Now is 2 am, you've just finished your project but not rendered yet. Enables the autoshutdown feature, starts the render, turns off your monitor and you can sleep in peace.

Of course it should can be combined with Batch Rendering feature.

You must be familiar with the "Tip of the day" that appears on many softwares. It's very good for beginner.

Think about: If someone has just downloaded Blender and it's the first time he open Blender. He does some mouse clicks on the 3D View area, the cube object moved. He doesn't understand what's the rectangle mean. He tries to find some icons like rendering, make sphere, etc to figure out what Blender can do. He finds no icons, so he closes Blender and uninstalls it.

I think many people will do the same when he first time using Blender. At least I'm the one. :D

It's the good idea if Blender comes with "Tip of the day" feature that will show very simple tutorial at beginning. And it's has been planed so the tips will become more and more advanced.

It should be configureable to turn it on/off/reset. And the tips are categorize in Basic, Intermediate, Modeling, Rendering, Animation, Scripting so you can choose which item to disabled/enabled.

Also it will be cool it you can download new tips to add in to the Tip Library. Maybe someday you can write your own tutorial, save it as Blender Tips format, post it and download by the others.
