That's so funny, as Simply 3D was our first experience in 3d... We also used the app suite to initially learn web design... haha... I used PhotoImpact back in the day, until I required easier to manipulate vectors, and that's when I started to explore Xara.... likened to Wings is straight forward.... just slightly different lol. But heck yeah, MG had it going on back in the day.... and for 3d font, Simply 3D was superb, in fact I think they started quite a thing for other apps to start in at such a small price point... opened up the market ... Cheers
