Extruded text in papervision3d, with the help of some real brains…
Yesterday 
Den Ivanov posted a png extruder class at the papervision3d mailing list.
So, within an hour or so I had an experiment with BitmapData grabbed from a textfield rotating around in extruded 3d 
Nope, still not even as good as the oldschool windows 3dtext screensaver (the barometer for all that is cool in this world). Certainly not for production (unless you happen to have a deep rooted fetish for EXTREMELY pixelated extruded rotating 3d text), yet, more 1337 than my previous attempt 
.
Behold:
what’s that? 360Flex Milan ?? You know you wanna register and see me there!!! (along with some AMAZING speakers).
