LightWave 7.5
The first look at NewTek’s latest
by Stephen Schleicher
Last week NewTek announced they would be demonstrating LightWave 7.5 in New York on Thursday April 25. With that announcement, users believed they would see a downloadable version sometime following. The good news is you don’t have to wait a week to find out what the new features are, nor do you have to be in New York to see it for yourself. Here is your first look at the latest upgrade to LightWave 3D.

AppleTalk over the Internet
Networking Mac OS X machines that sit behind routers
by David Nagel
It's been a while since I've provided tips on Mac OS X, and I thought I'd drop you a quick one today. I get this question occasionally from pros who need to transfer files between their home and work machines when one or more resides behind a router. It's a quick process, but one that isn't immediately obvious for those who don't do much networking.

Fast, Simple Web Effects with Adobe Illustrator
How to create unique Web animations using Illustrator 10 and LiveMotion 2
by Steve Holmes
Designers who work in Adobe Illustrator software are well familiar with its print design capabilities and vector graphics handling. What Illustrator users may not realize is that the power to create fast, easy Web animations is right beneath their fingertips. From a simple blend of two Bezier lines to twisted distortions of logos, text and images, Illustrator 10 generates layered graphics that can be dragged as-is into LiveMotion 2 for animation.

Creature House Expression 2.4.1
Vector-based illustration suite
by David Nagel
Expression 2 is a program that tries to merge two very different approaches to digital art: raster painting and vector illustration. We've seen vector-based programs of late try to tack on some "artistic" features, and we've certainly seen paint and image editing programs integrate vectors into their toolsets. But Expression 2 is really the only cross-platform program on the market that truly combines the two.

SCRI Says Video Equipment Sales To Climb
2002 to see 34 percent gain
by David Nagel
According to a report from research firm SCRI International, video equipment sales will climb 34 percent in 2002 compared with 2001. The market for video equipment declined by $2.4 billion in 2001 from 2000. While the expected gain this year won't bring sales back to their 2000 level, it does represent a comeback that reflects renewed optimism in the market.
