Great, great. A very nice ambassador for Blender. Really understands the beginner, things as simple as resetting the 3d cursor, finding your work after a clumsy keystroke, all explained. The kind of troubles a beginner gets into. Easy to fix, but hard to find if you don't already know. Just the right amount of repetition to make it stick without getting monotonous. One trouble I have... modern publishing. I have managed to demolish the cdrom contained in the paperback volume which offers little protection. Any way to find these files out there, somewhere? I am stuck just past multires sculpting. I picked up the hard copy of your book on amazon. Great, great. A very nice ambassador for Blender.

But the CD-ROM is maybe corrupted. I cannot find any of example files mentioned in the Chapter concerning lighting (Discussion part) from Mathias Pedersen. Can these files be downloaded somewhere?

Is there somewhere I can download all the lighting examples like the "studio lighting" (using 3 x area lights, chrome ball and cylinder) as these seem to have been missed on the DVD. many thanks for a great resource!

Did I missed anything, did I do anything wrong?
