Wait a Minute... Since when? I didn't even get a notification to this...
Searching notifications...
Nah Nothing... you don't get Notified for that anymore?
But still cool tho!

I think Its time to get back.
Tomorrow I got something interesting

Well, I was about to make the behind the scenes, if you didn't check it out, you totally should.
But that was the moment I noticed,

@CanIIA are you okay? I mean thanks, like this is awesome, but you commented on so many posts in a row, damn you going full psycho on me or what?
But thanks!

As announced by David, IPBoard, the software used to run the forums, has been updated to the latest version.
Unfortunately, changes to the theming framework broke the Mine-imator Forums theme that has been with us for almost 6 years now, so I had to put something together to keep a bit of that spirit intact.
However, please keep in mind that this theme is temporary. Some of you might already know that I've been working on a brand new design as part of the big rebrand/UI overhaul that's currently under progress. I've shared a few bits here and there, but I'll be making a proper announcement detailing all the changes once that's ready.
If anything broke during the transition process, do let me know!

Hey all!
Yesterday, I wrote an announcement regarding the surprise reveal of what was then going to be the new icon for Mine-imator going forward, and how the negative reception of it made me reconsider this design choice.
I took this opportunity to show you a different take on the icon, and judging by the overwhelmingly positive reactions, I think it's fair to say that we've got a winner on our hands! After a few minor tweaks and touch ups, I believe it's ready, waiting to be used once Mine-imator 1.3 launches.
But wait, what about Modelbench? Well, obviously I couldn't leave its icon untouched! After all, the goal of the rebrand is to unify both apps into one identity, so it's only natural to give it a fancy new icon as well! There was one challenge to overcome. What could we put in that colorful hexagon? Putting a bunch of cubes seemed like an obvious answer, but it just didn't look quite right... The Mine-imator icon had a 3D, Minecraft styled item inside that hexagon, so... Modelbench would have to follow that template, or else it just wouldn't work. But what kind of item should it be? What object is best suited to illustrate the modeling process?
What about a hammer? This was an idea from Nimi, that he had while we brainstormed. It could work, you can build stuff with one of those. The question was now, "what should it look like?". His proposal was a blacksmith's hammer, but I felt like it didn't fit the program's name too well. After all, it's called Modelbench, not Modelforge... (that would've been a neat name, though!) So, in the end, we settled on the good old claw hammer. And after a bit of quick rigging and tracing...

Here they are! The Mine-imator family now has its own set of icons! I hope you'll like it just as much as the one I've shown yesterday, and once again, please share any feedback you might have!
See you around!

nimi's asleep time to post some teaser

I've been excluded from class and got 3 hours of detention because I checked what time it is on my phone (damn, teachers are violent theses days)
I told that to my parents when I've been back home: My mom was like "that's much for just checking the time, but okay"
However, for my dad... oh god...
He said (violently) "if you do that again, i'll break your phone in front of you, and you won't get any phone until i'll be dead! From now, you won't be allowed to use your phone in highschool, not even during break! Now do your homework or I wreck your PC too."
I hope he wasn't 100% serious, because tbh, my phone and my PC are one of the only things that makes me happy, that disconnect me from all the stress of life.
I think my dad don't understand how important theses devices are for me, I mean I've learned many things, got new friends with thoses. For example, if I know how to speak english, it's because I've played minecraft during elementary school, but also others games in english. I've also watched many english videos. Sure, I learn english in school, but I wouldn't be that great if I don't use it everyday.
Anyways, I've made this status update to feel better, I'm not in depression, just really sad because of all of this sh*t that happened today. I'm sure I'll feel better tomorrow.
Thanks for reading this.

We have finally snow in France! ? 

"Sleep is for the wea-"

Hey look, I made a wall.
I made the model and textures by myself. I'm making this for a reason. It's still a WIP.
