Todd Petersons' Blog

Welcome to my 3d blog.  For those that don’t know me, I’ve been involved in 3d since 1992.  My involvement has spanned a wide range of interests in 3d from Architectural Visualization to writing to teaching to E-Learning.  This post is mostly a placeholder for now for this blog so it shows up on the main page.  However, in the future, I hope to add entries such as tutorials on how to do things (there are a ton of tutorials already on the net, so hopefully I have some interesting stuff) and hopefully just generally chatting about 3d and in particular 3ds max, houdini, or modo.  For now, I’m working on rebuilding this site and updating a lot of things while trying to find a job or some work in this terrible economy.  So as I have time I’ll add to this category.  Till then, thanks for stopping by!

Hello everyone.  As I mentioned on my home page I had to move hosting servers.  This move is mostly complete now, but I’m still updating some things.  This blog being one example.  The reason I chose to change hosting providers is that my previous hosting provider (who I had been with for years) has just been having one problem after another for the last year.  The quality of their service dropped enormously and last week, I’m not sure what happened, but all my databases got deleted and they could not restore them.  This happened to inlcude the DB controlling my blog on the old server, so all of that is now gone.  I never backed it up locally because they are supposed to keep it backed up there.  I just backed up all the pages of the site and what not.  Either way, thet lost my entire blog, all of my photos gallery (some 150 photos) and 5 years worth of website tracking data.  For me, that is more than enough to change hosts…..   So hopefully this new host will work better for me.  I hope to update my blog more than I have in the past, but we shall see, it just depends upon time and my interest level.
