We've been asked for more examples of how our tools can tie together in different ways. Here's a great (and fun) example:
We now have the ability to export 3D texture maps in Hummingbird, which means that you can save your 3D models as autostereograms, and publish your own custom "Magic Eye style" book!
Stereograms are those potentially frustrating texture images where you shift the focus of your eyes (i.e. by crossing them or trying to see double) and see a hidden 3D object in the texture. For those of you who have never seen a stereogram before there's a great explanation at Wikipedia. Some people can see it, some people can't.
So how would it work? Simple. First a user makes a 3D model in Hummingbird and then chooses to export it as a stereogram.
Hummingbird then makes a 3D black and white texture map of the current scene.
Next a user chooses a texture pattern that can be applied. A user can make their texture in Phoenix (or in Peacock, Raven or Tern), can upload one from their desktop, or can use someone else's texture.
We then automatically generate the stereogram as an image file:
See the hummingbird and torus?
Here's another image with the same scene and a texture thrown together in Phoenix.
Finally, a user can lay out their collection of stereograms (or other people's stereograms) as a book in Owl, our desktop publishing tool, and offer their book for sale in our market. And of course Aviary would track all rights, royalties and attributions from everyone involved.

I always liked stereograms.. but it's not about relaxing your eyes or anything.. it's about focusing your vision. you don't have to wait until you see the forms.. if you know how to focus, you can start to see them in like 2 seconds. right.. this software would be nice to gave.

I am awed by the amount of work, and the spirit of universal access this upcoming generation of "Webtop" based software implies. However, i am not at all convinced that the great general public will really buy into it. As good as it is: 1. will it allow graphics tablets? 2. Will it access keyboard shortcuts? Finally, i fear that it is NOT in human nature to use software at a remote site. It seems obvious to me that everyone would prefer to own their software. It also raises questions of security, when creating corporate work. I am sorry, but i feel the whole Webtop idea is just a developer's fantsy, something for developers to er, develop, thus providing work. I realise that many BIG corporations, including Google & even Microtosh are 'committed' to the webtop philosophy, but i'd put money on it all fizzling out, like betamax and like DAB radio. At best it will provide tasters for new generations of artists, but those who find it cool and awesome (like they do) will then rush out and buy photoshop, or download GIMP or Inkscape.

It was the day of the big sale. Rumors of the sale (and some advertising in the local paper) were the main reason for the long line that formed by 8:30, the store's opening time, in front of the store.
