Talk:Blender 3D: Noob to Pro/Tutorial Links List

To Do

 * Probably is good idea to mark author, quality, version, level, format (pdf, flash, java)...etc of tutorials somehow. UTF-8 caracters are useful, but problem is that Window$ IE usually don't show them all.

Here are some useful UTF-8 caracters for this purpose:

or we could have Window$ safe caracters:


 * !? - ok, but probably not the best
 * ! - good
 * !! - excellent
 * ***** - five stars for the best
 * 2.36 - Blender version compatibility

ElYsiun Discussion
We also talk about this Module on www.elysiun.com.

Sorry Popski
(Official Blender Documentation) Sorry for deleting w/o discussing, but those links are wierd... One is linking to the first of two parts of the current blender doc. One other is for the old blender doc, but the one at the top (which i kept) is linking to a page -> linking to all official docs. Either we remove the two second links (again), or add all the links on the "official docs" page which the first link is reffering to.


 * It's ok, you were right about Blender Documentation Links, but discussion before delete is a fair play here, also don't be just a number and sign up, it's free. --Popski 15:41, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

How to write a Blender WikiBook?
It's easy. Just make link with Blender 3D: BookName in Blender 3D module and start to write. But if you will write some Blender tutorial it's probably better place to put it in Blender 3D: Noob to Pro WikiBook where is proper place for all classical Blender tutorials. --Popski 15:41, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

French
In Blender 3D: Tutorial Links List are only links to English tutorials. I noticed that some users started to add there also tutorials in other languages. So I will move them temporary here since there is no such WikiBooks.
