Collected Blender Resources

So yea, I've spend a lot of time in Blender lately because it's so cool!

Blender 2.59 was recently released, and I can't wait for the 2.60 release which will include Google Summer Of Code stuff as well! You can do stuff like this:

Blender 2.59 has cool add-ons such as:
