You can get it here And a disclaimer - this post is not to advertise it, it's just to show off  |

| Project Lead on SFM Film  | Congrates on the publication, Will it get translated? One question why in the hell did they insisted on such an bad cover, when one of your pic would have done the job better? |

- I have no idea. I suggested using one of my pics (at least for the top part where they have the graphic right now) but they said it's not possible due to company identity issues. The publisher always did it like that and that's how they are doing it with my book. And quite frankly, you don't have much to say as a first time author. I'm more than happy that I didn't have to pay them for publishing it (cause that is quite common as well). So I guess I'm fine with the cover design  | |

| I'd love to read it, but unfortunately ich spreche nur kleine Deutsch. Wouldn't be able to follow anything technical like a CG book. |

| That seems to be interesting. I've just two questions: 1. Can you give us some examples of the content of the book? Is it for a special application? 2. Is there any chance that SFM users can get a discount?  And of course, congratulations on your fist published book. |

| Immediately? Why rush?! There are more appropriate methods, I think! Congratulations on getting published though, Matthias! |
