    want to convert your image to ILDA?

    want to convert your image to ILDA?

    Yes, if you have an SVG file or similar instead of JPG, BMP, PNG, GIF, TIF, TGA, etc. and it does not have embedded pixel data, then you can use automatic tools like the one above.

    very cheap tools for creating laser 3d animations

    If there are any questions you can ask here. The manual is a little old. Thinking of writing my own. If you're new to Blender, blender.org and Blender Cookie | Great Blender tutorials and training are great sites for tutorials.

    Re: STICKY-Eye or camera damage which is in most danger?? And I never said that's what you meant. I warned newcomers what not to assume from what you said.
