I came here to learn.. (yes I will suck out much grey matter from those of you who are worthy!
There is much that can be learned within this Forum. And there are many knowledgeable individuals that have posted here. So many new Members become daunted by what they read here.
I did get the feeling that trifox did not create this forum. However it is good to
know that you want to help introduce this art to newbies.. (like myself) Maybe
we could do more to encourage posting by the beginners? Whats great about
this art form is that it can be enjoyed on many different levels!
In the very beginning, there were a lot of Members that posted quite regularly, and at varying levels of knowledge and abilities. Just reading through the older posts will show how it has changed over the years.
It seems to me to have become a lot more technical, everybody focusing on either their programming or mathematical skills (or both) to come up with new and better ways, usually to do 3-D graphics and videos. I am not complaining about this, for I am enjoying what has been produced just in the past 8 months.
As long as such superb works are being displayed here, I am afraid that many "newbies" will not even bother posting their graphics here (I am sure a bit of intimidation is involved). And others might not even feel like asking questions, since they may seem to be too immature and/or basic.
Did you know that there are approximately 1,050 Members who have never posted at all to this Forum?? And some have been here for years.
