Building Nancy Drew

TOT, TOT, TOT. That's all you'll find on the lips of anyone here. But you can absolutely bet, that a few brains are still set on the future. In fact I took a gander at our 'make-shift' render-farm here in the office. For those of you unfamiliar, it's pretty much a hub for processing art quicker than doing it on a single computer. It certainly helps us work through all those fancy animations.
