Hi there, I just wanted to add this welcome and explain the tag I put on the article on Seamless3d which you created. The article conforms to the way Wikipedia artices should be structured, but lacks any references which would prove the subject's notability. Has it been the subject of independent reviews? Magazine or newspaper articles? There may also be a small conflict of interest problem, as I assume that you are one of the developers of the software and it may be difficult for you to write objectively about it. Bit if you can find some references, I'll try and help you to insert them into the article, which will help it to be much more credible. Please let me know (just reply here) if you'd like this.

Hi Kim, thanks for your welcoming message and notifying me of the problem.

Has it been the subject of independent reviews? Magazine or newspaper articles?

Seamless3d is not well known by many, it is non commercial software and has only been reviewed to my understanding on a few small websites.

I am not aware of anything I would consider negative written about seamless3d but If written by anyone well informed the articles I am aware of have only been written by friends.

The article I have written is to inform of the existence of this software and does not try to promote it as popular software.

I can understand the concern of there being conflict of interest since I am both the developer of seamless3d and the writer of this article however one can only really reference my site for any of the facts I have stated. Though I did not do an exhaustive search I could not find anywhere what wikipedia's policy is on non commercial open source software which seamless3d is. All of my statements can be independently verified except perhaps some of the early dates I have stated may rely on my email accounts if others have not kept them. The program Seamless3d itself can verify most of what I have stated by it's built in software robot demos and some examples posted on forums such as in this announcement:

http://www.seamless3d.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=18&sid=67f6db8d1ac88ea6f0a83600ec19dc01

regarding Seamless3d's built in script compiler.

I have tried to only inform the facts and have tried to not sound like I am reviewing it since this is something only others can really do. I even point out in the article that "Seamless3d has many underdeveloped features"

However I am happy to delete or modify any sentences you believe to be inappropriate for myself to have written here.

best wishes
