Hello all. I'm putting together an isosurface function list for
personal use. The list so far has most of the object primitives as
functions (including cones). It also has a number of polyhedra (all
cubic so far). My question is, will anybody be interested in using this
resource once it is finished (or close to it)? If so, I can post it
somewhere as a zip file or plain text.
    Also, if the list turns out being something that gains interest,
people can send me functions and I would add them to the list. The list
will eventually be added to my website (once I get another ftp program).

    Have a good Sunday~

Myself and the other members of the TAG would be very interested in such
a collection.

Please do. I am very interested. I'll send you what I have.

Same to you, thanks. =)

You beat me to it, if I get it organized I will send you my list. I was
anticipating asking folk to send me a 160x120 and the file which rendered
it, is that about what you want?

Me too, though not for the same reasons probably.  Just that I would need to
use them like any premade thing I cannot do myself (yet?).

I am interested. It would definitely make a good addition to my 
isosurface tutorial.

Was there a race? :)

No, this will be a text-only document. If you can make descriptions of the
objects near each function, that would be fantastic. I don't know the
mathematical names of these things.

If you know the mathematical names, you may want to make your own list, since
it will be more descriptive than mine. I am still going to make my own list,
however. Thanks~

This may be a good idea, since I probably won't be working on my website for
some time yet.

    Not really, but the reason I just suggested that folk always send the
function and use the word "Isosurface" in their posts to p.b.i. was so that
it would be easier for me to include them in my list. Next thing I read is
that you were making a list... I've always been a day late and a dollar
short... I don't mind though, if you do a good job, that means less work for
me... 8-)
