     Ha, yeah, I didn't think of it like that, but I do know what you mean. 
I think it was Gilles that first posted here about Wings a couple of years 
ago, (three?) and up until that point, I was using sPatch and Hamapatch, 
(which are good, nothing wrong with them imo), but then things became easier 
when following the tuts he posted. I love Blender, I've played around with 
it a lot, (and I know it's so much more powerful than Wings), but yes, it's 
the interface that does it for me. I want to get on with the job, and 
Blender restricts that just for trying to find something. Ah, I dunno, maybe 
I'll give it a *serious* try someday...  :)
