And another thing!
I just need to say that I really would be desperate in some ways if not for this community.
Because since I finished school I have NO ONE to talk with about technical matters and art related technology. The people in my personal life just are very different from me in terms of personal interests.
I belong to one other forum community, and I lurk in several more. But I never see the kind of immediate feed back that I usually get here, and that I see others get here too.
Even on topics not on soft made by planetside! I would probably be lost if I did not have the resources of the people here. They guid me to info I need when I need it. OR they just flat out provide an answer. Its completely priceless.
I pay what I regard as a significant fee to be a member of another site. And while the primary service there is great, the forum part (the part Im taking about of these forums) is terrible. I was actually very shocked by it, because this community is my point of reference.
Ok , Im just happy right now because I made a big step forward in Maya. And I never would have developed an interest in Maya, or 3D at all, if not for TG2 and you guys. Then I felt this strange and uncontrollable desire to say thanks.
