[Bf-docboard] Blender 2.40 QuickStart Guide (FINAL)

[Pierre-Luc Auclair]

Here's a third one. It's better than the two others I think. I must have 
been in need of a break today, I spent a lot of time non stop...

I kind of liked the first one, (and it fit with Blender's colors) but 
people complain that it takes too much ink (wth??). I mean come on, it's 
just *one* page, you won't empty your printer with it.. The second one I 
guess I was just a bit too fast on it, I was in ego reaction mode.

I stick to the placement of blender's logo, it's not hidden at all (try 
printing it). I chose flat colours to keep filesize low.

I think this one fits for all purposes.

Give me your opinions.
