I've been downloading some of the free 3D tools I've seen on the site to begin the learining process (Blender3D, DeleD Lite, Wings 3D so far). My wife has her degree in art, but hasn't done any computer type stuff before. Does she have to understand much in programming to do graphics for me? Or will she be able to design what I need without having to understand the programming side? She has no desire to learn programming. I'm willing to learn graphics stuff, but I have no imagination whatsoever. I'm therefore utterly incapable of producing anything on my own. I'm really hoping this might work out. Also, are there other ones that I should download and look at? We just had our first child this a few months ago and I can't afford the expensive packages right now... Maybe one of these days, but not right now, so it has to be free or pretty low cost at this point (I looked at Lightwave and the price scared me off immediately at this point).

Thank you,
Ron
