As much as I don't like flash I do like it how It makes this stuff easy for some one like you to use.

The camera rotating looked a bit iffy on some parts in Team Up. It was fun to see that you got lazier on drawing the characters at the end or something, that's how it looked to me.

@Pinball, I'm looking to get into Blender, and have free access to just about every published book on the subject, what would you recommend for a noob to 3D design with Blender, if you've used any published books.  If not, where did you learn to use Blender?

Although I'd rather you use 3ds max so I can help ya out, I'm still ecstatic that you're interested in 3d!

I learned it by doing simply tutorials and working up to more advanced ones, so I can't recommend a book.  As for tutorials I suggest you start out by doing the things on the 'Blender noob to pro' wikibook page.
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro

When you get more advance I suggest these tutorial sites, they release something at least once a week and it's with the newer version of Blender.

I appreciate the enthusiasm, it's just I can't justify spending that kind of money (especially when I'm trying to reform from pirating), and Blender is free, open source, and from what I'm reading, a viable contender to the proprietary alternatives.

@Pinball, thanks a bunch, I'll be sure to take a look.  Expect to see some likely crappy products here in the near future, hopefully working up to something a bit more experienced in the not so distant future.

Looking over the noob to pro wiki, I forgot that it's all done with version 2.49 or before.  The newer version has a different gui so you might have to search around for a button, the hot-keys should all work though, except adding a mesh is now shift A instead of space-bar.  Basically the horizontal bar on the bottom of the older version is now the vertical bar on the right in the newer one.

This page explains where most of it went from version to version.
