#new 3ds user info
Greetings,
I have always loved CI$ for the ability to get help/direction and new
ideas. I just purchased 3DS on Friday and I am working up the learning curve.
Below are my applications, expertise and questions. Thanks for your help!
I am a research veterinary pathologist that hopes to use the images/data
or concepts from 2-d and 3-d research images (via NTSC->VGA->2-d and confocal
microscope->2-d/3-d images) to make animations. I use a CCD camera on a
microscope to collect 2-d images for image analysis and a confocal microscope
that uses laser light to make 2-d and/or 3-d real-time images over time using a
super-cooled CCD. All images can be stored as *.TGA/TIF files.
I am comfortable with 2-d graphics (e.g. Corel/Aldus/Adobe/ Arts &
Letters/Fractal Design/etc.) and Animator Pro, but need help with both (A)
info-sources and (B) add-on options for 3DS. I am also interested in (C) where
the best place is to find new users also working to "master" this dramatic
product . . . like news letter, user-groups.
From this forum I have learned about IPAS products, tho I am uncertain
how to find vendors, and lots of selected tips.
Thanks for you help and ideas,
john
