How To?

May be a dumb question, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to edit my profile (i.e. info, avatar, etc.). Help? :D

2010 pbviz.com 3D calendars!

Glen Loyd — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 18:17:42 GMT

The 2010 pbviz.com calendars are here! These are a little late and a little unusual. The attachments below are for two 6 month "cube" calendars. Trying to fit 12 images and months just didn't quite work out. By stacking them (even months and off months) you at least have a preview of the next month.

Each image is set to print out on 11x17 paper. A heavier weight paper works really well and card stock may have to be scored on the corners before folding.

Enjoy!

Basic rules of conduct in pbviz.com forums

Glen Loyd — Fri, 02 Mar 2007 18:19:37 GMT

As with most communities, there is a need for some basic rules and pbviz is no exception. We will keep our rules simple with the assumption that it's members will act professionally (but still keep our rough artistic edges).

1. Be constructive in any criticism. Bashing and trashing will not be allowed in the public forums. Use the personal message area if you feel the need to pick a text-fight with someone.

2. Be cautious about the content of your posts as some information may be confidential to a project/company. This is a public website and will have competitors lurking around for vital information.

3. Watch the language. We are representing our companies and their integrity. Most bad words are filtered and will be replaced with something less offensive.

4. No indecent content or links to indecent web sites are tolerated. Violators will be permanently banned form pbviz.com.

If you feel that a member is not behaving appropriately, please notify one of the administrators or moderators. We hope that you find pbviz.com to be a useful resource in your daily job in some way or another.
