Heh heh heh! Yeah, I figured you wouldn't tempt fate with a van. Well, I've had a good Christmas. A few toys, nothing computer related. The only downside is that my A3000T's left-mouse-button function isn't working. It's not the CIA's and it's not the mouse, so when I get some money together, I'll try and get it repaired. The repair tech thinks it might be a shorted circuit. I'm using my keyboard to emulate the left mouse click, but it apparently does not fully emulate it. It works on most software, but on some, it doesn't do a thing. The video project I had been working on fell through. My boss decided he didn't have the $$$ to pull it off in the quality he wanted. We could have done it, but he wanted it done "right" by hiring professionals to direct, etc. CanDo 3 came out, but I can't afford the upgrade at this time. Too steep for me. So I'll plug away with CanDo 2.51. At least I upgraded my Imagemaster R/t to 1.50C, and it is great. Ben is supposed to have a more major update soon. I'm still trying to find someone who wants to trade their older Toaster (1.0/2.0) for my studio camera. I've had a couple of nibbles, but nothing serious. Some local lads are trying their hand at developing some Amiga software and I might be helping out with the graphics end. We'll see if they can pull it off. I might be posting an early Imagine 3.0 model of my Cerberus spaceship sometime. When the video project was cancelled, I was told that I could do whatever I wanted to with the models. I still have The Producer project. It's sitting unfinished. I would like to get back to it, but it depends on how things go. I have to ask Jerry if he'd put some Framestores of some example work to tape for me. The G-Lock I'm using putters out when used with the A1200. Seems to work fine on my A3000T, but I don't have a 24 bit card or AGA on it, so that leaves that out. Oh, and I think you know that I'm on Internet now via Edmonton FreeNet. It's a fantastic thing to be involved with! I also get a message lists for Babylon 5 and the Toaster/LightWave. I know I can access B5 here, in SFMEDIA, but it's free for me on Internet. How's your demotape? Has it developed into an even more eye-catching item, or did our suggestions mess it all up? *8^) -= Vance =- Image Master Internet: viking@freenet.edmonton.ab.ca
