What about UV unwrapping? I haven't reached that yet in the tutorials but it was pretty painful to do in the programs I've used so far (AC3D, Milkshape).

Ah, not once has there gone more than 9 days or less than 1 day between new pages in this thread, so far this year. I am currently grabbing some data so that I can make a spiffy graph showing activity in this thread so far this year.

Here is le spiffy graph:



It graphs the number of posts per day for each page, from January 1, 2014, to today. It assumes 50 posts per page.

The term 'Posts Per Day' may be somewhat mathematically misleading; that number was obtained for each individual page by taking the number of days between the first post on that page and the first post on the next, and dividing 50 by that number. So, you get the number of posts per day, not for a given time period, but rather for a set of 50 posts.

But yaeh, it's a neat little representation of the forum activity level over time. I would like to make one with dates on the X axis, instead of page numbers.

Very spiffy. I like the way the gradient fades into the colour of the new post (beta forum users only). If you haven't seen it, it's too late*

Dead easy. Blender supports several different automatic unwrapping methods, plus when you do it by hand it's fast and efficient (select faces to unwrap, press U -> Unwrap, slide about and adjust in UV/Image Editor window).

Quote: "Here is le spiffy graph"


Spiffy indeed. It's pretty cool, but now we need one where your code extracts the dates of each post and gives us a REAL posts-per-day measurement

Ha! Code! I haven't written a line of code in like three months. I got every one of those data points by hand. Well, by mouse pointer, but you know what I mean. It took me like two hours to make that graph.

So what do we say, time to end the banner vote? I haven't tallied the votes yet, but it should be easy to deduce which banners will and will not make it. Honestly, the 7 or 8 votes it does have should be plenty enough.

Most important rule is don't double-post or your points are cut in half. But yeah just by posting you get points

What is?

Speaking of good movies, we watched the new Godzilla movie last night, and despite pretty terrible critical reviews, we thought it was really good. Maybe it makes a difference that I haven't seen the original Godzilla, but I thought the 2014 version was, in and of itself, a really good movie.

EDIT: Oooh I just realised I can give myself any badge I want... hehehe...
