Wow, you're right! I was able to import an OBJ version of my minifig
created with LdrDat2Obj. It didn't like the 3DS version I created with
LDView for some reason, however.

I'm reading one of the tutorials on animation right now. I have a couple
of questions though:

1. Is there a way to input coordinates directly instead of always
dragging objects with the mouse?

2. Can I reuse bones and poses from one model in other models that I
create later?

3. Are there any free human models with poses and animations already set
up that I can use as a starting point so I can skip having to create
everything from scratch?
