    They are ridiculously cute, though.

    It still makes me laugh every time i think about it.


    Me too. Isn't a job that would have suited the Welsh pony cross gelding I owned briefly. Obediant and biddable were words that didn't exist in his horsey little mind. Most of the time Max did exactly what Max felt like doing, and no more. If he didn't feel like going out for a nice long hack, then he wasn't going, and that was it, even with one in front pulling and one behind pushing, he would put the anchors on and say "NO" don't want to go out there. Take him back in the training ring and he would be a perfectly behaved horse. Even if taken into a large paddock he could be stubborn, although when he had a lunge whip cracked behind him we did once do a lovely bucking bronco act.

    Is there such a thing as an agoraphobic horse, who only felt safe with fences around him I wonder. Now that would be stupid.

    Yes, the minis are being used and classified as service animals. Don't be surprised if you see one in the grocery store or the movie theater. Hmmmm, maybe even Taco Bell. Naw, that would be too dangerous. I would love to have a mini horse. Or a miniature cow. But most especially I want a pygmy goat and none of my family will let me have one.

    I'm eating Girl Scout cookies a friend of mine sent from the 'States for breakfast. That's kinda stupid, right?

    ShareCG has free cacti, IIRC.


    I just checked (search: cactus, cacti), and there was no single cactus-prop. :down:

    But I found one at Adam Thwaites site!!

    Edit. Just got it, so the desert environment isn't as empty...

    I found Adam's Cactus to be quite good, so I put it into the scene, here:

    Wow, good stuff folks. The sign get's me Chohole. I'm trying to figure out just how you leave once you get there?
    @ Norse Graphics: I find nothing Stupid about your render. I guess it fit's because it's Stupid Good.
    As for you other assorted nuts, I just want you all to know I'm off cookies for awhile now.

    the only stupid thing i notice with the render is that the wagon is not covered. All their stuff will get wet when it rains and they will have no shelter from the rain or sun.

    Maybe it's a convertable. She presses a button or pulls a lever and the cover comes up.

    You so right... but under the wagon for the sun. Rain? By the time they see rain I bet they DANCE around in it.

    Stupid: for some reason I got in my mind cooking hot dogs is very difficult. Not sure why I think that.

    Wrap in aluminum foil, place securely on engine block, drive at highway speed for at least an hour.

    Pleasant dreams! The opposite of night-mares.

    I kid you not, but miniature horses are kept as seeing-eye horses.


    1) They live longer than dogs -- 30 years, easily.
    2) They are not prone to same problems as dogs, as they haven't been bred to depend on pack structure and praise. Yet, they easily bond with the owner.
    3) They are roughly as smart as dogs and have wider field of vision; they're herbivores, which means their idea of danger is different from carnivore's, one better suited for modern world.
    4) Unlike dogs, they don't get bored if all they have to do is stand still for hours.
    5) Some religions regard dogs as impure, but find horses acceptable.

    6) They keep the grass mowed and organically fertilized.

    If you work days, just leave the foil wrapped hot dog on your dash. My daughter baked a batch of cookies on her dashboard last year.

    I have a cupboard full of useless electic appliances I have bought over the years including a hot dog heater with bun warming spike.
    various food choppers, slicers & processors, meh! :roll: easier to wash a knife and chopping board!!

    A load of stupid: Man with world's largest [wiener] sparks airport security scare. (Mostly SFW, unless your workplace frowns on actual word for [wiener] and men in tights. Admit it: this is a whole load of stupid.)

    I'm a sucker for kitchen gadgets and equipment. Every cupboard and drawer is jammed full and the counter tops disappeared many years ago. I have overflow in the den, the garage, and the attic. I've started shopping at restaurant suppliers because they carry things I don't see in the other stores.

    That's just sensible. And now? My hoarding instinct has proven useful. A friend of mine is coming over here from the 'States for a year of exchange student life, and she needs all kinds of stuff to live here for a year. So I'm unloading things I've gathered so far. Extra mugs. Glasses. Plates. Cooking utensils. Craft supplies. Linen. Towels. Stuff like that.

    HELP!! I thought I would go here first. I need some CAVES, not stuff to put in caves but the CAVE. You know, a hole in the side of a hill. That kind of cave. I've tried the Dragons Lair, and SnaggleTooth Caverns but those are more inside a cave than a cave in a hill kind of things. I think it's STUPID I can not find a simple Cave for 3D.

    Oh! I just recently saw something that fits the bill. Hillside, with a cave hole entrance. Now, I wish I would recall where the hell I saw it -- it was not Rendo nor ShareCG, but some other site instead. Also, free. I can check real quick but I have to start packing in ten minutes, so.


    Failing that, if you can wait 'till my return (about 10+ hours + recovery time), I can try to put something together as an object, UV map it, and leave surfacing and texturing to you if I lose wind. Objects are easy -- not a problem, really. I just don't know if I have energy to texture.

    First Bastion's Hidden waterfalls has a cave behing it if you hide the water.
