I like more eclectic, bizarre topics.
It really bugs me when people throw in a piece that had been sitting on
their hard drive anyway and use a cheesy image description to make it
fit.
I like topics so bizarre one would have to have made it from scratch,
like Microcosms.
how about:
-John Kennedy
-light bulbs
-poison ivy
-dragonflies
-duct tape
Is it getting late in here?

I don't think that topics should be bounded to a specific culture (sorry,
I know this must be a very ugly term for the concept, because I just
translated it literally from finnish and I really don't know what's the
correct english term).
I know who JFK is, but I don't know enough about his life to make an image
about it (I know the way he died, but I think that's a pretty limited theme
for a whole IRTC round).

Pro:
Yep, some topics tend to produce rather unimaginative results (how many
views of the same wineglass were there with the "glass" topic?)
Contra:
When the topic is too bizarre, many people (including myself) are
probably gonna have problems both adhering to the topic and producing
something interesting. Sorry, but I would really hate the topic "J. F.
Kennedy"
I personally still prefer the more general topics, which give me a
greater freedom of choice. If somebody chooses to throw in an old,
off-topic image, that's their problem. It should be discouraged, but
not, I think, by using topics so bizarre you have to decipher them with
the help of a dictionary...

Why? You don't want to see 6 different mpeg animations from the point of
view of a bullet racing through the air to a motorcade? With focal blur
of course. :)

Sorry, that was half written in jest.
I didn't mean eclectic in that it should be out of the experience of
most participants, even if my humorous entries implied that. Perhaps I
should have simply encouraged judging entries more harshly on the
"theme" score.

I'm looking for the URL or artists homepage for a graphic I found on
the net and then "lost" again. The page held a pair of images, POV-ray
types I believe, detailing an ancient open-sided Temple sitting in a
lake. In one there was a rendition of a pinecone.
Can anyone help me out ??
please reply to personal addie...
thanks,
JIm
