Also wanted: great shaders, materials and node setups for any great looking materials and effects.

Dang, I've got to finish my lightsaber tutorial in time for this. Rotoscoping would be an awesome addition to an animation issue. Plus the introduction to nodes.
Yes it would. Finish it up and send it in.
OOOH, Yes please. A tip on how to make cloth interact with water on svn blender would be nice aswell (hint) :-)
throw in the new camera jiggle technique as well...otherwise it might be lost....
YES! What LsBlend said. Please include the new camera jitter technique as a tutorial.
Don't let that one get lost in the black hole of blender tutorials/techniques!
Look forward to this issue. I haven't ever been game to give animation a fair go. Been trying to get this lighting and rendering down pat. So if it includes beginners tutorials I'll be happy indeed!
interesting, there hasn't been one on particles, camera and illumanating objects so far. hey, my frog just moved...
I would write a tutorial... if I knew anything about the Art of Animation myself XD. Looking forward to this Issue, I wanna learn this stuff badly!
@CrazyJack: Was the frog moving, or were you? Remember it's all relative! WooOOoooooOOOOOOOoooo....... *whispers* relativity....
I also would like one of camera and lighting... actually I think there was one on lighting... can't remember. Oh well just make me another. Chop Chop, get to work :D.
PS: The BlenderArt Team ROCK! Keep it up you sexy things you!
