With the many changes this week I think it would be useful to have another tutorial on Nutcracker.

It will be again on big blue button.

In "Join A Meeting" select the "cracker" channel. Bobby set this up so i can give nutcracker tutorials.

Enter your name, no password needed.

I will open the conference on Thrusday Aug 23rd, 6:45pm (MST, Denver, Mountain Time).

Tutorial will start at 7pm MST.

We will be recording this so it can be played back if you cant make it.

Topics:

Pictures. How to use them, what are good pictures and bad for effects

Gifs: what sort of animated gifs work, where to find them, what about gif transparency

Layers: how to select good pictures to layer on animations

Bug fixes: I will go through the changes made to nutcracker this last week, all ten of them

Projects: what is imminent (you may want to install nutcracker on your local drive)

Lsp,lor,vixen specific changes coming

Current list of open work.

A) horizon target model

single string effects for eaves, windows and arches
