Questions about c4d and renders
Well...I mean I guess I dont have questions so much as I want to know what they are.
Also if people are posting things in here as resources are those things ok to use for like...images for a class I have or something?

C4D is short for Cinema 4D, which is the program used to make them. They're a little hard to describe.
Renders is the term used to cut around a stock image so you can replace it with your own background. Take the girl in my sig for example, someone has rendered around whatever background was behind her.
The clue is in the name for Resources, anything that may be useful for your work, Renders and C4D's included, most resources are pretty open to use but some may have limitations like not for commercial use or something. Also remember that although renders and stocks are resources the rights to the original image still apply. So hey if you want to make a billboard using a Megan Fox render don't be surprised if she doesn't sue your ass.

Her thumbs would totally get in the way of her filling out the paper work.
Thnaks for the lowdown on the renders. Now to try to figure out the C4D stuff. Anyone else?

Maxon Cinema 4D is a 3D program mainly used for creating 3D models and objects.
But it can also be used to crate more simple things like resources for graphics, such as the ones below▼
____________
C4D Renders/Abstract C4D's, solid shapes with no background/transparent so you may place them freely on your creations without having to cut them out yourself or change the layer blend mode.
Used to cover up, wrap around and blend your subject render/stock, as well as for creating backgrounds.
Examples:
Creations including c4d renders:
_________________________________
C4D Bubbles, fragments and circles looking like bubbles are used as effects to fill space and make your creations look fancier.
The layer "Blend Mode" in Photoshop for these effects need to be set to either "Lighten", "Screen" or "Linear Dodge", in order to blend with other images since the bubbles backgrounds are usually solid black.
Example:
Creations including c4d bubbles:
__________________________
C4D Effects are as the name says, effects. They are usually straight lines from the center and out, and used to build flow and lighting.
Same as with the bubbles, their backgrounds are also usually solid black, so their layer blend mode need to be changed as well.
Example:
Creations including c4d effects:
Click the images of the C4D examples and it will take you to the creators deviations, where you are able to download them.
All tags/sigs are created by me, but they are really old since I don't use C4D's in my creations anylonger. This is because I personally think C4D's are too overused, everyone uses it and you rarely see something new and original.
However using C4D's is a great way to learn how to make sigs/tags, since they are easy to use and work with. So don't let me stop you

If you want to download some more C4D renders and effects you may check our resource packs by Studio 9 and Talented Arts, and even deviantART's resource section.
Hope this helps and let me know if you have any further questions
