When I first dl'ed "Fur generator" by Margus Ramst I thought it
was the greatest thing since sliced bread. This enthusiasm was
tempered a bit as I saw more slices than I could eat on my hard
drive (i.e. I'm not used to working with 20meg incs).

This is my interpretation via pov via fur macro of
the ancient Lingam/Yoni symbol.

There's tons 'wrong' with this pic but I dig it anyway.
So much so that I sent it to a few friends in LA and NY.

One of my friends in LA put it on a 'sticker'. So if it
ends up on the cover of the next Red Hot Chile Peppers (sp)
CD ("Not bloody likely!") there might be grounds for a law-
suit. If it ends up as the cover of the next Orgasmo single
(A realistic possibility) I will fight to give Margus co-credit.

Impressive amount of hair! Something for the fetish-freak in everyone of
us?

Addendum:

just saw TonyB's Abstrahere-image and immediately thought you could make
yours into a nice series of "Abstrahair" images.

Eyy! Anyone thought of using the hair include files for that purpose?!
Sounds like an interesting idea to pursuit.

You mean somebody actually uses my hair macros?! :)
If there is interest, I can clean up and u/l a somewhat updated version; it can
reduce the number of objects by eliminating hairs that are not visible to the
camera & specified light sources.
Inc file sizes will still be large, but what do you expect when each hair is one
(or more) object?

Don't get me started.

Ummm, ok.

Hey, It was way rude of me to mention file size. Forgive?

Seriously,  I think this is a very powerful macro. Too bad it
gets f_ed up when one tries to scale it.

Yes, I saw. I got.

The culling param look very interesting.
I will try it out tomorrow when I restart
my system.

Thanks,

I'm sorry. My image viewer apparently can't cope with my new true colour
display. It displayed the image much too bright. That's why I darkened it.
The attached version should be okay. It shows more or less Peter Warren's 
object with a different kind of fur.

I have added some noise to the surface. Does is look better now?
Your critics are welcome, because I'm still working on this technique.

oh yes - thats a vast improvement , looks much better now !!!

why is there a seam betwwn the central cylinder and the top sphere - is it
beacuse there seperate objects and not merged into a csg?

it looks a little weird at the edges - like the hairs have blobs on the end
of them

Yes and no. They are two separate objects that fit together. However,
I have added some noise to the container objects. It is this displacement
that isn't smooth between the objects.

Now that you tell me I remark this, too. Strange -- I don't know where this
comes from. I shouldn't happen. I'll have to have a look at this.
