So you never answered my question NV. What program is that, that you keep posting screenshots with? Just curious.
[edit]
I'd also like to clarify something. What is the difference between a 'pick' and a 'pickaxe'? aren't they one in the same? :confused:

1. 3DS Max
2. ZB already clarified the difference
:cheeky:

Thanks.:)
I know he did, but that was vague. So that is the only difference? one has two pointy ends, one has just one pointy end and well you know...

Pick is a general term which includes pickaxe.
A pick, therefore, can have one or two pointed ends.
A pickaxe is a specific type that has one pointed end and a chisel-like edge at the other end.
If the pick has two pointed ends, it's not a pickaxe.

A square is to a rectangle as a pick is to a pickaxe.

Detail (Yes, I know...far too much, and unnecessary :D) :
Grime where one hand would grip near the end of the handle.
Grime where the other hand would grip near the head.
Wear on the handle where the second hand slides to meet the other hand during a driving stroke.
Dents and gouges near the tips of the head.
Dirt embedded in the rusty surface.
Pale wood, a length-wise split, nails driven into the wood where it's set into the head, and splinters for a dry, dessicated, sun-bleached, weathered one.
Mold growing on the grime, and a darkening of the wood, for one that sits in a perpetually cool, sunless, and damp environment.

Corrected. :cheeky:
All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares.
All pickaxes are picks, but not all picks are pickaxes.

That makes sense, thanks for clearing that up.:)
Doh, I feel like an idiot. Of course a pickaxe has one end with an axe shape. It has the word "axe" in it.:tsktsk:

Wow, you took one of my least favorite objects (read: I hated it) and made it into something I now want to put in just because it's so nice! :D
Yandros on 23/12/2007 at 03:09
Uhm... maybe it's just me but I see no stool... although I desperately need some nice barstools for DP2 so I hope they look as good as Digi says.
