Apology accepted :) I'm sorry to you as well, for practically accusing 
you of making me feel bad. It just seems like everybody has been a 
little too critical of other people around here these days. It gets to a 
point where it's like everybody is trying to make me feel bad... but it 
must be my mind set.

I can understand how it feels to not be a native speaker. Even though I 
grew up in America, I was told constantly as a child that, "kids are to 
be seen and not heard." This screwed up my ability to communicate well 
and I've been overcompensating for it all my life. Sometimes I truly 
feel alien...

Well, I should have used a couple more smileys I think  :-) I got carried 
away (which happens once in a while...)

You know Sam, there seem to be periods when people seem to be more nervous 
and tend to come over harsher than they maybe want to in the first place. It 
has been said here before, but the absence of body language makes things 
more tricky, so what evolves into an argument would not have done so in the 
physical presence of the speakers. And where you are concerned, don't feel 
bad at all! You are doing absolutely great things and are an inspiration to 
many of us.

Yes, that is really sad. I fully understand, although my personal experience 
was not as strong as yours apparently and a bit different (I grew up in the 
shadow of an older brother). Overcompensating is not always a bad thing I 
believe, Sometimes it gives the opportunity to say/shout: This is me! Here 
am I! Can be very healthy... (frustrating when nobody listens)

I've been getting that same feeling Sam. Maybe I just *need* some meds ;)

And I agree 100% Thomas, MegaPov motion blur is wonderful and I'd love to see it
in 3.7 (and I didn't realize Clipka was so anti-motion-blur when I mentioned
this to him over in the tc-rtc forums earlier this week).

I think the MegaPov glow (or something similar) would also be great for
volumetric lighting, etc., without enduring long media render times.

Did I say I was /anti/-motion-blur?

I just said I could go without - as proven with my TC-RTC shot - and 
that therefore I wouldn't be the one to pick up the challenge of 
implementing it.

Heck, I can't implement /everything/ :-P

Oops, my misinterpretation. Well, I'm having a look at it myself anyway...

> Heck, I can't implement /everything/ :-P

Haha, I agree; I'm sure you have other things to do in your life besides writing
code :)

Sometimes I wonder if Christoph has another life besides writing code.... 
:-)
But I agree with him. He is already doing a great job on 3.7

Hm... given that in my daytime job I'm a software developer, too - well, 
not much I guess :-P

No, seriously, I also occasionally do some active racing... you know, 
that stuff where it's all about speed - what's it called again? Rate... 
Reight... Raytracing - yeah, that was the name :-D

I guess I'm actually a bit of a workaholic, with puzzles being my 
poison, and software development tends to give me ample of that.

Thanks.

  Either you passionately love motion blur, or you hate it. There's no
middle ground. ;)
