Hi,

Not sure if anyone really looks at this frequently enough for anyone to notice
before the end of voting however...

Basically despite entering the competition this month I can't vote. It
acknowledges that I cannot vote for my own entry because I entered it however
it then says that I cannot vote on the other entries either.

Also congrats to everyone as some great images. I still like my concept but the
execution of other peoples pictures is absolutely unbelievable, some truly
fantastic raytracing.

Malcolm


P.S to whoever asked about the string, it is really very simple. Just a neat bit
of translated and randomly rotated torii with some texturing applied.

    Well, I'm looking. ;)

    And that procedure is correct Malcolm. If you enter the next round, you 
will get rating and commenting privileges. It's designed to keep members 
interested and possibly entering, and, as we all know, feedback on any given 
image is always good too. :)

   So, look forward to entering the next round as it should be a good one: 
"Contrast"*

   Lol, that's about the time when I got my first PC, I think.  ;)

   Edit: Oops, no. I got mine on this date: 1999-12-24

   Have you ever heard of 'trends'?

Oh ok, my mistake. That is cool, I will definitely try and enter the next comp
although notably I seem to keep having great ideas and then being really busy
just before the deadline and thus over shooting (hence why my entry is not as
busy as I would have liked.)

The overlap with a previous IRTC theme should make this interesting, hopefully
see some good imagination with some new ideas. Also it is worth noting that an
old idea can be done in a new way!

    Heh, trust me, I do understand. :) It would be great if you did enter 
the next round.

     Of course! :) I don't see anything wrong with covering old ground - I 
just see it as an 'update' with even more modern technology now available. 
;)

      BUT, I'm really stuck with this topic so far, so it will be 
interesting to see what I eventually come up with. ;)

restarting until later in the year?

... I am a bit stuck too, Steve :-)  This is going to be a difficult process 
of choices and dismissals...
