    If you get rich and famous, remember who it was that changed you life.

Reminds me of the multi-millionaire that paid cash to build a sky-scraper. He
died as a boozing hobo on the streets.

There is a Java applet for posing blobman, but it can't do fingers, only
arms, legs and head.

Well, it used to be online, but the sites the author put it on dissapeared.
I can send it to you if you like. It's less than 300kb compressed.

I had _very_ limited needs when I did it. I just needed to easily pose
15 small characters. The problem is that while there is some genericity
in main body parts handling (and several strong inconsistencies too),
the rest is just different. I would help anybody wanting to expand it
though. Somebody contacted me a few weeks ago with some C++ port in
mind. I never heard of him since I released the code.

For those interested, it's here (BTW it's an application, not an applet:
it uses files):

Ooohh.... Java. Nice.

I'm active on the model converter now, but can also give some Java help and
advice on things. Java is good for POV-Users.  :-)
