Sentinel Weekly News

Latest News from This Week

Deighv tells us "I haven't heard anything to the contrary from Toxic so the planned return of 3DP is around the first week or so of October. Many have wondered what happened to our very own alicewhiterabbit. She has just contacted me and gave me with the sad news that her father passed away and RL has been beating her up a bit but she says she will be back with us soon.

3dpNet continues to get new Members, I might have to actually start updating the site soon, hehe! It has been raining so much here the past few days I have started designing an ark, I'll get back to you on that. Once the rain stops, and when the leaves start to turn, I will try to get some local pics of the fall color show. So long till next week!"

New Recipes

We have Dave's "Po’ Man McRib" today! Of course, there is "Ugly Soup", "Dave's EZ Fudge", Medeusa's "Untomato" and more at our Recipe page: Recipes.

Introducing: CVN Photography!

Sadly, we have received no feedback. This feature will probably be gone by next week's issue. The audience of the Sentinel still has first look at our new photography page.

Your thoughts and suggestions are important to us.

This page is far from finalized, but we are certain you can have fun exploring what we have on the page. And THAT is the point of presenting it to you. We do hope to get some feedback from you too! Take a look and tell us your thoughts :)

Last Week's News

Planned return for 3DPlanets is still around the first week of October. Our deepest condolences go out to Cheyla who lost her father this past week. Be strong Chey, your 3DP family is here for you. The kids are back in school! Yippee! New movies on the ePod are “Oblivion” and “World War Z”. We are trying to raise $100 by mid-October to help cover costs for yearly hosting and storage charges for 3dpNet, hellhouse.ca and other 3DP related storage/hosting. Donations can be made via the DONATE button in 3dpNet or by contacting me (deighv@live.ca). Have a great week now eh!

Latest News from Last Week

by Founder deighv
Expected date for 3DP's return is still around the first week of October. Quite a few new members for 3dpNet since 3DP has been down.

The ePod has been around in one form or another since the 2nd year 3DP was open. Currently it displays links for the eRadio and eCinema. We have 9 movies on the eCinema right now, all current releases are converted to a format that everyone with broadband should be able to stream full-screen with minimal loss of detail.

New movies are added when available. Once you open either the Radio or Cinema from the ePod you can bookmark their URL so you can open them directly anytime, anywhere.

I will be adding more 3D Worlds to the 3D Chat Menu soon. If you, or somebody you know, has a VRML World that you would like displayed WITH chat in 3dpNet then please contact me at deighv@3dpnet.ca

Did you know that you can get your very own 3dpNet email address? Link is at the top of the main MENU. (example) YourNickname@3dpnet.ca will open your new 3dpnet email account at Outlook.com. Cool huh?
