I noticed something funny about this ring.
I made several renders of it - this is the best sofar but another
version is in the oven.
The ring is supposed to have the word "HATE" on the outside and "LOVE"
on the inside (corny?). At first I thought I had done something wrong
but it's really there. Apparently the word on the inside shines through
bright enough to make the word on the outside disappear.
I guees I'll let that be my message for the coming year/decade/century
whatever you like to celebrate: keep love on the inside and hate on the
outside and in the end love will bleech out (?) the hatred...
Peace and flowers, brothers and sisters! ;)

I would have made it opaque IMHO.
AARGH! It's an optical illusion! Are you viewing it from the top (correct way)
or from the bottom (in which case it's larger in the back...)

I made several versions with different amounts of opacity and different
angles. This wasn't the best in showing the effect I was referring to
but was better then the other ones over all. The fact that it's hard to
distinguish front from back and inside from outside is more or less the
topic here.
