Help Needed Updating the Features Page at Blender.org
With so many new features constantly being added to Blender, it’s time to polish up the visuals on the Features Pages at Blender.org.

I’m looking for new eye candy filled screenshots following these guidelines:
- Take a look at the current images
- Try to not waste much space in blank areas or empty 3d view zones
- You are free to use any theme or icon set you want
- Try to stick to some area of blender on each screenshot, for example if you are showing hair rendering you could have the particle panels in some button window, a render of the particles in some image window, and a 3d view of particle mode
- If posible save as png files with no scaling (I do the scaling and recompressing)
Please send images to zanqdo at gmail dot com
So, if you’re able, take some time to help spice up the Features page with some great visuals!
Here’s a link to a discussion thread dedicated to the issue. You’ll also find some examples of the types of images that have already been submitted.
That’s great. To show what Blender can do, we should have impressive videos showing the advanced and very useable features of Blender.
Where is the list of new features down to the smallest patch ? That would be a great start
Here’s a link to a listing of changes since version 2.45:

I’ll add it to the article above.
I did a lot of videos about the new features of the 2.46 release :

the quality is not high for have low weights and the titles are in french (the technical words are in english, so you could understand what video it is).

tripdragon: of you really want to know everything that has happened in SVN, you could go here:

;)
It helps if you follow it as they are added.
“500 – Internal Server Error” when I try to access blender.org….
I had the same error trying to acces to peach blog.
500 – Internal Server Error
Egan I am on the messages emails but soooo many edits come in hourly I stop following along.

Gives 500 – Internal Server Error
what ever happened about the tree generating tool? Was it made?
When you experience 500s on our servers, be patient and try again an hour later (or a few).

Not to complain, but, on that same note, when will the Blender.org Gallery be updated?
I’ve been getting those 500 server errors too, it’s quite frustrating, I’d say 1 out of 5 attempts at reaching blender.org is actually successful.
Has the server been changed or something?
Yeah, I’ve been getting “500 error” messages for a week now. This is not an hourly thing. I can reload and reload, etc. every hour, and I’ve *never* seen it up. What’s going on, guys?
OK, it looks like the servers just can’t handle “t3h pub1cit1zniz3zz,” as the young people call it:

Also das ist eine wirklich wichtige Frage und oft ist die Antwort vielen Leuten nicht bekannt. Man muss sich st?ndig bem?hen und ausprobieren, damit man die beste Variante f?r sich finden kann.
