Daniel’s BlenderBlog

Ok, that title actually meant a lot of things well, more like two.

As you should know, the original walker project got killed when my hard drive died. So, I am restarting it. I plan to use the exact same workflow as last time. I’m starting with the front toes section, then the heel, afterward I will make everything from the ankle up, adding hydraulics at every joint upon it’s completion.

As for Ubuntu, that Linux distribution– “distro” in computer nerd speak– 7.10, the version that is needed to run the latest versions of GIMP and Blender, does not want to work on my laptop, all of the text is showing up in squares.

Never fear! Windows is here! Yep, I do have Windows installed on my computer now, so I can use my laptp to some avail, and if I absolutely need to, I can revert back to Ubuntu 7.04.

Oh, and I found out what Ubuntu is:

Ubuntu is an African word meaning ‘Humanity to others’, or ‘I am what I am because of who we all are’. The Ubuntu distribution brings the spirit of Ubuntu to the software world.

So, happy Blending to all!
