  1. Thank you for your informative replies to this thread and your post about Maya LT in the other place. I didn't even know about the subscription option until your post about it there.

Some people who have it won't want to say, and others will lie and say they have it when they don't. The people who have formal training tend to downplay its importance but acknowledge that it kept them focused, like IvanBenjamin just did. what kind of education background will count as formal training in CGI? The answer to that varies by person. I'll give the way I look at it below, as a person whose degrees are in another field. When I hear "formal training" I take that to mean that the person has a degree or substantial coursework from an accredited school. Then there are all sorts of other levels of training. These can be unaccredited certificate programs, online tutorial companies, taking mini courses here in SL, and/or just grabbing tutorials as needed from things like YouTube. If I understand from reading up on the subject, any of these can work if you are dedicated and follow through. I'm starting to learn a 3D program myself and I'm trying to go the route of using online tutorials.
  3. I got to attend the presentation by Ebbe Linden today. There were lots of questions answered about SL and the coming platform, and I feel like I have a much clearer understanding of where to focus my efforts in the near term. It's kind of a shame that these sorts of "town halls" aren't held more often. (Or maybe they are and just aren't well publicized like this one was?) I feel like so much confusion could be avoided inworld if there was more direct contact with residents as there was today. It's not just having someone take questions for 90 minutes or so, although that's important too. Even having different Lindens inworld and chatting, as they did before and after the event, helps humanize the company. All in all, it was a nice time. If someone could point me towards some similar educational or cultural events/groups I would appreciate it. I'd love to get involved in some non-roleplay events.
