I think rben was referring to the "create as impressive images as we had
imagined..." part more than "not give artists enough time".  I can see that
the purpose of this competition is to create something really impressive
with Povray, but like all other competitions, the outcome should be based
on the relative quality of the entries. Please don't take me wrong but I
think it is hard to keep a balance between the two.
