That is exactly what God said when he made it.

Frank,

Losing the Pacific Ocean is careless, but misplacing the whole of Australasia is criminal!

I think sticking Earth inside a nebula is probably far worse a crime!

This is great! I only just noticed this thread...
You can use any picture you want, like this one: an advertisement
for a carrot scraper (haha)

and you get this strange texture

I think your file is a shortcut/link rather than a 3dfile.

Hi Norman,

If you right click the link and select save target, then open the file from the folder where you saved it. It will open. The error message you received it due to Xara3D attempting to open the file from your temporary internet files.

Oh that workks as long as the name has no spaces or strange characters in it. If it has, you have to download it first and then open it , if it has a
regular name with no spaces or strange characters you can open it
immediately.
I have the same problem para.
