Added an
animation by
Malcolm Banthorpe, downloadable from the user gallery. Sorry, but yes, our free forum (so
did the free blogback system) was gone. If you have any suggestion
for a free forum,
let me know.

to get help and share information. :)

Updated the
quick doc 'glTIP.txt' (included in the download) with a note about
output size: the output movie size is the same as what is rendered in
the 3D scene window of glTIP, and the only way to change the output
size is to resize the main window before you go to the output step.
Sorry guys for the inconvenience. And I'd also like to let you know
that currently I have no plan to create a new version of glTIP. If enough of you
ask for it, maybe we can reconsider that. ;-) You can give your
public comments regarding this using the comment link that follows
this headline.

Added in the download page a link to an article
(in Chinese) reporting our first exhibition back in 1999. Updated the
quick doc with the solution to the error 'invalid numerical Input', and
the executable so that the about box shows 'alpha 0.9a' as stated in
the download page. Also fixed some link
errors.

Added a pdf in the download page showing some production images
for the video by David and Anvar.

Added a user gallery in the download page, the
first entry being a short made by David Almstrom and Anvar Arteaga from
Sweden.

If you
experience an error of 'invalid numerical Input', it's probably because
the language setting of your Windows system uses ',' instead of a '.'
for denoting the decimal point. To fix that, you can replace all ',' by
'.' in the plain text .tip and .cam files, or just change your language
setting.

Thanks to those
who sent me email regarding glTIP. Because of your emails, I know there
are still people interested in our software. ;) I have always wanted to
rewrite glTIP using GLScene and Graphics32, two excellent graphics
library. However, I have another project which is more important in my
hands, and I'm not sure when can I have time to rewrite glTIP....
Thanks to the
web tracker I use for my site, I know there are students from other
universities or institutes worked on Tour Into the Picture projects,
e.g. this one
(they're linking to my site).

Added an
animation made from a painting by Chen Pei Qui, a Chinese painting
master from Shanghai, China. She visited our university from October to
December 2001. I also added the credits for the animations. See them in
the Download page.

Finally put up
the animations that we made in 1999. Downloadable from the Download page.

Added 3 more
sample projects in download page. No

animation is added in the download page too. Enjoy! ;-)

Downlaod page updated. You will find a "more
stable" version of glTIP + a quick doc on how to use it. A sample
project is also downloadable.

The "TIP
showcase" presentation is finally up on the plasma display installed in

welcome.
