    Please don't upload the magazine to other sites and please don't like to uploads elsewhere. We've worked hard with this magazine and uploading to other places and sharing it will ruin what we have worked for.

    It now won't let you in unless you sign in or sign up!

    Don't have this problem with the previous issue.

    I get a content warning when I go to the page maybe this has changed the conditions to require signing in to view the content.

    The issue do comply to even the DAZ Forum TOS but someone reported it or some auto image detection system decided some renders were "nude", we're working on it.

    Well, it got me joining the Facebook group... and I almost NEVER join Facebook groups, so well done!

    Seriously though, there's some great articles in this months issue and I really respect the amount of work that must go into collating all that info. I might tidy up my Smart Content tutorial and provide better images so I can submit it as an article. It's a question which gets asked fairly regularly, and it may prove useful for people buying from non-Daz sites which don't include metadata.

    Sooner or later my old thread will be cast into the archives, so having a more permanent residence could be useful to someone.

    You said issue #1, this was for Issue#3, but it can be related (those damn free hosting sites used are free for a reason....)

    All of the freebies link to mediafire which is a file hosting site. And should not direct to any porn.

    Your browser could potentially have a virus which causes redirects to porn popups.

    Do a google search for Mediafire.com Redirect Virus I suspect this may be the problem.

    Damn, the same with me. I want to read it very much, but why would I need to sign up...?

    contrary to what has been said I have always needed an account to download...not to view but to download a copy, no matter what mag it is. Now given the change in the conditions we now have to create an account even to view this issue. I don't get spam from them so I cannot see why the resistance. But as always it is a personal choice and I would never try to sway people to my POV.

    Depends on what you call Spam ... they are sending me "you might be interested in" mails with things I am absolutely not interested in ...

    well that is because you didn't turn them OFF in your Issuu account settings. :P

    Great magazine! Really greatful for all the work you put into this. Lots of good stuff. What really was gold for me was Tottes article about "Groups and instances". Since I often make quite large scenes which makes my 16GB RAM squeal, this information will of major benefit for me. Thanks!

    One note though; the video with synchronized swimming is not available.

    Just followed the Motion Blur tutorial in Issue 3, and it worked beautifully. I had seen the Motion Blur check box in the Advanced Render Settings, but could never get it to work! I had no idea that the Animation timeline was required. In 2D apps I can do motion blur without using that! But now I won't need that anymore!
    I'm one happy camper!

    Just found out that an email isn't sent when someone edits the first post - went search to find out what had become of this months issue, as I don't do Facebook and had seen nothing.

    So adding this for anyone else in the dark.

    Can something be done in future issues to keep images from bleeding over to other pages? Note the way the bottom image on page 12 continues on to page 13 here -

    The mag is designed to be viewed two-page, not single page. Try setting your PDF-viewer in two page mode and you'll be much happier

    Well - not so much. I've an older Adobe Reader and the current Foxit - and they both do two-up with the odd-numbered page to the left. I don't see a way with either to go page-by-page in two-up mode, so if an image bleeds across the center it needs to start on the odd-numbered page. Here's what I get for the same two pages in two-up mode:
