From jon@vulpecula.us:
Nice picture. Too bad it it broke the biggest rule of the contest: IMAGES MUST BE RAYTRACED. Photoshop is NOT a raytracer. Heck, it isn't even a 3D renderer at all. Sorry, no points.

From helene.dumur@free.fr:
It's nice, but it's not a ray tracing picture

=====
From rgow@lanset.com:
This is a 3D competition. Photoshop is not a 3D renderer. Try reading the rules next time.

=====
From jonathan@scudder.no:
Please read the competition rules before submitting. Nice image, wrong competition :-)

=====
From hildurka@simnet.is:
This is not a raytraced image. It´s composed in Photoshop. This doesn´t belong in this competition. Read the rules. Nice image though.

From somers@w-link.net:

photoshop is NOT a renderer.
beautiful image, but not qualified to compete.

From pbrasolin@yahoo.it:
This is a good image, but as far as I know Photoshop isn't a raytracer and this is a raytracing competition. PB

From exet@club-internet.fr:
Photoshop is also a raytracer ????

=====
From ralf@treuherz.de:
Photoshop 7 ?? This is not a raytraced image, sorry.

From info@michaelscholz.de:
Nothing 3D here? So it's off topic, or not?

From timothyea@comcast.net:
this is not a raytraced image... perty though

From the_dark_allies@hotmail.com:

Is this even 3D generated?  I’m not sure if I am not reading your stats right, or if you just hadn’t read the rules yet.  If you have read the rules before you entered and everything is legit, then contact me I’ll change my vote stats.

From aplenosol@jazzfree.com:
didn't you read the rules?
=====
From p_chan@shaw.ca:
This image is not a valid submission as Photoshop is not 
a 3D rendering or raytracing program.

=====
From emediez@emediez.com:
I am sorry for the image, because it is a good image (a good 2D image!) It is not raytraced, I mean, it is not the output of a 3D view of a virtual world. :-(

From glenn@mccarters.net:
Interesting image, but you did not follow the rules of the competition.


=====
From file:
Sorry, but this is a 3D rendering competition, not a Photoshop competition, and your entry is disqualified under rule 3c. However, your image does look very nice.


=====
From file:
This is a nice picture, except it was done entirely in Photoshop, which means you entered it into the wrong competition. I'm sure others will point out why this is so.
