2. MOST IMPORTANT! Curves -> weighted Tangents!!!!!!!
3. Click the Box mid-lieft for ‘free tangent weight’
4. Press ‘w’ for move
5. MMB to move. WHEW. Talk about NOT USER FRIENDLY

Okay, not totally, but I just found out you can keep a lot of s&*$ out. You can under the from: field use a portion for portion@portion.portion and it will filter out those messages! handy for all those annoying groupons, livingsocials, and smart spam sites!

Another Mystery solved!
Apparently its not as easy as clicking an option like it is in firefox. But if firefox can’t get their act together, so be it.

I guess this is what it is. Why can’t the vfx boys stand up for themselves?? Is it because for every 10 people there’s 9 shmucks willing to take whatever they can get?

Guys, didn’t we just kill ourselves to learn and study and learn all this stuff only to have it shoved back down our throats when we’re unable to spend any time with family, paying rent, or just mrely surviving? ARGH…..
