Cool, checked it out.

Interesting way to make cool alphas! Illustrator is great if you ask me for that stuff.

Dekepod - the first I've heard of it, thanks for the tip!

That movie is awesome, that guy is hilarious. Now I need illustrator. Well at least I'll watch more of his videos to see if its worth the money. Anyway the dialogue blew my hair back.

Thanks again,
Brandon
