===== From jerry@hoboes.com: Is the bottle of water reflected, or is it just too transparent? It doesn't look like it's being reflected off of anything; it just looks ghostly (took me a few minutes to even see it, I only looked hard enough because of your description). Nice detail on the generic zero-G area! ===== From Sean_Hamilton@amrcorp.com: Cool! ===== From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de: I cannot really see any bottle. What I think you call "bottle" appears as a vaguely bottle-shaped foggy cloud. This is due to the fact that you forgot to make it shiny, reflective and refractive. All things you did to the water. Water in zero-gravity forms almost perfect spheres very fast. I like the setting of the scene, i. e. the "zero-gravity area" ;) Another hint: to avoid crashes use an operating system that does not crash, I recommend NetBSD, but Linux will do fine :) ===== From johnson@pharmacy.arizona.edu: Like the reflection of the bottle, that's a good subtle touch. ===== From Varyk@aol.com: bottle is too ghostly. Couldn't tell flare till I read about it...though= t it was the sun with some rendering artifact in front of it. Glare from= a flare would render the flare-stick invisible. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: I can't find the bottle! Oh, there it is. Needs some IOR, I think. ===== From chipr@niestu.com: Pretty, though difficult to make out what it is from just the image. ===== From r@tk156239.telekabel.at: This looks like if you used an old image and simply added a water-blob...
