  • (Put it in a folder named to identify it for you.)
  • The file will be a zip file of a few megabytes at most.
  • If the file name does not end with .zip, rename the file so it ends that way.

  • Store it on your computer for later use.
  • Give it away for others to use.

  • Create a small business of building scenes and selling them.
  • Provide it as deliverable on grants and contracts.
