Dennis You picked the right person to lead the assault!!! She makes Rambo and Arnold gasp "WHAT WAS THAT?!" (devoted ana admirer) I'm curious about Illustrator also for the same reasons. What about file conversion part of Illustrator? Corel's is pretty handy but I sure could do w/ out the…
Greg Splain "Accom- \WSD/XL"!! Sounds exotic! Is it wrist mounted, dash mounted or is it gonna be one of those rack thingies?

Scanners
Message #159226
Kevin I've suddenly decided that I can't live w/o a scanner any longer and must have one. This thought has taken root to the point that I dream of purchase and study Computer shopper cover to cover (then roll it into a firelog and burn it) ! The frustrating part…

David Sorry for the late reply….Been busy. Rutger seems to be kind of putin' on the pounch a little in Split second! He wears some kind of Elvis-style-beltbuckle-like field web belt type apparatus(or maybe it's a tummy shaper). How was he in Hitcher? In split second there were both gratuitous…

Import Strata Pro (Mac)
Message #156927

Hey, Guys I'm comming in late on this thread……Blood on walls….Aim….Clean floor, only blood on walls!!!…..THIS SOUNDS LIKE THE DOOM 2 FORUM!!

Message #154203
Ted Would it be possible to see your model? Did you model it in 3ds? I'd like to see what Viewpoint could do w/ a classic rod from say ..the Big Daddy Roth era!! (I'm sure they couldn't see that from their point of view.) Thanks, Gary
Bob If you guys plan to keep this up could you please change the field to something slightly different? I've got 72 msgs and can only access 55. I'm not sure what to do to remedy this. Bummer! The last few I've manually placed!! The sector that has your msg's…

Greg I also read it as a high schooler and it added to my feelings for architecture(not the part of blowing up any creations or anything)
Greg Is the film a regular (for the silver screen) or interactive(nudge, nudge)? Gary
Murph I don't have the experience to answer you but I wanted to ask if, when your client got the write error msg, he didn't just exit to dos, call up his file mgr and delete SOMETHING…ANYTHING!! Then exit back to 3ds and save his prj file!! I learned this…
#ImageQ & Dierctor,Too
Message #154084
Bob Computer Related: I remembered our msg's about ImageQ and have been price shopping to find that best prices put it at 1/2 the price of Director!! It advertises to be an authoring app!! Is in the same league as Director or is the best track to go for the…
Doesn't that kind of talent belong in the Masters and Johnson forum? I think it's the one w/ Heidi Fliece as the new sysop.
Ted They wouldn't happen to be those cars(used loosly) w/ the opening front, like a telephone booth on wierd wheels?? If so I remember seeing one stateside!! Very Very strange creation that even went to production!!! EXTREMELY Dangerous!! Were called casket on wheels!! Gary( Dazzled by technology) Angle
Jim is right!! Lots o' space stuff AND a football helmet(w/o human)!! I've used it and it's excellent (after conversion to Dallas Cowboy helmet)(darn those field conditions! Gary(Shop till I drop on the Rendering Plant)Angle
Ted '57 Panhard?? I said '57 Chevy!! The '57 should be 57' Panhard (from Pizza Inn). You must have picked up part of the msg from the guy from Shepton studios; he ordered pizza for everyone on the forum! Nice guy!! By romantic language are you talking about C++? (shudder)…
Ted The Italians just design for everybody, they cut out before it's wrapped around the frame….so Spain=Diablo & Testarosa….Germany=Carrado, etc. Who do we favor….. americans=Edsel & Dimaxion!!
Ted How shocking!! No, Testatrosa is Spanish for testosterone the harmone most active in the body of a person who will own one of these cars!! It's the thing that makes the car the ultimate property of their wives after the divorce. I see quite a few geeks in Testarosas…
Kevin I've been looking for something like this. Could you explain where to find it? Thanks, Gary
Bob Speaking for us really rich folk did you catch the "thank you" to G from the guy from Sheppton Studios? Holy, Pinnanfarina!! "2 YOST" on the plates for his Testarosas!! Don't it make you want to go buy Doom! Those partners have 2 each and they bought plate frames…
Max Alas, That is what I have done (but ate the samples first) only to discover that the samples were only plastic….!!!! OH, THE HEARTBURN!!!! Roughage is an understatement! Thanks, That solution of scanning is excellent for this job! Gary
jonas forever in your debt! When I said pastries in foil I meant clear plastic wrap like Saran wrap. That's what the samples look (looked as in past tense) like. inside the product was kindof like marble cake individually wrapped slices. Any ideas on the organic look of this? Thanks…

Doug I ate breakfast at the Magnolia (BREAKFAST TACOS&Habanero salza) bought the t-shirt, watched the crowd (looked like a tight shot of the crowd in Woodstock) Then Jogged the trails (w/ heavy-duty heart burn). Forgot all my physical ailments as I noticed the condition of the other joggers!! They must…
Bob Sadly what I remembered as candied pumkin was indeed candied GOAT entrails!! Boy was I surprised!! After my Menudo I ordered candied pumkins, the waiter seemed confused so I took him to the glass case. As I pointed it out I noticed he was smiling!! As I was finishing…
