TITLE: The Print Room NAME: John Gardiner COUNTRY: UK EMAIL: john@greenbaize.demon.co.uk TOPIC: Great Inventions COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. JPGFILE: jwgpress.jpg RENDERER USED: POV-Ray 3.5 TOOLS USED: Thumbs Plus to convert image to jpg RENDER TIME: 1hr 9m 14s HARDWARE USED: 2.66 GHz Pentium 256 MB Ram IMAGE DESCRIPTION: A printing press. I think this invention must have created real opportunity for spreading knowledge. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: All straight out of the POV-Ray tutorial: Most of the pieces of wood are isosurfaces using f_rounded_box. I put a little noise in which seemed to help a lot with realism. The wood screw uses f_helix1.
