ROFLOL Under the present circumstances i feel somewhat disrespectfull
showing such
mirth, but an injection of lighter issues was most welcome.
The visual images this written description caused me, could well form the
basis of a highly amusing

projects, atomic Anims are
mostly easy essentially comprising lots of spheres and cylinders, with few
textures.
Thanks
