Using the link button to insert a link with highlighted text isn't working with the Cafe Cinema 01 theme. Quite a nice theme and I prefer the blocks on the right hand side to having them on the left hand side as with the Cafe Cinema 02 theme. Looks like you're tinkering with the forum index page. Have fun

I depart and Rantin Al returns. Good to have you back

Excellent. This is the type of communication I'm talking about :) Thanks Nigel

Thanks for your kind words Jim. StCanas / Karls post prior to this one by me sums things up very well. While it's been great to get Maxon's product manager posting here in the forums and other Maxon staff they have done virtually nothing to communicate what they are doing about people's concerns. While I don't expect them to tell us what's coming they could and should tell us what they are doing about Team Render and Team Render Server to make it more reliable. That would be an excellent start. Next up would be some of the long standing bugs and give some explanation as to why they won't address them. There could be very reasonable reasons that once we knew them we could accept and understand. I've been following Modo since 301 (spent more on Modo and Modo tutorials than C4D) and seen the stark contrast in communication from the developers towards their users. Maxon's communication is bad, really bad. Modo's is exceptional. Because it's that good and Modo 901 does a lot things much better than C4D does I'm prepared to put up with the occasional crash and the odd bug. Modo 901 once they fix a few bugs is a game changer for hobbyist 3D users in my opinion. For US $1299 I got Modo 901 that beats Cinema 4D R16 Studio that costs US $3695 in many areas and virtually all of the areas that interest me. Yes I know what's coming in R17 and I'm being very careful not to give any indication of what might or might not be in it. People will have to wait. Nigel
