<DIV dir=ltr>Roger, I'm appreciative of your taking time to respond.<br>I will take note of the tutorials, but everybody has their <br>optimum learning styles.<br><br>Actual in-person tutelage would yield the best results for me.<br>While I am a technologist and daily laud the potential power<br>of technology, I also acknowledge that old fashion apprentice<br>style transfer of skills and knowledge will always have their<br>honored place.<br><br>If you're in The Bay, I could surely welcome you to the USF campus<br>and lunch, in exchange for your tutelage.<br><br>RC</DIV>

<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>
