Before I started using blender, I had been planning on spending some $800 on xsi for rendering and modeling etc. This was before tutorials which also cost money. Come to find out, that spending large sums of money on either was not neccessary especially for a beginner such as myself (and xsi didn't even have built in game engines!) blender opens the pathway for young/poor people =o to play around in the 3d sandbox and to even render seriously in addition to learning as well - sunglow etc. are wonderful solutions for all people who have access to computers to use because of these reasons I think that sunflow qualifies as Easy to Access imo. though some day, I think I will want to celebrate its more perfect communion with blender Yes the guy above has a point - although, I will take a position of patience because I appreciate greatly what the dedicated staff of the Blender/ Yafray, and Sunglow, etc community have been doing here.

because of these reasons I think that sunflow qualifies as Easy to Access imo.

though some day, I think I will want to celebrate its more perfect communion with blender

In our case the "great" Blender 3D. Give us the Sunflow inside Blender 3D and all the community will use it all days. Sorry, but this is my opinion ...please do not let us wait a lot.This is the 4th time Blender Nation tells something related to this tool. I hope the next thread we will have good news.

I'm pretty sure it's not spyware or viruses ;) I just need to send a message to the maker of Vienna and suggest pop-up blocking, at least as an option. Thanks again!

When I enabled popups for that site (I use the Firefox browser) I did get a popup but, no redirects. @Crisses
