Cheeze3...Enjoyed those photos....Too bad when one tries to zoom in on a close up such as your model the depth of field is so shallow....Otherwise one could really make some scenes realistic. Where is the WM engine location...?

Congrats, Chad. Just look at all those stars...it almost inspires me to song...

Starry starry night. Paint your palette blue and grey. Look out on a summer's day with eyes that know the darkness in my soul...

OK...that's probably enough of my pitiful attempts at music. I'd doubt too many people in here know that song anyways.

What! I have the music for that, and can play and sing it! Plus I heard Mr. McLean perform it live!

Way to go, Chad. Keep 'em coming![tup]

Congratulations, Chad! You have some very good posts, and I always
enjoy reading them. Come over to the diner, and I'll give you a free ice
