I am very new to this site, and have spent a few hours just looking around. I need to know what program I need to use for certain tasks.

A group of others and I are creating an MMO, and I am somewhat in charge of graphics. This includes all of the 2D sprites and especially the 3D Objects and Items. I also will need to create the game characters.

So, which program would be best for 3D Model Making?

Alternatively I could use somebody who already knows how to use a 3D Graphics program.
