Thanks very much for taking the time to explain some of the differences between the two programs. It is a very helpful explanation. It sounds like your saying after you make the “snapshot” and begin painting or whatever you can no longer rotate the image. Can you save the 3D file (the before “snapshot” file) and continue to manipulate it in 3D and take successive “snapshots? I’m very intrigued by your comments about the friendliness of the intuitive interface.

I am also very interested in animation! Gary and I talked about this before and he also suggested I try the demo’s. I have, so far, resisted because Windows (98) is so easily gummed up. I am considering going to Windows 2000 to help with this part of it and also to avoid Windows XP.

Thanks again and please keep posting these great images!
