Dear Jeremy, Thanks for this info. Unfortunally I use 3d max, so I am not able to use it, but is it just another reason to switch over to Maya.. I am very curious about the ascb image library!

Hey gnsi'ers, I wanted to give a big thank you, to the gnsi community! I just came back from the recent ascb meeting where I saw gael mcgill finally release "molecular maya" the toolkit for Maya, which is free for anyone using Maya and finally finally available! (Academic licenses for Maya are $350, although, molecular Maya is free, it requires Maya.) Check out http://www.molecularmovies.org and check out the toolkit At the conference, I heard lots of great feedback about the bioviz listserv and the broad range of participents, probably half of which, I'm guessing, come from the gnsi listserv. So thanks for helping me with http://bvig.nichd.NIH.gov I appreciate all the gnsi'ers around the world that have joined and provided input. I realize this bio viz interest group is probably outside general gnsi territory, but I think it's relevent, and it has been influenced from the gnsi listserv and it's members. Thank you! I wanted to also fill you in on the upcoming, publicly available, ascb image library, for cell biology images including microscopy, animation, video, illustrations and other data relating to cell biology, thanks to an arra grant and the blood, sweat and te It's bound to become a great reference for the community. It's being built on the open source "open microscopy environment", omero. More to come... Thank you, -Jeremy Need to leave or subscribe to the Sciart-L listserv?
