Err... no phallic imagery here :)...

The water spray is nicely done!  However, the rest is a bit flat...
I am not sure what to make of the vortex, for example, and the water
doesn't seem to go anywhere.... conservation of mass is being violated,
unless it has just started turning, but there are no other clues that
this is the case.

P.S. Clockwise, from the top.

Paradox spray from a screw that isn't moving, while the base whirls into
a blur.

From sonya_roberts@geocities.com:
Counter-clockwise of course (assuming a top-down orientation), so the water flows "up" the curve.  Nice story, good sense of humour, but more work on the actual scene would have given you higher marks.  It's the picture that needs to be telling the story, though with your imagination I imagine you'll go far (But then, some say I have a vivid imagination...hehehe).

Counterclockwise.

Clever idea.

The water spray is *extremely* good.  The screw and bottle are good, too, but
not as.  The background really must go.  I think next time you should trade
time writing the text file for time making the background look better.  Not a
bad image overall, by half.  Good concept, too.

The screw is turning neither clockwise nor counterclockwise,
it is pushing up from below, of course.

Dazzling!

From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de:
Using an archimedes screw as depicted would not work. Think about it, the water has a free way down the spiral and cannot be lifted, unless the screw was turned
_really_ fast.
Archimedes screws can be used (and are) to lift water, if they are tilted only
some degress (maybe 30 or 40) and fitted in a half pipe. So the windings of the
screw from barriers to the water.

For me the best image. a good subject, very graphic, nice colors... =
superb.

From lpurple@netcom.com:
OK, Archimedese's Screw is a great engineering achievement;
but the dizzy concentric background isn't very good. If you're going
to use the "Thing In A Museum" plot, at least model the museum better.

*No*wacki?  Not so sure ;).  Unobvious, but on topic.  Screw and detail at top of glass column are good.  Not thrilled with the color scheme.  Was the stamp borrower from Porlock?
