Thank you Fidel,

Yes, the character is a bit funny.  See my response to Fernando.

I was going to let it go, but since both you and Fernando have commented on it, I see
it may be a sticky point for the IRTC judges.  Still, I'm not sure what to do about
it.

I'm afraid I'm not familiar with Character Studio or its capabilities.
The only tools I've used for my character animation macros are POVRay, a calculator,
graph paper, pencils, live models (me and everyone else I see), and a 4-year
engineering degree (hey it's good for something after all }:8} ).

Thanks again for your comments.

Tom Bates.
