  AE Search gone Wonky?

  Posted by Mike Clasby on August 26, 2007 at 7:14 pm

  I’m thinking the Search Engine for After Effects is down or wonky.

  I searched for “wheat” and “text” (because I know he had text stuff)and blank for Search Term, with Rick Gerard as Author and get nothing. Time Frame: All.

  I was looking for a neat solution to grass blowing in the wind, Rick created with Displacement Maps, but get nothing. Is Rick lost to us?

  Is there a better place to report this stuff?

  Try searching for wheat and text without the author.

  The author field looks at the login name not necessarily the persons name. Yours is “yikesmikes” –

  I tried searching for “Rick Gerard” in the author and got nothing so try using his login handle instead.

  Hope this helps.

  I didn’t understand that the post you are looking for is an older post that has been archived. I understand and will fix the problem. Thanks for calling it to our attention.
