damn...i would really like to write the tut on Yafray rendering...seeing as how its the only renderer i use at the moment. but i don't know if i will have the time to write it.

[S68]

[gaurav]

That would be great stephano

Hey nehpets, we can give you extended time frame if you need. :P

[Alltaken]

could i write somthing about the monthly challenges?

what is the timeframe? i am about to leave ona huge roadtrip and am litterally about to go out the door. if someone can PM me or send me an email with the date and time i will read it when i get to my trip.

i don't normally ask stupid/lazy questions like this, so please forgive me.

i also wouldn't mind putting in somthing about Eck's and My battle. I have a ~200 frame /200 second time lapse animation of the whole modeling process. (may be usefull for people)

I appologise I forgot to mention the time line :-| Its now updated in the first post.


Alltaken,
If you can put up any useful stuff (which I am sure) you are more than welcome to write about it. I will be mail or PM you to fill up more on this.

Any ways again folks you can directly mail to me or Sandra if you want to contribute something useful for the magazine/community. We only take consideration about the quality of the article none other thing matters, no matter how short or long you are, or even if you are seceretly preparing to kick Ecks and Alltakens butt (with your renderings that is) :P

[dreamsgate]

When proofing articles for the magazine, I always clean up grammar and spelling, while doing my best to keep the author's intent and manner of speaking as true as possible.

So Send it on in, I'll fix it up for you.

[cekuhnen]

ah that sounds good.
i will let it proof read at the writers lab first anyway.
