Blender.org Gallery Updated (Finally!)
20 Comments Published by Fweeb on May 15th, 2007 in Art, Blender Foundation
First, before saying anything, please allow me to publicly apologize for the extreme delay in updating the gallery on Blender.org. I slipped up and missed the March update and for that I’m sincerely sorry. I won’t let that happen again. That said, there have some really great submissions in the last two months! The gallery has been updated and you can see how much good work is coming out of our community. The current gallery page has work from April and here’s a direct link to the March gallery. Which ones are your favorites?
The Open Material Library is a new Blender material repository and even though it’s still in beta (in good web 2.0 fashion), I think we may have a winner here!
“Blender 2.44 was intended to be an upgrade release, mainly for plenty of bug fixes, but the developers took the effort of adding at least a few interesting new features.”
Now there’s an understatement.
Although you never know with Open Source software (“it’ll be ready when it’s ready”), it looks like the release of 2.44 is near. For now, all we can report on is that the new 2.44 splash screen has been committed to CVS (or rather to SVN, as the developers are in the middle of a switch to the new version management system). The new splash is designed by @ndy, who seems to have a thing for gecko’s ;-)
Yesterday a new distribution of Linux that’s designed for media production was released: Ubuntu Studio. Unlike the distribution it’s based on, Ubuntu Studio is not a “Live CD” distro. Rather, it’s designed to run close to the metal and take as much advantage of your hardware as possible. It sports an impressive list of bundled applications for audio production, graphics creation, animation, and even some video. Of course, Blender 2.43 is prominently included.
