WAQI
I've noticed the blender forum has reached a size of about 13x50 + (months since this post x ~10) separate posts, and as much as I love using the search function I thought I'd try to start an index of posts with good advice, organized by problem type. This should be [one of many] good reference point for anyone trying to use blendigo.

NeW! Always remember to switch back out of Edit Mode to Object Mode before rendering or you will not see any changes in Indigo.

Re: WAQI
just went through blender forum back to the last time I updated the list. will look through the other forums later.
Also I notice there are a lot of tutorials that used to be on the main site by smartden concerning things like using ISL in blender...that seem to have disappeared but I think they are important.
