This is a quite interesting list that I just started subscribing
to. I have gotten about 50 messages since yeasterday so be sure you have
enough memory (and time) for it.

This is the 3D Studio Mailing List.
-- WHAT IS 3D Studio? --
3D Studio is a 3D modeling, rendering and animation package from the
makers of AutoCAD, Autodesk, Inc. The software runs on the IBM/compatible
platform. The 3D Studio software allows users to create three
dimensional photo-realistic images for a variety of purposes.
-- WHY ARE WE DOING THIS? --
This mailing list is for those interested in the 3D Studio software, how
it operates and in ideas on how to obtain the best quality images
available to them. The list is for those who own the software as well
as those just interested in what can be done with the package. We hope
to share information, tips, procedures and to bond as a group.
Autodesk, Inc. has agreed to host this Mail-List as a service to the
Internet community. This is NOT an offical means of product
support for 3D Studio. However, support questions that are posted to
the list will most likely get answered by other members of the
Mail-List group.
-- WHAT ARE THE RULES? --
Since 3D Studio is just a part of suite of tools required to produce 3D
graphics and animation, I'm sure we will discuss a few items related to
the IBM/Compatible platform and display devices. However, we will
strive to keep the subject revolving specifically around the 3D
software, related tools and products.
You do NOT have to own 3D Studio to join this list!

directory. All of the archives are there (updated nightly).
-- NOW WHAT DO I DO? --
Well, sit back and enjoy the pouring out of information. If you have
something to offer, please feel free to contribute that information to
the list. Every little bit helps. Questions are welcomed! It makes
