We recommend to you a site that offers many kinds of collectables . Their specialty is figures and figurines of cartoon characters, hence their name. However, since that isn't the only thing they offer, you need to check it out. Sometimes you will find some real bargains there. Besides, it is our son's site out in California. To go there click on their logo below.
Steve and Heidi Truax
Steve and Heidi are friends of ours who are both artists. Between them they create portraits, wood carvings and egg carvings (an endeavor we find fascinating in its delicateness). They call their web site Treasured Moments and we think you will find a visit there quite interesting. Their internet address is: http://home.att.net/~stevetruax/
Every so often we all run across something that is a standout in terms of excellence when it is compared to its contemporaries. Such is the case with a 3d font graphics program called
FONT F/X
At a time when far too much of the software we use doesn't live up to its hype and is full of bugs FONT F/X, if anything, exceeds its claims. It is easy to use, uses any true-type font you have in your Windows font file, creates great graphics, and as far as we can tell it never crashes. And oh yes, it is just plain fun to play around with!
You can see many examples of what it can do on this web site because it is what we used to create the titles for our pages.
Before anyone asks, the answer is, "no, we don't own stock in the company." We just thought a little pat on the back is due to anyone who produces such an excellent product.
You can find out more about FONT FX at their company's web site:

If you are like we are you enjoy seeing things from times gone by. While surfing we ran across a neat site that has clothing from the 1960's all the way back to the Victorian era. Verrrry Interesting! Check it out!

Create 3D Images From WMF Files
There is a new 3D graphics program out from Serif that allows you to create 3D images from WMF files. You can do all the rotate, sizing, light source, bevels, stuff you can do with other 3D programs. We recommend this one to you for two reasons.... using WMF image files as the source gives you a huge resource base, and even when you add the associated Resource CD this software doesn't cost an arm and a leg. In fact it is downright CHEAP. To learn more about it click on the 3D Plus image below.
