CG Group Dynamics
It is interesting to watch how a collective group of individuals in a CG-related forum interact.
For one, a long discussion can actually be an eye opener. You get to know the minds of the members and thereby become basis for determining their levels of intellect and passion in their work. It doesn't mean that opposing views mean an opponent in the truest sense, rather the reverse - the ones that raise the most meaningful arguments are the ones that do it in a manner which is entirely subjective but recognizably valid. You get to respect the personalities behind them.
However, the skill inevitably should come first. It is a prerequisite in a demanding industry where preset evermotion 3d models and settings are the norm.
I do recognize that in a public forum, being free, expectations are not as high as running a team working on a specific goal. But is a good platform to determine the upcoming shakers and movers in the industry.
In the end skill alone is not enough, attitude is most definitely a major determinant. The only way to see that online is not only through the quality of their jpegs but the sense of their words.

Test Drive D90
The D90, Nikon's latest amateur DSLR. This gizmo is great.. wouldn't bother with getting the D300 anymore since the image processing and quality is practically the same, if not better (and for S$1000 more? no way). The D3? Out of my (pocket) league.
Funny thing though, color comparisons with the images between this and my D40 made me realize that - I prefer the output of the D40.. Although in high ISOs, the D90 delivers great images. Plus now, I can autofocus with my 50mm 1.8f/d lens. What's more the D90 has Live View and a great 3.0" screen. And did I mention the D90 can already record movies?
For now, I still need to play with the color modes. One thing's for sure - The D90 is gonna kick some serious SLR butt.
