[Papervision3D] Flash CS4 Polar Cube (one-to-one mapping)

[usppro]

How Long Is A Piece Of String...lolx

...And, who said FP9 had 97% penetration. What Adobe!? Its sounds good
doesn't it, 97%. What they've been around everyones computer and checked =]

The question is who are you targeting. Your competitors, thats the crowd
reading this mail, they'll be able to see it but if you are targeting a
public institution or business they could be using FP8 or even lower.

I use to ask silly questions like this to thats why i'm responding. 

Now cathelper. Build it and use express install, why give people choices,
they don't know what they want or do the wrong things quite often with them
- like enabling/allowing the polar bears to become extinct.

Transcend your human limitations and tell the world to SAVE THE POLAR BEAR!
You can do that through your art you know. Isn't that why...
