  Mr. Rembrandt gets the credit for the creation of the painting titled
"Night Watch". Point goes to you and a chance to qualifiy for the 25 million

Pretty neat. That rug has lines matching the floor lines and seems
strange. Speaking of strange... no, not the lack of obvious cat-eyes
(c'mon, at least throw a couple of spheres into its head!), but that
shadow on the lower part of the cabinet drawers. Dark there and very
light across the floor. Doesn't appear correct at all.
I don't care much for your taste in wallpaper either. j/k!

C'mon ain't ya never sawed a cat wid it's eyes clos'd bafour ?

Shadows is as shadows does.

Back off on the wall paper man. It was carefully selected from 3 different
samples before is was used here.

And not one word about the inclusion of the "Utah Teapot". Tells me what kind
of critics I'm up against.

 Anyway I'm not changing the scene. It's done the fork has already been stuck
in it. For a person such as myself who openly descriminates against all that
is cute, fuzzy, brainless, and resembles roof rabbits, it is the best I could
muster for my CAT loving, fuzz cooing, brainless wife who wanted something
personal from me related to the bovine er I mean feline species. The model
is an excellent one having come from a fully digitized source as opposed
to human created and it is accurate to a very high level. Unsmoothed the mesh
file size is over a meg and with smoothing tops 3.5 megs.

Well, I do like cats, since they are so.... Cattish :-)
but then, this cat seems to be neat :-)
Well, I won't make any comments of the tea-pot, well, I will, it's to bright :-)

I wasn't about to say anything about the teapot, figured all else was
fair game though :)
And I take it your wife isn't a newsgroup reader and that you type
secretly from within a cubical even at home. LOL
Digitized model of a cat huh, talk about a tough subject for one of
those mechanical digitizers!
Did you actually pay for a mesh of this cat?

I have the monitor located in such a way that it is impossible for to
look over my shoulder. I would have to physicaly vacate my position
and allow her to sit where I operate from before she could read anything
derogatory about her. I really didn't plan the location with this in
mind as it is dictated by the arrangement of the small area in our home
dedicatd to my electronics and computor related interests. Many a time
have I sat here and wished I could CSG a couple of quick room expansions
into the place.

 **** ME ***** Pay for a cat mesh. HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHA HoHoHoHo Hee Hee HAw
arf sputter choke ack...  not even were I filthy rich would I consider
wasting currency in such a manner as that. I would rather spend half
my salary on a 12 triangle halfbreed dog before I would pay for a cat
mesh. It was bad enough that it took more than 2 seconds to download.

  I came by it freely through some very obscure references. I doubt
I would run across the site again even with a dedicated search for it.
Wading through the site it was finally located at took 15 minutes alone
before it's location was ultimately discovered. I recall having to fill
out an anonymous survey on top of that before they finally coughed it up
to me. There were maybe half a dozen models, all of superb quality. I
might have book marked the site but even locating it in my links
collection may require an experienced guide with a team of trained
seraphs to watch over him and make sure he doesn't lose his way.

Except for the models sounds like you might have been at my web pages.
LOL
I'm guessin half-dozen "free" models, surely they weren't having you
fill out a form for the sole purpose of such a dearth collection.

My first impressions were beautiful cabinet, table and shadows, nice
rug, floor, wallpaper.  

Cat needs eyes, and the tea pot sucks!  Actually as Spider said, the tea
pot is too bright.

Cheers
Steve

Interesting how the wording changes after a week on the couch ;-)


Axel

PS: yes, the teapot...
though I worried more about the alignment. That is a bit too 'doggish',
cat lovers are way more fuzzy.

And yes, I hate cats. Actually they drive me crazy, put me on drugs, and
flood my eyes with tears.

And no, my life is not aligned at all to anything.

So does that mean it's indented?
