Me too but for having been a programmer and thus having a least a bit of understanding of what the devs are talking about. > Since English isn't my language, maybe I don't understand what Luke ment by > "Hard to tell what's going in and what's coming out". > > Now I don't know what you mean by this: > >> ...have you done ANY node work in >> blender?

No, what I meant was that maybe you did not understand his pictures because you are not used to doing blender node work. I think that if you played with it for a few hours, his pictures would be clear. No disrespect meant at all!! I think regular users are VERY important for devs to hear. It is very easy to get caught up in a word where you know it all and thus it is all obvious and easy. It takes a newbie or user to see that it is NOT obvious and then step up and tell the devs. Great products must have great coding but they also need great design and docs even more. My mother tongue is English but I live in Germany, so I have a great understanding and respect for anyone trying to communicate in a non-mother tongue! It is my daily hell. Sorry for any misunderstandings I might have caused. This image is 5 days old, so if it vanishes, email me and I will repost. It is just a simple composting node system that I made. It has lots of inputs and outputs with viewers. I think it is a bit like what he was thinking about but with composting in this case. Maybe it will make things more clear. http://imagebin.org/95706 -- Douglas E Knapp Massagen Arbeit in Gelsenkirchen Buer http://bespin.org/~douglas/tcm/ztab1.htm Please link to me and trade links with me!
