you can essentially do the same thing with the rotate command, given that
the axis is positioned correctly :-)

Lol, Rick doesn't owe us any explanations... we are paying him money, if
we don't like what he does, or what happens, we stop paying him money,
simple as that :-) What I've said, is that if you don't like what's
happening, do something about it. Casting blame on the CEO of the company
is a very easy thing to do, but let's face it, few people actually work to
make AW a better place (awesome job to those who are!), what I suggest, is
that you go out and start a citizen project or two :-) not something that
is newgroup oriented, or where you have to address Rick, because when you
do that, I'm noticing a certain lack of... shall we say... tact.. but why
not get involved in one of the community organizations? they need all the
help they can get :-) do something to make this place better, hehe. And
once you start doing that, you'll see that you can count the good things
that have happened in here much more than you can count the bad things :-)

Weird part about it, is that some of the stuff I can pull up via the web,
like http://objects.activeworlds.com/aw/textures/rock2.jpg, so I don't
think it's completely down... but something is definately screwy, has
anyone called them yet?

Technically, the world (as per nearly all commercial worlds of that
