Due to the private nature of our community and the caliber of many members, 3D-PRO was intentionally kept low-profile for nearly 20 years. Members were discouraged from discussing it with others (except to invite them).
While we are still a private community — and access is limited — we are actively seeking to diversify our membership by attracting a new generation of talented and knowledgeable people working in CG and related fields. This is why we’re not quite as low-profile as we used to be.
(Plus, 3D-PRO was a terribly kept secret.)
