Fresh Blender News, Every Day... BUT NOT TODAY!
Yesterday morning, the database RAID server that hosts BlenderNation crashed and our ISP has been working frantically to get everything back online. At the moment, we're still missing about two weeks worth of content but we should get that back later today. More information will follow..
I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.
