blender 2.40 release

blender 2.40 was released today. There are tons of great features and improvements. Thanks to all of the developers who worked on this.

hmm… little bit confusing

I have just a few nitpicks with the performancing Firefox extension. Starting a new post is not quite as intuitive as it should be.  The editor kept  pulling up  my last post as if I wanted to edit it. It would be much better to start with a blank page and a fresh post. Perhaps I’m simply doing something wrong, or missing something obvious in the interface? The editor seems to lag a little bit behind my typing. This can obviously be a little bit annoying, especially since I don’t type that fast. I’ve seen this mentioned elsewhere, but focus should definitely begin in the title field and then tab over to the body of the editor. Overall, pretty cool though.

first post from performancing

Ok, the performancing firefox extension is pretty cool. This is my first post trying it out. It seems to be very simple and easy to use. The workflow is very nicely integrated into the way I would like to blog. Will it stand the test of time? We shall see…

back to basics

I’m trying to learn how to actually animate the things I model in Blender. This is my first attempt at a bouncing ball.
