on 10/27/2009 I just wanted to add that I found out that it’s now possible to make pictures of products in 3D, even cars. I think this will increase online sales for cars, just imagine your car on your your screen in 3D…I tried it with mine and they liked it so much so that they asked me to allow them to put it on their website…well anyways check out the result on ( http://3dbin.com/public/crtxclfv ) ! (It’s the nice black Audi S3 … with black BBS Challenge Rims and full 3inch exhaust from the Turbo to the End J )
