Steven,
I, too, am a 3DStudio user and am located in the Milwaukee area. I don't
know how many of us there are in our regional area, but what are your
feelings on starting a 3DStudio users' group? I also have some interest in
architectural rendering and walkthroughs, but have only had commercial
success with computer presentation animation. Recently ordered a Diaquest
and am hoping to be able to stir up a little more commercial interest.

Roger,
I think a 3D Studio User's Group is a great idea! I hadn't given it much
thought since I personally know the only other two people interested in 3D
Studio in all of Rockford. I'm afraid I can't be of much help at starting one
up since I'm currently an officer in the local chapters of the AIA, Mac U.G.,
and AutoCAD U.G. I think my wife would tolerate my having an affair better
than if I became an officer in another group; but I'm willing to help promote
the idea.
I also hope to get a Diaquest and Panasonic AG7750 as soon as I can afford
them. Right now I record to an AG1960 using a TrueVision VideoVGA. The output
is great but its made me eager to get into frame accurate TGA recording. Let
me know what you think of your Diaquest when it comes in.
Do you know if the Milwaukee AutoCAD U.G. is still alive? The Rockford group
considered having a joint meeting with them once.

Roger,
There is already a user group in the Milwaukee area!!!! Mike Bahr and I
co-founded it last summer. Both of us have been too busy to organize for a
few months so there have no meetings for a while. However, I am ready to
get fired up again. Of course we made it pretty broad and called it the
Milwaukee Multimedia User Group, but 3DS is definetely the prime focus,
followed closely by Renderman.
Please contact me, I am trying to get a feb meeting, and have asked Pixar
to send me some tapes to show at the meeting. My number is (414)223-4897.

Anil,
I'd be interested in learning more about your user's group as well. I might
not be able to make the trip from Rockford very often but I'd like to keep in
touch. Does your group have a newsletter? What is the annual membership fee?
Let me know when your next meeting will be by Email and/or I'll try calling
you.
