READ THE FAQ!

Also, take advice from your own signature, don't TRY to look at the FAQ, DO look at the FAQ!

*long exaggerated sigh*

April 02 is fairly recent, I admit... but I don't think I ever asked a question that was answered in the faq. Then again, I came into the FFF with experience on Photoshop, After Effects, Maya 3 and 4, etc...

I don't know what all of you are fussing about.
I mean, it's a legitimate question ... right?


Along the same lines, does anyone know a program that can/will . . . . . .

* Develop a concept story for me

* Write my script

* Draw my storyboards

* Compose my original music

* Sew my costumes

* Make a saber hilt for me (make that several hilts)

* Create every last CGI effect my mind can think up

* Implant instant knowledge of all software programs without me having to take advantage of 18 years of schooling and actually READING a book/tutorial and/or without me having to take away from my busy hammock-time to do any RESEARCH whatsoever

* Come up with all of my Character names



and lastly . . . . . . . . .


* Film, composite and edit my film for me?




I figure that this is the Forum to ask ... THANKS FELLAS. grin

No, albo, there isn't. Maybe you could do one in flash or even hand animate one using Illustrator but that would be just as much work. Of course, there's the key-phrase right there: work.

I'm only just now beginning to make heads and tails out of Blender piecing together bits and pieces of information off of every single tutorial I've been able to find for it. The only thing you can do is keep at it until some of it starts to make sense.

What I did was create my own help file of what I could figure out from the tuts. Like I do this to get a point, do this to make a line between them, this to select a point, etc. It's like putting together a very large and thourghly confusing puzzel that slowly begins to make sense. Sort of. Anyway, good luck.

Thanks Various for your honest answer to an honest question.

I wish I could help albo but I don't use Blender. You can bet that I will not insult you regardless.

If only I could be within mouth reach of an individual whom gives these kind of replies. If we are not allowed to ask questions and all of the answers are in the FAQS section then the forum should be shut down. I never ask questions for this very reason. It seams as though folks are sitting on the "ready to insult" button as soon as a newbie submits a post. Climb off of your imaginary horses because that is all they are, imaginary.

It seems to me as though there are some overly sensitive people who cannot recognize
some harmless teasing when they see it.

SHEESH . . . at least SOME people figured out the humor. wink

It seems that some of us think that we are funny. I have read many of your replies, 99.9% are not funny.

It didn't help albo and he didn't laugh. Someone should start a joke thread for the less sensitive folks. This way these threads can be used to help people when they ask for it.

Great come back though but typical.

Do I seem funny?....Who do I sound like?..Do you feel like you are looking in the mirror? Maybe I can find your sensitive spot.
