I don't have a problem signing out of my computer, but signing out of the site. and what do you do if you go to show somebody something at work on their computer, (Like I allready have) but then whenever they go to the site, they are signed in as you. There isn't any button or icon anywhere on the site where you can log out if you want when you are finnished? Thanks,
Brian

hehehe nice...

You should make the fire a lot bigger at the end point where the tree is at... now it just looks like a straight line...

and about the names... Since Speedy is your temp name, when youre done, PM Kevin or one of the admins and they can transfer your post count to your brian_ellebracht name ...that is, if they want to user added image

one suggestion:

go home and copy the simply maya cookie to a floppy... come back to work and then paste in the cookies folder by overwriting it over the existing cookie... should work

Thanks guys. I am using Maya's render, with quite a few different lights, the back light, the fire alone takes 3 different lights, and a couple of point lights, to make it look like the fire is giving off light. Its all about light centric light linking. Well guyz,Hate to say this, but I don't have very much else to do on this project. there is ALLWAYS room for improvement, as you know, but I have a few other things to take care of (I heard that WETA is going to start reviewing app's on January 8th) I am going to try to finnish my Matchmoving demo by then. ANd, I also got my hands on a copy of AI Implant, very very similar to Massive (what I think Massive was built off of) So I have alot of experimenting to do. BUt I am still going to work on my fire, and come up with a few final shots for my entry. How do you think it is so far?? I estimate I am going to put about 5-6 more hrs in it then I will be done. THanks for all of your replies and help,
Brian
