Open source 3D modeling program

Saw this today on one of the computer boards that I frequent.

http://www.blender3d.org/
Supported Platforms
Mac OS X
Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP, ME, NT (i386)
Linux i386
Linux PPC
FreeBSD 4.2 (i386)
SGI Irix 6.5
Sun Solaris 2.8 (sparc)

I downloaded it and played with it for a few minutes, looks really nice. I'm going to try to learn how to use it just as soon as I have some spare time.

Yeah, Blender rocks... It was originally a commercial 3D product, but a few years ago their company NaN (Not A Number) went under, and the developement stopped. Through donations they raised like $100,000 and were able to make it open source for everyone. Which is nice... since not everyone has $2,000 to spend on 3D products like Maya.

I'm looking foward to trying out the new gaming engine... I think we need a webmaster street fighting game..lol.
