Hi you all,

I would like to have comments on my contribute to the rsoacp series.

I have stolen the rusty texture somewhere ...  ;)

Thanks
Vincenzo

Not "Just" another one, I note with pleasure.

Hmm, Who did the crome sphere that was rusted through...?

I like this image. Very well done. Everything looks old, decaying. Hmm, 
this would have been a contender for IRTC's decay round. I like the worn 
look of the tiles, and the rusty crome is classic :)

I need to start digging through all of PBI, looking for these first-post 
images and make a web page. An homage to the crome sphere over a 
checkered plane image. Some of them are so very well done! There are 
lots of clever takes on the theme.

Looks real good. If only you could make some variation on the tile surface so
that they don't all look exactly the same. That would make it perfect

Thanks, I have played a few with the isosurface object but I managed 
only to have a random variation on the pigment that is substracted from 
the surface.
I have to try to get some more variable parameters for it

It needs some translation or something. Assuming that every tile is 
generated separately, try using something like

pattern(x+(random number * 1000), y, z)

in your iso function.

The sphere reminds me of something I did a couple of years ago when I 
was playing with rusty textures.

Nice rsoacp !!
Where did you find the rusty texture ? Can you post the source of this
texture ?
I would like to use it on my own rsoacp.
Maybe we could start a pov pong match on the rsoacp theme ?

Thanks

I though about that also, and decided that I could not do it.
You can not just take somebody else's images and put them on
another web site. It could be in the form of a digest like
thing on the pov ray site though. On the other hand, they would
have to spend some time on it and their time may be scarce.
Can anyone solve this problem?

Hm. I didn't think about the IP issues, but, yes, you're right. Though-- 
  It's such a tantalizing idea, would make for a neat page... 
Maintenence would be a bit of a problem.

.... I have another idea, however. Those that want their 
"classic-cliche" image featured could always submit it to the website.

Hmmm....
