      • Adam Sklar says:

        We should have something here for people that say they are the first, either have the comments automatically removed, or automatically moved below everyone else’s posts.

        Hello Guys what”s wrong with u

        What’s ur problem? when i comment that i was first

        Reason please………………………………

      • Travis says:

        The problem is most people write “I’m FIRST!!” when 1. They don’t realize the posts are being moderated and just because there are not any up, doesn’t mean you’re first. 2. NOBODY CARES IF YOU’RE FIRST OR NOT!. We’re not 12 years old and get a lollipop for being first in line. 3. Most people that write first don’t have any intentions of even utilizing the tutorial. (I”m not accusing you of this, but you asked the question)

      • Terminator says:

    isn’t that weird how the clouds are moving in the preview? the foreground ones are hardly moving but the background clouds are moving really fast?? doesn’t make sense to me

    Thanks everyone for the positive critics.

    @Rich: Nice to meet you. The collective imaginary is too common!

    @opp: It’s real footage. So, there must have been lots of wind on the background ;)

    Very nice tutorial, but I missed an explanation on how to create the vanishing point file. I’ll look for it in google but thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge
