David, Actually, I'm just now looking for a package. I've seemed to narrow it down to, Lightwave Macromind Director 3D Studio I still have a lot of learning to do. This, BTW, is a personal creative project, not for business. I want to learn. The 10 steps was just my vision. If my first cut of this is low-grade then it just don't matter — I'll have fun learning and creating my vision. What comments do you have on the above packages? Also, in regard to your comment, >>there are some nifty galixies that are in library rendered by Ed K using particle system – I don't know how >>he feels about letting you use them – won't hurt to ask – he's good guy Where can I get these galaxies? I'd love to see them? What package are they in? Can I get an AVI demo or something? >> planets use Lgrad What's LGrad? >> I use clip art or other programs art/paint if I need detail – then fly cels around Do you have a demo clip of your work? As I said, I'm going to have a lot of fun learning this. And if in the process I get a list of "experts" that I can pay to do a top job, then that's even better. Regards, Robert Thompson
