A lot of companies run sales around the major holidays, which would include Christmas (there was a 50% off sale then as well), 4th of July (in the U.S.) and Labor Day. I came here to see if anyone else had used the coupon for their upgrade and am glad to see it applies! Yay! So that's in part why I ...

I've done a little music here and there. Please check my links. :) Very complicated question you have there. I'm assuming you don't want to spend a lot right now and need this to be simple. If you're on a Mac, Garageband might be worth looking into. If you're on a PC, there is Sony Acid. These two m...

I think Manga Studio is more of a pixel app. Here's the thing... if you have Poser5, then I might lean more towards Manga Studio. Since you can only choose one item. It really depends on what you want to do with it. If you don't think you need it/will use it - then there's no point to having either....

I picked up Manga Studio as it was something that was sitting in my wishlist for a while. $99 seemed like an unbeatable price. My previous best as a Poser user was about double that. I haven't had a chance to play with it much yet, but I've very happy to have gotten it. Seems like a lot of things wi...

I heartily second Animation Meat! And of course the Bauhaus forum...

I'm assuming you guys know who they are.

Now if we could only get a better handle on curtailing the "porn" and viagra spam.

Unless people like that sort of thing.

But it is definitely a great community here!!!

A proper book can be an expensive prospect, but I think it would be a great idea. Perhaps even if only as a downloadable e-book. I think a book specifically tailored to AS but with some broader overview as well would be a cool thing. As Fahim says, as AS becomes more popular, perhaps this will becom...

I hardly ever have any trouble at Content Paradise. Perhaps the servers were just very busy due to last minute people also trying to get the free Poser 5?

That additional software offer is fantastic. An opportunity for Moho users to get some excellent programs at exceptional prices. I definitely hope to take advantage for the items that I don't already have.

Thanks very much for that Mike and Fahim!!!

I think of Mirage as kind of a hybrid between Painter (in some ways) and After Effects. It's bitmap - based. You can import things you scanned, but also draw directly within the program - especially if you have a tablet. Which I think is what the original poster was looking for. So, it's nice that y...

Nobody seems to be worried about Bauhaus over at the Bauhaus forums. As a Bauhaus user it seems that you're entitled to an upgrade version of TVPaint, so I don't think you lose by being a Bauhaus owner. (at least from what I understand) And Bauhaus/TVPaint/Aura or whatever you want to call it is pre...

You might want to make sure that you are set up to receive special announcements via email.

Well, if Anime Studio becomes successful at e-Frontier, I'm sure there will be plenty of additional content and tutorials in the future.

Nice presentation at e-Frontier! Congrats to Mike and the crew and best of luck with the new product!!!

It sounds like some of us are expecting tons of new features. I'm expecting new content mainly, a new splash screen, and possibly some tweaking to the visual appearance of the program itself. Other than that possibly a couple things here and there - but nothing really major until the next release. G...
