3ds max 7. It seems better, but some poeple are used to Maya more than 3ds max

For the best flash anime, go to Lifepoint1.com

I am also looking into creating 3d models for myself, and would also like to have honest opinions on which programs are albe to let me get into moddeling without ever doing any previous moddeling before hand. Also, what do you guys think of 3d Canvas Pro from TGC's here?

im saving for maya only because its file format is native to my video editing software, yes my video editing software is a 3d format due to the way it uses the GPU to perform the effects faster then rendered via the cpu.

this means all of mayas 3d dimensions are carried into the editing software which allows me to place film on 3d elements and keep the existing Z dimension features.

If no-one gives your an answer to a question you have asked, consider:- Is your question clear.- Did you ask nicely.- Are you showing any effort to solve the problem yourself 
