It is with great sadness that I pass this news over to you. I’ve just read Rob Rodriguez announcing the 36th PhotoWorks Rendering contest, which will also be the final one.  I feel a bit bummed out, I can’t deny it.  I mean, the rendering contest is a really neat idea and I wish it could continue to be, somehow, that someone could take over and host it for Rob, I don’t know… I even considered offering to host it myself, just to keep it alive, but I know I’m being selfish. It’s a bummer, yes, and I’ll miss it, but I do understand Rob’s reasons for not hosting it anymore, and so, although sad,  I also feel tremendously grateful for all the time he devoted to it over the last three years,  and for all  his hard work and dedication  to the SolidWorks community. I only got to participate in the contest a couple of times, and I never won anything, but I had lots of fun, learned a thing or two, and was always amazed by the creativity of the other contestants. To Rob, here goes a huge THANK YOU from a new PhotoWorks user that was inspired by his work and has learned tons from him. Thank you, Rob!
