I don't know about the IRTC, but this is art. This is self expression. This can
also be time consuming and rerendering an entier 800 by 600 image for a small
section, say 50 by 50, then by all means render the small parts after you fix
them and paste it in.

I look at two things when I see somebody else's work here: 1) The final image
and 2) the final code. If I can render the same code and get the same image (or
close to, given gamma correction diffficulties) then I'm happy with it.

As far as the IRTC goes,you may want to ask in the irtc.general group. They
would know for sure, but I think that if the final image can be rendered from
the final code, I don't think anyone would know unless you told them, as long as
the smaller cut image blends into the rest of it seamlessly.
