JPGFILE: mltdesk.jpg ZIPFILE: mltdesk.zip RENDERER USED: povray 3.5 TOOLS USED: GNU Emacs, pencil & paper, GIMP to add my name & convert to JPG. RENDER TIME: 15 32 HARDWARE USED: Athlon 2.2G (3200+) IMAGE DESCRIPTION: It shows a desktop cluttered with a multitude of inventions we take for granted: optical glass, pencil & paper, a clock, the calendar, advanced mathematics, batteries, a computer monitor and a cordless telephone. Not my desktop, this isn't cluttered enough! DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I asked many people what the thought the greatest inventions were, and then used my own ideas. Getting the idea for framing with a desktop took me much longer than it should have sitting at my desk.
