Hi everyone,
Advance Software is pleased to announce the opening of our Christmas themed 3D website design competition.
For further details, please see : http://advance-software.com/discuss
For an independent consideration of our new technology, please see : http://maxforums.org/Thread.aspx?tid=530850
We're running the competition to enable us to start to work with the graphics community to explore what is possible using our technology, and to help us understand where we need to focus future R&D in order to address current limitations.
The submission specification is deliberately vague to enable you to innovate, but basically, make it fun !
The competition will not be judged (for the most part) by graphics gurus, so technical excellence, though appreciated by some (myself included), is not enough. Your target audience is the general public, not the graphics community. The general public does not care how many polys are in a model, they care (for example) if they recognize Santa.
You can make a basic 3D website in a couple of hours. Obviously, the quality will depend on how much work you put into it, but you should be able to build something you're happy with by the deadline. Advance Software will assist as much as possible.
Like all website development, extending your site into three dimensions is going to be an ongoing process. Your submission for this competition can be amended after Christmas to fit whatever theme you want on your site in the New Year, or to fit our next competition requirements (you'll have the basics in place by then).
We'll be running a user interface competition early next year. For the time being, you'll have to make do with our basic template UIs.
Comments, questions welcome.
Best regards,
Steve Williams
