        Thank you. But this is for 2D.


    3-d is just manipulating what's shown in x/y points(and not as easy as =
it sounds) .

    I went with cartesian coordinate, a 360x360 canvas(with 90x90 degree vi=
ew port), and a little trig for front/back/left/right/up/down, and amplitud=
e or z distance for my first attempt, with a few others that locked a cente=
r of an object,and held point rotation, and now porting it into the Blender=
 game engine.=20

I've used maya(I think that was the name), and matplotlib, but Blender.org(=
open source) is great for 3d rendering/game engine, etc, and has a nice pyt=
hon API, with great tutorials everywhere.

If you checkout my homepage in my sig, you can see a roughdraft of somethin=
gs I was working on for it.

I'd say go with an earlier version(more tuts/examples), but they put them o=
ut pretty quick, so 2.6 my be best to start with, and it uses python 3.x.
