Language support removed

After many years i have dropped german language support. The page is only available in english from now on.

I had massive trouble with the wordpress addon to keep my page multi langual. It is not longer under development. It has thrown more and more PHP errors. There was no substitute, and no way to upgrade. So i removed the plugin, and cleaned the data base. Hopefully there are not this much fragments left. But so far everything looks well. And this action should keep the page online for a bit longer. Even when i don’t do any graphics anymore.

Bforartists 3 Version 3.1.3

Hello Friends,

A showstopper bug made it necessary to release a new version. Bforartists 3 Version 3.1.3 fixes three small bugs and this showstopper bug. At some PC’s Cuda cards was not detected, and so it was not possible to render at the GPU.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
