I see so many tutorials containing the word 'Render' But really, what is it? :o:

You'll see a lot of words on here and other graphics forums that don't make any sense. They're like sig-makers' slang.

"Render" just refers to any image that was pasted into the sig/whatever. For example, you could call my scarecrow painting in my sig a "render," though a render is usually something that wasn't created by the sig-maker.

Another that's equally mystifying is C4D - a 3d image of some sort, usually comprised of stylized geometric shapes. I'm pretty sure the term is derivative of Cinema 4D, which is only one of the many 3D applications out there.

Thank you :).
Is a C4D like something you put on your artwork too, like a Render, but a 3d shape-ish thing?

I have lots of questions. :w:

Pretty much. People use them as snazzy glowing effects and such.
