    I wonder if one can just build a bundle with the instruments, accessories, and poses.


    Could an authentic full sized concert hall grand piano be far behind?

    Piano is easier to animate cos you can make targets out of individual keys. Violin threw me cos the bow extends one hand but the instrument pivots around the chin and as well the other hand. Makes for a difficult bit of action when you start to imagine the violin is doing the puppetry :lol: :lol:

    Might be fun? I suppose it depends on how many dragons are in it :P (Where less is better ^^)
    Is a dragon on the cover so I guess that doesn't bode well. Then again the graphics are all small and pixely, so at that size/detail, would it really matter?

    After my friends died in the 2009 fires I couldn't eat the food we used to like when we had dinner together.

    Complaint: They should all be in one Bundle (like Bundles used to be) because as it is I can't afford them (cry cry cry).
    I'm waiting on Michael 6 Pro Bundle and the earlier Insanity Sales have me limiting my spending at the moment (food, then 3D is hard to remember).

    Yep, beautiful (if rather pricey) Violin, Viola, Cello, and Bass, and an accessories set -- none of which includes cases for the instruments (I could really use a nice modern ABS violin case, so good cases for these would've sold me on 'em). And a lovely pose set for Genesis to use them right when I'm about to switch over to the G2s (yeah, G1 poses can be used on G2s reasonably well, except for the hands -- really important on this set). And conductor poses -- hmmmm, maybe.

    Not extraordinarily complaint-worthy, just frustrating to see a set of products pop up that's so close to what I need . . . but not close enough.

    ...if you're there in late June, take a trip up to Milwaukee for a couple days (about 90 min by train) as that is when they hold the annual Summerfest on the lakefront which is one of the largest ongoing outdoor music and food festivals in the nation (began in 1967).


    There are also a number of Wright's designs in Southern Wisconsin as well the most notable ones the Johnson Wax Headquarters in Racine, Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church in Milwaukee, several of his "American System" built homes on W. Burhnam Ave in Milwaukee, the Frederick C. Bogk House, as well as Hillside Home School II and his studio and Taliesin III in Spring Green. Lake Delavan, just southwest of Milwaukee also boasts five of his designs as well.

    Wright was a native of Richland Center Wisconsin.

    Is the weather hot and humid in late June? I'm asking because I haven't been to the Midwest before. I've heard of Racine but I didn't know that Frank build any buildings there. I'm giong to read about Racine after I finish doing my errands.

    Thanks for the info though.

    i have a new respect for St. Francis. tried to walk bubby to his favorite pee bush in the yard. we didn't make it that far and i wasn't able to lift him to his feets. brought a pillow and sitting next to him do some praying. the meter reader dude shows up, i know, came and helped me get him up.

    we're back inside but bubby didn't greet his pee bush. my wrists are too fatigued to boost him up the steps again, at least not today, he's gonna have to make do with the concrete by the door. he had a nice lunch, london broil and sweet potatoes. i opened the windows, fresh air is coming in. the rain and damp is passing, hoping that means bubby's hip thing isn't so bad tomorrow.

    goona try asking the neighbor's teenager would help me walk bubby, if i offer him like 20 or 30 bucks a week.

    One of the banner ads at the top has bundle info, and when you click on it...the new stuff shows up and all four items are in the bundle category. You add the ones you want, and get 40% off when you add one, 50% off when you add two or more. They seem a bit pricey for that, though. Especially since you are out of work. I don't know if the bundle capability will remain after the sale or not. The string instruments really look like one was modeled then the others were just scaling changes, with the exception of adding the chin pad or the stand spike. I do notice that the texture looks different between the DS and Poser versions. That's to be expected, I guess. Both look equally good, though.

    I thought I saw a grand in here somewhere, unless I was thinking about Renderosity. So far none of the ones I've seen are quite good enough. And none of them have actuating keys, like the harpsichord here does.

    Sorry to hear about your friends. Nice that you can have these memories, though. It seems that trauma changes you, not always for the better. It takes time to work things out and start to be more of your "old" self. I have not gotten to that point yet and don't know if that will ever happen. Especially when more sh...crap keeps happening.

    ...tried to bundle three of them together and the math is just too wonky to figure out especially with that extra 18% for the rest of the day. In my cart they come to 29.25 but trying to calculate all the discounts to see If I am actually getting the 50% is an exercise in voodoo math.

    ...it really depends on which way the winds are. If they are of the lake it is usually cool (Lake Michigan has a similar effect on Milwaukee as the San Francisco Bay has on the city there). If the winds are out of the south - southwest, then it can be hot & humid, though the worst heat & humidity occurs in July - August

    ...I do so all the time, which is why the heavy enameled cast iron pan works so well. For one it heats very evenly and second, has a thick enough bottom to resist scorching from the ring underneath. I never turn it up to high but just between medium high & high and can still get it to a boil before turning it down to simmer. I always use the cover as well.

    I'd check second hand shops & Goodwill, but make sure the enamel on the interior isn't chipped.


    True, gas is still better but one has to make do.
