Yay!! Let's get a pic from kodiac's 
site and shove a stupid magnifying glass in front!!

From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de:
Recreating the magnifying effect of lenses is inherent to raytracing, every
raytracer does that, provided the glass has a refection index other than 1.0.

From lpurple@netcom.com:
I'll try to be gentle in breaking this to you: this amazing "magnifying glass"
effect is a standard feature in most ray-tracers. It's not at all innovative
or impressive, especially when there's nothing else in the scene but a scanned
photo. People might think you were just plain lazy. Sure, it's a -nice- photo,
but you'll have to produce much more than this before you can win the contest.
