Got my email this morning and was glad to see the site back. Just thought maybe it had went down for a time! Missed it, and like what it has become!!

Challenge me and I will try. Because If I should fail, failure also has a prize (Knowledge).

EDIT: Is it just me, or is the site REALLY slow?

Can be a bit slow when the news letter is sending should be better now.

I hope everything will be fine from now on.

So I type in "www.simplymaya.com" into my address bar and hit enter. Nothing. Hit F5 for refresh. Nothing. Try again 30 mins later. Nothing. Try again the next day. I get the "this domain is parked, bla, bla". Imagine how frightening it was.

I only found out today that SimplyMaya is still around and I'm very glad that it is.

Sorry, Chirone, I shouldnt have said that, sometimes i get a little paranoid. But I think, the final product of a civilization born millions or perhaps billions years ago, is here playing with us like toys, and it likes to do this kind of things.

About my entry Im sorry that people didnt know that more than 1 view was allowed, I didnt either, But to get an idea of an object , I think is better to have different views or a turntable animation.

My animations

My renders
