Hi Neil : ... and all the best in 2006 to you and yours !
OK , let me ask you this ... is there not a single thing about what you do that could go into an online tutorial ? Let's face it , not that many of us know a dime about 'rendering for print' , right ? Do you know anything on this topic (Yes is the obvious answer) ? OK , so share it !!! Give it up people !!! No mercy , no bull , just give up to the community what skills or knowledge you have worth sharing . Seriously , there may be several people out there that could very much use the knowledge to get started on their own Realsoft rendering projects . studio www.niagara.com/~studio www.studiodynamics.net > A personal view. > > My wish list for RS is that I want to know everything that Vesa knows and I > want to know it now.
