Indigo lifetime licences

[benn]

We appreciate the support of everyone who has supported a licence for Indigo. Remember - if you are an Indigo user and are keen to use all future versions of Indigo and it's plugins for free - you should consider purchasing an Indigo licence. This will support Glare's marketing efforts to get Indigo out to more people, with a greater quality material database - as well as saying thank you to the plug in developers who are now paid by Glare Technologies.

295€ for unlimited future usage of all versions of the world finest unbiased raytracer, plus an Indigo 100 badge? That's extremely good value, you'll be the envy of future Indigo users.

Have you thought about advertising on sites?

Try
http://www.evermotion.org/vbulletin/index.php
or
http://3dtotal.com/

Or hell, even if you made a tutorial or two for indigo on http://cg.tutsplus.com/ it would get you some publicity.

You might even be able to talk Digital Tutors into letting you guys make some Indigo tutorials (But they would need to be very high quality sound, video, etc.)

Sorry if you've already considered this, i'm just trying to help.

Hey that's a really good idea godzilla, I'm doing marketing at the moment - so if you recommend those places. I don't know the 3d modelling scene very well, so I've been concentrating more on sketchup. I had a good talk with some cinema 4d guys last night though - apparently the exporter is totally awesome, so we might focus on that more.

It may prove interesting, marketing wise, to do a video tutorial on Blender + Indigo, given the fact there's quite a few apps out there for which there's no Indigo exporter.

Well, all of those sites are frequented by professionals (Except CG tuts, that's mostly hobbyists, though still potential customers), evermotion and threedy.com both have hundreds of professional architects/conceptualists/interior designers, which are the type of people I think Indigo suits the best. Digital tutors is used by thousands of people as well, just look at this page on their website: http://www.digitaltutors.com/09/customers.php

And, as I said a few months ago, try starting a Yuotube channel to put Indigo tutorials on (Free publicity and a helpful source of information) or a Deviant page to showcase Indigo's best renders somewhere other than the Indigo website.

Oh yes it is!
Thanks go out to fused for his awesome work.

I think a Youtube chan and deviantART page are awesome ideas aswell!

Well - i'm dead keen to put together some Indigo videos. I really need some nice blender, cinema 4d, 3ds max and sketchup scenes though. So please, send your scenes to ben@indigorenderer.com and that'd be an awesome start.
