While we used to be more aggressive about publishing "press releases" about what GMD Studios was up to you, we've become more and more focused just on bringing you insider blurbs to keep track of our activities. Consequently, our press release archive has grown into a repository of those topics that we either did really push to the press ... or older press releases on our earlier activities.
