Amazing pictures of Iceland's eyjafjallajokull eruption

Icelands volcanic eruptions and resulting ash clouds brought Europes air traffic to a complete standstill.
Even Sproing, the games company I work for, has been affected because some of our customers from abroad could not make it for a meeting.

Today one of our artists sent around a link to a page he had found containing incredible photograps of the eruptions. Really, I'm not easily impressed, but those belong to the most jawdropping images I've seen in a long time, even if not computer generated.

Ritalin updated for Maya 2011

Due to the changes to skin weight painting tools in Maya 2011 minimal changes to the paint weights tool panel integration code were required. (only artAttrSkinCallback.mel needed to be slightly altered compared to the version for Maya 2008 - 2010). The updated archive is available here:
