutorials as we go , but that is not going to happen soon. Blender has a Wiki site , but it is a hackers paradise and problem- atic . We _CAN_ however continue to write tutorials and give examples , and share our knowledge gained . To teach is to learn too . There are many selflessly giving users here who have been changing things for years and years , and is in fact the whole spirit behind RS . Without the generous user community that RS has , RS is nothing but an app that only very very advanced users can even begin to attempt to use . RealSoft may count on "us" as much as we count on "them" . My "attacking" is merely a weak attempt at drawing attention to the fact that we need much , much more sharing in order to get non-advanced users up to speed in advanced 3D animation , with RS . All it's going to take is for advanced users , to sit down and share their knowledge with simple easy to follow HTML web pages , and for those that come here to this list seeking answers , to write those an- swers down in HTML once they have been received , as a way of saying "Thanks" . To put it simply , this list is an Abyss ... same with IRC . Only the Realsoft Forum saves info for the future users to view . Only tutorials created by RS users make the learning of advanced tools and methods an easy and enjoyable experience . studio www.niagara.com/~studio www.studiodynamics.net
