OT but interesting: This morning I've been playing around with Wordle (http://wordle.net/), "a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text." I entered the RSS-feed for this forum into Wordle and got this. Pretty poetic.

It's really fun to play with and if you're into graphic design a tool like this can be very helpful. You can't save the cloud as say JPEG (without taking a screen shot) but if you choose to print it you can print as PDF and then open in Photoshop.

Aye, cool.

I also like the entirely coincidental 'projection anything frontal'. :)

Cool. Now we only need eps vector output and we can use it in C4D.... come to think of it this should be implemented into the Mograph module. :-)
