Topic awaiting preservation: Max Slop is getting there

Still working on the front door, but the first 3 are up:
Mapping Channels
Mapping Channels Decal
Mapping Rubik's with Channels

Soon I'm going to start babbling about procedurals and how to layer them up.

Next one isn't quite finished, but a good indication of my current direction. Still no front door because I'm lazy like that.

Slapping Instances

Oooh...tech slop for Max...this oughta be pretty cool.

Good going war, can't wait to see more.

Keep on truckin', Skaarjj.

Front door mostly done with a nudge from DL:
Max Slop

Still a little cleaning up to do here and there.
A little too tired to really say much else.

Keep it up!!!

Oh, I will. You know me when I get the bug.

I've got the next one mostly done, but having major server problems lately. I had to resort to using IE to upload via FTP - none of my other clients would connect. No idea if you can see it:
Keep as Sub-Map.

I'm going to truck right through the MatEd tutorials I have planned, then work through them to clean them up. So, there will be some minor holes and questions left unanswered for a bit.

Once I'm done with the MatEd tutorials, I'm not quite sure were to go next. I wouild like to dig into the curve editor, but I'm not sure how to handle showing actual animation just yet. Maybe constraints and doing creative rig things. Not really sure just yet.

Kids are fighting over school clothes. Time for some beat down.

WJ: kudos nice work

I'm starting to think that the thumbs are a bit much. I'm going to have to figure something out so that too much vertical space isn't taken up.

Kids have been monsters and the place is slightly trashed. To take a break, I wrote a quickie that gives a little peak into serious suckitude. This one will definitely need a little more beef.

Bump and Bake

:ring: :ring: :ring:
CSR: This is Deb. How can I help you?
Me: Deb? I don't think you can answer my questions. Can you put me through to Joey?
CSR: Joey is gone for the day.
Me: Okay, I'll try you, Deb. Been having problems with the webspace and FTP these past few days. I can't connect to squat. Was there another name change or something?
CSR: We changed it a few days ago. You should have received an e-mail about it. The new server is mail.this-n-that.com.
Me: Yeah, I got that e-mail, but that doesn't answer my quandry. I need to know about the webspace and the FTP server.
CSR: You have to change the SMTP and POP3 settings to mail.this-n-that.com in your options.
Me: Nevermind, Deb. I'll try to get Joey sometime in the next few days.

So I saunder into the office. Guess who's there? That right: Miss Deb. We are now face-to-face.

CSR: Did you get the server thing figured out?
Me: No.
CSR: Do you use Outlook or Outlook Express?
Me: ~rolls eyes~ I see Jason isn't busy. I'll go talk to him for a bit.

Jason was able to answer all but one of my questions. For the last one, I'll need to talk to Joey.

Anyways, there have been some massive server problems lately. As of earlier today, everything is running fine. In the next 2 weeks, everything will be moved over to a new name and new servers. Hopefully everything will be stable for a few months.

In other words, you should now be able to see what I've been up in the above links if you haven't been able to get to them. My apologies.
Then again, the URL will be changing soon.
Sometimes I wonder why I bother.

I have found 40x40 to be a perfectly good thumbnail size, FWIW.

I was thinking 50x50, but I'll take your damn advice... again.
Won't be long before I have to ace the thumbs altogether.

Added 3 new deals at the bottom. Two quickies with a shark, and the third is a bit longer with the shark.
