Are you frustrated that you cannot seem to get hold of a Blender developer? This new Blender Add-on by CodemanX will give you a direct line to Ton Roosendaal, chairman of the Blender Foundation and Blender's Lead developer. Download it here and check how to use it in this useful video by Sebastian König.
What would you like to say to Ton?

:D Nice way to close a gap!! lol
Very handy add-on. I've been explaining my obscure and outlandish 3D content creation needs for over and hour now. ;o)
It reminds me of the Microsoft "We share your pain" project:

I prefer using the music player addon.
Bug report
Title "The brand new addon "Peeping Ton" crashes no 2.70
**System Information**
Ubuntu 13.04, nvidia m425
**Blender Version**
Broken: (example: 2.70.7 19e627c)
**Short description of error**
__init__.py", line 185, in draw_callback_px
if self.__class__._pointer != context.area.as_pointer():
File "blender-2.70-linux-glibc211-x86_64/2.70/scripts/modules/bpy_types.py", line 580, in __getattribute__
properties = StructRNA.path_resolve(self, "properties")
ReferenceError: StructRNA of type VIEW3D_OT_peeping_ton has been removed
**Exact steps for others to reproduce the error**
Open blender, install addon from the zip file, activate the addon with the spacebar and typing ton (if not already), right click o ton image, the message error will appear and Ton will crash..(I mean, leave), sometimes you need to right click 3 or 4 times to crash, try in different places of the image.
I'm not sure about the exact cause, but I believe the actual error is the removal of a timer, but the timer object being None. Removing it conditionally (if is not None) should fix it (open the .py file, line 235 where it removes the timer, add a check "if self.__class__._timer is not None:"). There is still a timer issue however - a new timer is apparantely added whenever you call Ton, although the previous one should had been killed.
I love how he looks at what you're complaining about.
Placing cursor between eyes. :}
They should create an addon that connects to Ton's webcam so you can watch him while he works. ;P

Superb! How did Sebastian manage to keep his voice so perfectly serious?
Sebastian is a better actor than everybody in Tears of Steel. Sorry, could hold myself in. LOL:)
Couldn't help taking this photo:

Ton stopped listening to me when I started editing. Wahhhhh. SNifffle.
The best development in the history of history. ;)
