===== From sshaw@fas.harvard.edu: The "cyborg" is well done, but where is the connection to the topic? A good object, but one that might do better in another round. ===== From sammy@cube.net: Topic? ===== From Martin.Magnusson.7121@student.uu.se: I like the ground very much, and the background nebulae. I think you should have made the fires emit light, as it is now they look more "pasted" in, if you understand what I mean. Also, this is terribly off-topic, I'm afraid. ===== From jerry@hoboes.com: History reasoning? ===== From gregj56590@aol.com: Superb, likeable image. A bit off-topic. Without any description, I'm forced to conclude that this image was prepared for some other concept and just re-submitted here. ===== From jull43@ij.net: Much better than the score but it isn't the topic so I did that to keep it out of the ranking. ===== From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de: A bit more of description would be appreciated, especially to connect this futuristic scene to the topic "history". And the "TOPIC" should in fact be "history", I recommend looking at the template and example .txt files on the web site and also the instructions on how to fill it out. ===== From karl@pemail.net: The shadows are all wrong in this. You have a searchlight + laser from the left robot, and fires behind the main one, + an overhead light. You only seem to have a shadow on the overhead one. There should be 4 or 5 more shadows ===== From jaime@ctav.es: Sorry, Rik. Next time read the rules: you can't change the topic for the round to the one of your choice. You must stick to the theme of each round to produce an image specially for that round. Anyhow, your image is well done and has some nice details, like the explosions. ===== From ethelm@bigfoot.com: Very dramatic image but as we are not aware on any cyborgs in the past history of earth we could not score for being on topic or fitting this competition. ===== From 101741.541@compuserve.com: Please read the IRTC rules, and try to fit the topic ! Once you done that, you're welcome to the competition. ===== From bobfranke@halcyon.com: I like the fire and the cyborg came out pretty well. Without more information I can't really say much more except... With this image I gave an extreme reduction in the score for concept. Next time please read the rules of the competition before submitting your image. Each competition has a topic and you made no attempt to connect this image with history. ===== From peter@table76.demon.co.uk: Unless this was a late entry for the previous round, it needed more of an explanation in the text file about how it fitted the History theme.
