===== From sroberts@learn.senecac.on.ca: Nice picture, but most of it dissapears against the black bakgroun. Perhaps a standard "two shades of gray checkerboard" would have worked better? ===== From jay@map.com: Can't actually see the prism all that well, but - cool! ===== From cgallego@nordnet.fr: The dark side of the moon... All my youthness... http://home.nordnet.fr/~cgallego ===== From bill.marrs@pureatria.com: Pink Floyd! ===== From jjanger@mail.cspp.edu: Much too dark. Try Putting the resultant rainbow onto something. ===== From tlyons@gnn.com: way too dark!! ===== From 93semeno@scar.utoronto.ca: Too dark. Hey, I like Pink Floyd too! :) ===== From ucoakc00@mcl.ucsb.edu: Please handle gamma correction before entering. I tend to lose color depth when doing it myself. ===== From usmitc04@mcl.ucsb.edu: try making it visible next time ===== From danclegg@uniserve.com: That bit. Why did he submit it? ===== From rea@st-and.ac.uk: The prism either needs some fake texturing, or a lot of background, since at the moment, most rays are passing straight through, and coming up black. Spectrum effect is nice though. ===== From wyvern@u.washington.edu: A little dark. I didn't see the prism at first. Otherwise, gorgeous image! (Kinda reminds me of a CD cover.) ===== From jmills@stic.net: O.K. I won't even bring up the Pink Floyd thing... ===== From uvasst00@mcl.ucsb.edu: Ok I have some tips for you so you can do better on next months competition okay. Here we go. First spend a little more time putting some thought into the rounds topic, and trying to find some innovative idea to use for your image. Second try to include a story of some kind into the image. Glitz with no substance just isn't very interesting to look at. If your really into abstract expressionism, and surrealism then try to give a little more information in your text file so people can begin to understand what your shooting for. Well, I wish you luck in next months competition. ===== From karl@pemail.net: Too dark to see the prism ===== From quinet@gamers.org: Reminds me of some music album... Nice, but too dark. You should increase the intensity of the spotlights. ===== From lpurple@netcom.com: The colored light beams leaving the prism are very rich and colorful; but the incoming white beam and the prism are almost impossible to see on my monitor, even with heavy gamma correction. You might need to adjust the "assumed gamma" when rendering your image (or maybe I just have a bad monitor :( but the other contest scenes didn't have this problem) ===== From dick@buckosoft.com: I've seen this picture somewhere before.... From web_user@dd42-218.compuserve.com: needs gamma correction From web_user@tonyv.aztec.co.za: Well, I suppose that somebody had to do it.
