This week in AWN's Forums, a student wants others to weigh in on the pros and cons of two year versus four year degrees. Other members continue to chime in about their thoughts on Showtime's 3D series TRIPPING THE RIFT. Another junior member rants about never having enough time just sit back and draw. In another thread, a junior member asks how others brainstorm ideas for their next project. Some of our members have started a new blog calling for another member to come back to the forums because they love him. The new hot news topic in the forum is Disney's purchase of the Muppets – log in and add your thoughts. And we're also at 100 replies to one of the most popular threads, which contains member animation. Also, tools for teaching animation, the business of animation and, as always, brand new stuff to check out in show and tell!
