Hiya.

Well, I still think a company should make a manual and that manual should be the definitive info-holder to what the program can/can't do. Caligari's "Pro-Team" tutorials are WAY overpriced if you ask me. They should all be free. If they pay their tutorial makers, they should have worked out some kind of 'compensation' style payment...and not $$$. For example, I'd have set it up so that each tutorial contributor would get, say, $100 off their next tS update. If that update would be priced at $300, then if they write 3 tutorials, they basically get a free update to the next paid-for tS upgrade/date. This wouldn't "directly" cost them money, and it encourages them to keep doing it...and they have the latest up to date version to make more tutorials for.

I think the caligari tutorials shouldn't cost more than the fricken' program...

"basic" tutorials = $1367.00
"master" tutorials = $869.00

...Grand Total for all tutorials = $2236.00

So it's basically over $3000 to buy tS and learn how to use it via their tutorials. And this seems "ok" for some people? x2
