Your search box should clear when we type in new terms.

Keep in mind that buying stocks is generally for the long term.
Most likely you won't get rich, but your kids might benefit when
your stock is transferred to them in later years.

Back in the day, (1990's, I think,) Crystalgraphics sold 3d rendering programs. One such program, Crystal 3D,
running in MS DOS, had many advanced features, such as setting the position
of lighting in a scene to the sun's coordinates, and others. For it's time it was nicely
done software.

General Stock Discussion / Re: Needed: Easier Sign Ups Needed
« on: January 19, 2013, 11:16 »
Makes perfect sense, js, thanks.

If you're planning to upload, you do need to read the contract that you're signing. It's a pain, and one can certainly skim or speed read once you get the gist of what's in each section, but given the problems of handing over your valuable property to an business that either isn't above board or has some onerous conditions, it's in your best interests to do so.

Every job has its miserable chores :)

General Stock Discussion / Needed: Easier Sign Ups Needed

You want to sign with a new site.
Easy, just read and agree to the online documents. All ten pages of 'em.
I know they have to cover the bases, but can't the process be simpler?

Maybe you don't have a problem with that. Do you bother to read it all, or any of it?

Back in the day, they produced high quality (for the time) 3d rendering software.
It had many useful features but was easy to use.

I have submitted a few simple audio files on this site, had a couple downloads,
and like the way they keep the site going. This business is tough to break into,
and though we've been burned too often, a few uploads can't hurt.

Thanks.
They replied quickly and say they are affiliated with Dreamstime and
the vectors must be purchased so maybe they are legit.

Found this site selling some of my vectors.
Anyone know if they are affiliated with our regular sites or what the deal is?
Thanks - Jerry

Have to say it's good to see helpful words here, instead of the old way.

Software - General / Re: Bryce 6.3
« on: December 26, 2009, 14:31 »
I think so, though I have not done a lot with Vue. My cousin
owns Vue, and does beautiful work with it. Here's a sample.

Software - General / Re: Bryce 6.3
« on: December 26, 2009, 11:06 »
When I started at Dreamstime in 2006, my original submissions
and much of my later work was done in Bryce.

The only drawback is that it has no built in modeler,
and the textures, imo, are not as high-res as they could be.

Vue textures seem to be somewhat better, but good work
can be done in Bryce. Each has it's own learning curve.

Here's a sample of early work at Dreamstime.

Illustration - General / Re: How to convert 3d render to .ai file?
« on: November 21, 2009, 07:24 »
I had a similar request, and had no idea how to do it, but here's a link with some ideas.
I would think an .ai file has to be Illustrator version 8 compatible and contain no bitmaps.
No bitmaps usually means no transparency or special effects since those would be flattened
to bitmaps on export.

« on: November 18, 2009, 09:18 »
Gill, good luck with your project, but I suspect a big problem
with being unknown is that if potential customers can't find you,
or don't know you exist, you aren't going anywhere, even with
good keywords.







-God bless

General Stock Discussion / Re: Idea: Micropayment Clearing House
« on: October 19, 2009, 22:55 »
Ok. This may be not be practical, but an idea borne of frustration when money is short.
For instance, when I have $200 spread over five sites, and can't get a payout at any
for weeks or months. I realize this would not apply to the more successful among us.

Simply put, there should be a central clearing house for sales from all agencies.
Maybe once a week each agency would transfer our present earnings, no matter
how meager to the clearing house. We could then take our earnings in a more
timely manner. Of course there may still be limits set, but I think it would be a
more reasonable way to do it.



reasonable for us maybe, but what agency is going to give up the float they earn on those under achieving portfolios? 

i'd also expect that a large number of accounts never do reach payout, making those little accounts even more profitable for the agencies

not holding my breath....

What a fool I was, putting us first. Of course they do need operating capital, I guess.
