Adobe Fonts
So you downloaded the Glow Font Folio Release a bit over a month ago and when you unpacked the baby you found out to your isappointment that all the fonts were still encrypted.

Well the Glow release saved you $70 you would otherwise have to pay for the encrypted and inaccessable fonts. However you then would have to give Adobe $100 for a key to unecrypt each guy. And who in there right mind wants a 50 disk download saving em $70, when its nuthing but a program to purchase fonts at $100 a pop.

3D Studio Max 9 Full Tutorial

3D Studio Max 9 marks the first full release of 3ds Max software with both 32-bit (Windows®) and 64-bit (Windows®) executables. It enables you to address considerably more memory than you could in the past, allowing you to handle larger and more complex scenes than ever before.

Easily Render Realistic Scenes
mental ray 3.5 adds powerful rendering functionality to 3ds Max 9. Create photorealistic skies based on the position of the sun with Physical Sun and Sky mental ray shader. New Architectural and Design shaders make it easier for designers and architects to create effects such as blurred reflections, frosted glass, and glossy car paint. The ability to create bump mapping on glossiness only and to simulate round corners and soft edges makes objects appear even more natural and true to life.

Mental ray 3.5 Core
mental ray 3.5 adds a simplified user interface for working with Final Gather. IT also has a unified indirect lighting model that provides consistent results when switching between different 3ds Max radiosity modes.

Performance Optimizations
Core performance enhancements have been made to 3ds Max 9 to maximize your productivity and accelerate your creative workflow. For example, enjoy greater viewport interactivity when working with dense meshes and the ability to switch between high-res and low-res bitmap proxies
to allow for faster interaction.

Layered Animation
The ability to place animation into separate layers allows you to easily tweak dense and complex animations. Layers can be turned on or off to evaluate an animation, can blend new keys with existing motion, and can allow for a full range of adjustments without having to modify the key frames of the animated object.
Character Animation Workflow Improvements
Craft and refine your character animation more easily with numerous enhancements to Biped functionality. For example, you can now move keys past each other and work in negative frames. This saves steps when tweaking a Biped animation and is particularly useful when trying to reverse an animation, since one can now negatively scale an animation range.

ProBooleans
ProBooleans is a new tool for modeling with Boolean operations allowing you to quickly and easily model inorganic shapes—useful for prototyping geometry, creating game level layout designs, and complex architectural elements. Merge, intersect, subtract, or add meshes to create rich and complex objects. ProBooleans re-evaluates the topology to remove bad triangles, allowing you to create higher-quality meshes with fewer small edges and skinny triangles.

Hair and Cloth Improvements
Easily work with Cloth and Hair in 3ds Max 9. Create, manipulate, and style hair directly in the viewports using standard navigation and selection tools. As of 3ds Max 9, you can cinch waistlines, shorten hems, and tailor clothing in the stack without the need to edit the original pattern to make clothes fit.

XRef Object Enhancements
Many enhancements have been made to XRefs in 3ds Max 9. You can now reference scene geometry, materials, and controllers and can maintain dependencies between XRef’d items. The XRef system’s new dependency handling lets you preview object relationships in both merge and XRef operations, providing more control over how external objects are used.

Enhanced FBX Support
The Autodesk® FBX® 3D authoring and interchange format allows you to exchange assets between 3D applications. Enhancements in FBX include improvements to mesh compatibility, pixel accuracy when transferring assets and data between 3ds Max, Maya and MotionBuilder software
Display Support for DirectX and CG Shaders
Support for all DirectX® shaders and performance enhancements have been made for 3ds Max 9. You can now load cgfx files into the DX material and have them displayed in the viewport.

Realize Your Full Potential
The products in the Autodesk® 3D Product Portfolio — 3ds Max, Maya, MotionBuilder, and Autodesk® VIZ — represent the broadest set of solutions, applications, development resources, and streamlined workflow available in 3D. Whether your project calls for out-of-the-box functionality or customized toolsets, Autodesk has a 3D solution for you.

Dreamweaver CS3 The Missing Manual - Free Sample Chapter

When I transitioned from GoLive to Dreamweaver CS3 I found a great book that totally guided me along. The book, Dreamweaver CS3: The Missing Manual, is available from Amazon.com at a 34% discount. I also have a free sample chapter you can download in PDF format. Here's a little bit more about the book, and then a brief description of the PDF sample chapter.

Welcome to Dreamweaver CS3. This new version of the popular web design software offers a rich environment for building professional sites, with drag-and-drop simplicity, clean HTML code, and dynamic database-driven web site creation tools. Moreover, it's now integrated more tightly with Adobe's other products: Photoshop, InDesign, Flash, and their siblings. But with such sophisticated features, the software isn't simple.

So say hello to Dreamweaver CS3: The Missing Manual, the fifth edition of this bestselling book by experienced web site trainer and author David McFarland. This book helps both first-time and experienced web designers bring stunning, interactive web sites to life. With jargon-free language and clear descriptions, this new edition addresses both beginners who need step-by-step guidance as well as long-time Dreamweaver users who need a handy reference to address the inner-workings of the program.

Dreamweaver CS3: The Missing Manual teaches designers how to construct and manage web sites by examining web-page components and Dreamweaver's capabilities through "live examples". With a complete A-Z guide to designing, organizing, building and deploying a web site for those with no web design experience, this book takes you through the basics to advanced techniques to control the appearance of your web pages with CSS. It also shows you how to design dynamic database-driven web sites, from blogs to product catalogs, and from shopping carts to newsletter signup forms.

About the Author
David McFarland is a professional web designer and educator who has worked with the University of California at Berkeley, Intuit, and Macworld magazine among others, and is a member of the Dreamweaver Advisory Council.

Free Sample Chapter - Chapter 4 - Introducing Cascading Style Sheets
From the intro: What you see on a Web page when you use garden-variety HTML tags like h1, p, and ul, pales in comparison to the text and styling on display in, say, a print magazine. If Web designers had only HTML to make their sites look great, the Web would forever be the ugly duckling of the media world. HTML doesn’t hold a candle to the typographic and layout control you get when creating a document in even the most basic word processing program.

Fortunately for us designers, we can change the ho-hum appearance of HTML using a technology called Cascading Style Sheets. Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) are a way of making HTML look beautiful. If you think of HTML as the basic structure of a house (the foundation, walls, and rooms), then CSS is the house’s interior decoration (the paint, carpeting, and the color, style, and placement of furniture). CSS gives you much greater control over the layout and design of your Web pages. Using them, you can add margins to paragraphs (just as in a word processor), colorful and stylish borders to images, and even dynamic rollover effects to text links. Best of all, Dreamweaver’s streamlined approach lets you combine many of these design properties into powerful style sheets with just a few mouse clicks.

CSS is a large topic. It’s also the heart of today’s cutting edge Web design. So instead of dedicating just a single chapter to the topic, this book provides instruction in the fine art of using CSS in nearly every chapter. In this chapter, you’ll learn the basics of CSS, and how to use Dreamweaver CS3’s powerful CSS tools. In the next few chapters you’ll learn how CSS can improve the look of common Web page elements like links, images, and tables. Once you’re comfortable with the basics, you’ll find in-depth information on CSS—the kind of information that really makes your head ache—in Chapter 8. And, in Chapter 9, you’ll learn how to harness the power of CSS to fully control the layout of a Web page.
