Free-licensed art for free software games: OpenGameArt.org

| Having such a pool of resources available to game developers will
| make it much easier to get over that first hurdle of getting a
| playable game, as well as making it possible to develop entire
| small games using free resources. This will make it easier for
| games to reach a âcritical massâ where they can attract
| contributions on their own. Also, I think having cool graphics to
| work with will probably inspire developers who might otherwise not
| even consider launching a game project.

| I recently started to gather information and research in order to
| implement for Blender some system for Voxel sculting, or free
| sculpting like 3D Coat has brought to light (though the term is
| nothing new). Currently IÂm in very early stages so donÂt expect to
| much for now, I just want to inform that IÂm on the road and open
| to collaboration with other devs and of course any help from the
| community is always very appreciated and needed.

4 + 1 ways to celebrate the Software Freedom Day
,----[ Quote ]
| Maybe the most important thing you can do that day is learn more about
| Software Freedom and reflect on how it applies to you and your community.
| Checkout The Free Software Definition, learn Why Schools Should Use
| Exclusively Free Software and understand why Your Freedom Needs Free
| Software. Donât take these at face value; think about them, and form your own
| opinion. Then act.

| 2.49. The announcement of the new version is here, including details on many
