Carl's Corner :)

um not sure, just know it has render stages and you have to do the triangulate stage to be able to save.

back to Maya huh?

Okay I was about to upload some art to DeviantArt, so started reading the Submission policy agreement, keep getting to part 3 and thinking um? Really? Followed by wonder how many people really read this? This is just part 3 it goes on and on and it wouldn't surprise me if people skip down and just accept it.

a) to prepare and encode Artist Materials or any part of them for digital or analog transmission, manipulation and exhibition in any format and by any means now known or not yet known or invented;

b) to display, copy, reproduce, exhibit, publicly perform, broadcast, rebroadcast, transmit, retransmit, distribute through any electronic means (including analog and digital) or other means, and electronically or otherwise publish any or all of the Artist Materials, including any part of them, and to include them in compilations for publication, by any and all means and media now known or not yet known or invented ;

wow got my post on the DeviantArt Forums locked! One of the Admin put this "This Forum is for suggestions related to deviantART."

Would think me suggesting this in the Suggestion area :- Poll suggestion, How many people have read and understood the Submission Policy?

After reading the Submission policy agreement and deciding I'm 100% sure about it.

It got me wondering how many people really read the policy through?

And Does DeviantArt really need the following (which is just a small snippet from your submission policy Agreement)

3. License To Use Artist Materials. As and when Artist Materials are uploaded to the deviantART Site(s), Artist grants to deviantART a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to do the following things during the Term:

Would really be classed as a DeviantArt thing.. um.. Sent the guy that closed my thread a message politely asking him which thread I should post it under.

Hi Ahimsa

Steve - A friend who does 3d stuff for Stadium Shows told me not to waste my time on Blender

Bel - homework looking good and Deviant contract sounds terrible, if anyone read that they wouldn't be involved with them

Hi Ron

My nephew caught his hand in the chain/sprocket of his bicycle a couple of days ago. He is fine – just scratches. While in the hospital visiting him I noticed the security mirrors at the end of each hall. They were half spheres.
Do you think it would be possible to use something like this to make images for lighting environments?

Here is a better picture of one.

I think it would be most accurate zoom in on it all the way then step back until it just filled the view. It is plastic so would not weigh much. I have an old tripod I could mount it on.

Are you using it to make dynamic images......HDRIs???

I was just thinking out loud. I do not have any money left after I bought the training DVDs so I will not be doing it at all.

I will have to add pot belly if I'm not careful. I'm so skinny that if I gain just a few pounds I get pear shaped. No ice cream for me until after the holidays.

Same here. It's a pain to constantly have to take them off and put them back on while taking pictures. Take the off to look at the lcd - put them on to check the viewfinder - take the off to check the monitor.....

Thanks for the link. It's loading - I have dial-up so it will take a while.

That's how I read it but I'm even more confused after reading the FQA, mind the policy is 6 pages long I copied it just incase. Part 4 is just as confusing to me near enough, but then I'm not a lawyer.

already did sign up and paid for a 1/4 month account, although after reading that when I Was about to upload an image I am thinking thank god I didn't sign up for a year! If any of you want to read all of it let me know will post the whole thing, but like I said it's 6 pages long.

Um I hear you, Mum has bad eyesight and would love to be able not to wear glasses or to just have one's that don't cost the earth cause of how bad her sight is. But the thought of laser surgery to correct the eye sight she's like knowing me I will be the so many percent it doesn't work for/and or end up with more problems after.

As a smoker you can never claim to be fit but as I do hard labour to support my fine art habit and can walk 16 kilometres a day or spend ten hour lifting heavy weights I'm pysically strong with a high stamina level but it I sprinted I'd be gasping for breath thanks to smoking

Can't get broadband. I could get the satellite type but it's too expensive.

Are you a smoker Beliria? Have you ever smoked?

makes me not want to waste your time on trivial things and this is chalk art can be good though

okay Glasses but only when I watch TV or go to the Cinema, am only slightly short sighted.

Smoking nope, had chronic bronchitis as a child decided against taking up smoking.

As to the Deviantart site I'm not too sure, cause other sites similar don't have policies like that. It's just keywords get me on edge, royalty-free and sublicence etc.

Ah well I need food! Skipped breakfast and its now 1pm so yep food food food!!

Licking the screen on the snapshot of the chocolates doesn't work.. darn empty calories!
