OK now this isn't the most exciting model I've tried to re create but it was
right in front of me and it wasn't too complicated, but it was fun doing
(though it could look rather sad). It took just over an hour to render and
I played around with radiosity a bit, I'm very inexperienced with it, I just
turn it on in Moray, and for that first time I actually changed a few
settings after reading the POV help flies. Anyway because of the way I way
over did this image infact the tooth pick box is in real life a few cm's big
not a few metres as the camera looks and its actually made out of cheap
plastic not posh metal like it looks, he. Anyway comments are welcome, any
ideas on how to improve the textures or create a proper set of tooth-picks
within the box?

Oh... "metal texture"? I thought you had created a superb Styrofoam texture.
You might want to set it aside for that instead, looks almost perfect for that
if it had a slight 'crand' to it maybe. I even thought I was looking at a
Chinese food container with chopsticks in it.
Btw, the typical toothpick I know of is cylindrical with tapered ends. Anyway,
the wood looks greenish to me, don't know if it's a monitor thing again or not.

Perhaps with some kind of bubbly-looking texture overlapping it to make the "beads"
in the styrofoam. No CFCs I hope! :-P

No no, Bob, the wood looks fine to me: that must be your monitor again...
And yes: the box looks like it's been made of soft plastic. Good model,
IMHO.

As a dentist I can say that the box is beautiful, but the toothpicks are a
bit flat. The diameter of a toothpick should be triangular, and they should
be pointed, but with a rounded tip. The surface should be a little bit
rough.
I made a rough sketch, attached.

Perhaps as a Dentist you can explain why we are told not to use a sharp

This might lead to some gamma color correcting then. Oh no! I just had a
terrible thought. It's said that men have a high rate of color blindness. Not
a good thing when this raytracing stuff is your main interest. Been a while
since I've gone to the optometrist, I better ask about that when going for my
next pair of glasses.
Oh wait. Maybe you have the color blindness instead? No one else has disproved
or confirmed anything about the green tinted wood color.
Whew! Oops, I didn't mean it like that. heh-heh-heh

That's because all dentists are sadists. They just want to do it
themselves.. ;-)

Yeah I see you're point, when I look at the tooth picks that actually came
in the box the images are quite similar, but maybe these are just rubbish
tooth-picks, I'll give it a more stereotpyical look, I think, but that means
re-positioning all the tooth-picks (Moray is amazing but POV will always
have its advantages over everything!). Anyway I'm off to have a go at that
new tooth-pick (what an exciting life I live).

No - it _must_ be you since 4% of the males are colour blind, and more than
90% of those are of the red-green type: mixing up red and green (or seeing
no difference between R&G). As you are the only one, in the group of 25
people who have seen this picture, who has complained that the reddish
sticks are greenish, ....
I hope its your monitor :) Does it show good red-green 3D anaglyphs? Did
nobody tell you that your Mars pictures ---

It would have to be an inability to distinguish red and green. If they simply
saw them "backwards" from everybody else there would be no way for others to
know.

Vibrating! I think the tools are all tuned to the natural frequency of
human teeth to cause the most discomfort possible for a non-invasive
cleaning procedure.

Sorry Bob: Stupid of me to again forget to add all kinds of smilies....
Your Mars pictures are very well coloured!
Now serious for a moment. I lookes at the test below (yes, you had me
worrying!) and found excellent scores for all 3 colours. So...

Sort of. If what I saw as red you saw as green, you would still call it red
because when someone points to it and says red you learn to call it red. But
maybe you actually see it as green. There would be no way for others to tell
you were doing this.

I'm able to drive through street intersections which have signal lights without
a problem so it couldn't be that.
The latest toothpick image also seemed to have wood on the greenish side rather
than brown or red. However they both have a orange-brown colored desktop so I
hope that's right.
I looked again and the color of the toothpicks is very similar to
pressure-treated lumber, and I just worked with some today so it's freash in my
mind. The boards are a light green-blue or olive but I'm terrible at describing
colors.

That was pretty neat. I think I passed the test with the exception that I see
green best and blue worst. That might explain it. That column row graphic had
me scared moment though until I saw it said "computer limitations" about how
the green corner was meant to blend together in the columns (white dots
elsewhere).
