    Love the way it breaks out of the browser window.

    They use the viewpoint plugin, there's proprietary apps for that I think, maybe...

    one thing I know the plugin does is 'redraw' model when you stop moving it to optimise it.

    I have a animation program that models too. It has a photo realitic thing where u can make the surface the photo, but it #d's models the photo a little so it doesn't look fake. prett cool.
    I could maybe do something like that but i wouuld take a long time.

    another company that makes awesome 3d applets is www.sumea.com . They've been around for a while now, but have some cool examples at http://www.sumea.com/goodies.html which show their 3d engine.

    Definitely check out the "halo" and skull examples (whats more amazing is those exapmles have been up there for several years now, so id like to see what 3d they produce now!). Also, it's nice that there are no extra plugins to download.

    nevil...

    could be any number of apps, most likely the 3d was done by the automotive design team and given to the web team so the web team chose a compatible plugin...anyway.

    some links.

    i just veiwed with explorer.

    perhaps the popup windows is behind a pop up fullscreen flash movie.
    ?

    then coding the popup not to move and blah blah
    I can only postulate the probability of performing at a paramount level of perfection praised by the pulchritudinous paragon whose only practice is to preserve such a paradigm.
