===== From chrisbianchi@earthlink.net: Despite the artifacts, very nice. ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: A very interesting image. ===== From rgow@lanset.com: Hmmm, reflective sphere... sort of checkered plane... good 1st post! Too bad about the settings & high render times, would like to see it without artfacts. ===== From jacoons@ameritech.net: Good overall concept, but something about the lighting and texture doesn't look right. Also, I don't believe that contrast adjustment is allowed, as it is "post-processing". ===== From jgrimbert@free.fr: I like the artefact in fact! ===== From fine@head.cfa.harvard.edu: The radiosity artefacts probably add to the image, if we're referring to the same thing. The outer plastic box could show some detail (scratches and scuffs) and it could stand to have slightly rounded edges and corners. ===== From p.gibellini@teinos.com: Notable for lightning and textures ===== From bertram.henze@t-online.de: Despite the artefacts, it gives a good feel - makes you want to leave your greasy fingerprints on that glossy glass.
