<DIV>Do you know that there are free tutorials for Blender on CGGraphics.com, I think. Since you get on the Blender web site you should be able to find them if I got the web site wrong. Some of the tutorials are fee and can be downloaded. I don't have an internet hookup so I do all my net work on the College Computer internet system. I am learning a lot using those tutorials. You can listen to them and watch them over and over and learn more.<span class=HOEnZb><font color=#888888><br><br>Roger</font></span>
