It is a great site and i erg everyone reading this that is interested in animation to sign up as you will learn so much from the massive amount of people that are one there.
Last night DJ did a Webinar with Dave Scotland on CGSwot.com where he gave a fantastic in detail tutorial on going from Blocking to Polish and also talked about Animation Salvation's features and what it can offer to you all.
