Superb magazine! - even the adverts - looks like I'm going to have to get me that Artisan plugin!

I also meant to say a big thank you for the awesome review you gave my book last month!

Wow, I made the Gallery again!! You keep this up and it's gonna go to my head!

Seriously, another great issue, Rich. How do you find the time to do things like this? I've only glanced thru it but I know there are a number of articles I'm gonna have to go back and check out more thoroughly.

Thanks for all your hard work :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

Ooops! Must have missed the last reminder - only just seen nos. 7 & 8. Just have to comment on Aiden Chopra's interior lighting technique in edition 7. I only present in SU rendering so its ideal for my work. Love it! :D

Looking good! Congratulations once again.

Something to check out though. On the iPad the pdf version does not show the images in pages 29 through 33 (except for the ad). And on the computer I find the links don't work for all the gallery images. The gallery links don't work at all on the Issuu version (are they supposed to?)

Thanks anyway. I am enjoying it very much. The stylus article is just what I needed. Really dig the moi3d article too.

Thanks Peter.

Regards the iPad....

The default iOS PDF viewer is not able to display interactive elements. Try the Adobe PDF app (free) or GoodReader. But work great.

I can't explain why the Gallery link on your PC aren't working? What PDF viewer are you using?

Issuu doesn't like the highlight on hover feature of the Showcase page. But I can fix for next issue. Good feedback

Once again the culprit is Apple. I use Preview for PDF, and for most things it is better than Acrobat. But there are some features it fails at.

Thanks, I'll look into your suggestions.
