  Thanks SD. I think you're right. Just looked at all the thumbs, and
wow! they look great to me!

  I'll download them all tonight and have a better look. :)

   (Agh! Can't wait!)  ;)

Yep, some impressive stuff there!  Damn, voting is going to take as long as
entering! :-)

My first time entering and voting. Is it just me or are about half the
entries water wheels? *sigh* Seems like many entries would be better off in
the Architecture round.

Almost every round has one idea that gets done about a dozen times.
This round it's water wheels, last round was bullets frozen in
mid-air, next round will probably be WTC redesigns.

Ok, now that I've had a chance to look at all the entries closely, it's even
tougher than I thought!  So far I've narrowed my top 3 down to about 15.

Congrats to everyone, a lot of hard work represented in this round.

RG - and for the next round, if I can only think of something architechural
that's not too architechnical...

I also found several candidates for the top three. It's tough; voting in the
IRTC is an exercise in comparing apples and oranges.

RG, you're an animal! Seven images in the last five rounds and still going
strong...talk about an appropriate nickname!

Heh heh, I think there's an old country song that says it best... "I've
always been crazy, but its kept me from going insane!"

Actually, due to a back injury I've just had a lot of free time in the last
year.  I'm now back to about 85% functionality again (and probably won't
get much better) so other activities are starting to demand more time
again...

Seriously, for anyone who's down with a physical impairment, I heartily
recommend POV as therapy. It may not help your physical problem, but it
sure helps keep the mind busy, which is an excellent anti-depressant.

The architecture topic hasn't really clicked yet either, so inspiration may
be a little low for this round...  I've got a vague idea, but no idea how
to implement it.  Any isosurface experts out there want to team up on a
joint effort?

RG - yes, there IS a reason for the nickname
