Contest thread on BlenderArtists
Sweet, I’m the first post X-D
Great contest ideal :-)
Obj or Fbx? If I want to have something animated I would definitely have it in blend format as I only use blender for 3d, not other crap.
Other crap? -.-
Dude, as I understood, these are not blender people, they are secular.
And Obj Is very very popular.
Popular among the unwashed blend-less masses.
Obj with .mtl and textures is a find submission.
Why so whiny about formats? You can import/export just fine with blender.
is there any possibility to extend the deadline
