This is Brandon Bartlett with DesignTec. We are about to start offering a rendering service for 3D-Studio users (among others) and would like to post a press release in the Autodesk Multimedia forum. Can we post the message in multipe sections, to achieve maximum readership? Can we post it repeatedly, say every month or so? Are there any other requirements, prohibitions, etc. that you think we should know about and observe? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Post it once in the Take 5 section only. Commercial advertising is frowned upon on the forum. If you come off like an auctioneer the sysop will probably bar you from the forum. <BG>

Thanks, I can't type fast enough to sound like an auctioneer, though. <g>

The best is to create a press release as a file and upload it to the libraries, then make a single announcement stating what you do and that the file is up there. CIS does not allow blatant advertising, but a tasteful press release is always welcome.
