Holy hell, I should've done this years ago. I just kept putting up with a silly workflow of storing things in iPhoto and exporting them individually to Photoshop. Considering Aperture is only 80 bucks, I really wonder why I waited so long. It's a great upgrade, with a proper adjustment set, more flexible layout, but still fits nicely for those used to iPhoto.

Pick it up. $80 in the Mac app store. Well worth it if you are already managing your stuff with iPhoto.

Scrapbooking

1 min read
dA made a fairly nice change to the "more like this" feature, splitting it into "more from dA" and "more from this artist" section. I really like the change, but it adds a little issue. It highlights a whole bunch more of my old, shitty work. So I spent a good bit of time today moving the more cringeworthy stuff into scraps, which hides it from that feature. Some of them might get deleted entirely at some point, but I kind of like them hidden away somewhere for posterity.

Be sure to check out the pretty wiki page with the new features, me and the rest of the documentation crew have worked hard on it this past week. Oh, btw, the splash screen contest will be starting soon.

I got around to finding where Maxon stashed the demo download on their website this week. I really like the U. Very, very simple to get what you need. Except subdivision seems to be needlessly complex (parenting to a HyperNURBS object) Works well once it's done. It's not so powerful in the simulation department though. I'm just glad hte UI isn't the total mess that Maya's is. Blender 2.5's UI is really not all that bad. I just wish it would highlight what I'm about to select in edit mode.
