Alright, I know that I said that number 3 would be titled fire and ice, but
it didn't work out, so I went with the flow, finished number 3 and moved on
the create Fire and Ice, which is the title of one of my favorite "animated
movies" (i.e. not cartoon), and the title of my latest work, showing the
contrast of colors. As Simen pointed out, it looks like fire at 0G. Enjoy.

Oh, btw, the official titles of my works are:

MediaGames 1: The RGB Vortex
MediaGames 2: Gold-Blue Sunshine
MediaGames 3: Ionic Implosion
MediaGames 4: Fire and Ice

If you would like to suggest more appropriate names, please post them in
your replies. Bye.

The first one, most definitely a charged plasma.
The second one, some kind of nexus-ribbon-nebula thing.
Just speculating. Interesting work!

My suggestion is "The MediaGames Include File." These are so impressive, and
these things are so difficult for beginners (speaking for myself, anyway),
that I'm sure a Chris Colefax-style include file would be used and
appreciated by millions worldwide.

Regards,
Dave

Like for what? It just looks pretty, it has no real, serious use. BTW, I'm
glad you appreciate it that much. :)

So far, everything I've ever made (or tried to make, in many cases) with POV
"Just looks pretty," and I wasn't aware that this stuff was supposed to have
any real, serious use! But you must admit, your MediaGames do have real
uses, for example as portals to alternate dimensions and such, of course. :)

Dave

Hm. I think that can be solved by adding absorbsion to the media! I just
thought of that, but why not give it a try? I woldn't think the emitting
media sucked up its own light, because it's not light in the
light_source-manner.

That's what people said about light amplification by stimulated emission
of radiation in the early sixties too.

Today the use of lasers are widespread and diverse.

Are you comparing the abstract doodlings of a young man, with one of the
most powerful, modern tools of medicine and science? I'm flattered. :)

Well, I merely stated that the inventors of lasers didn't see the
immediate use for the device.

So with your doodlings, you may not - yet - see the use of them, but
they sure might come in handy some day. Who knows?

Looks like an outstanding fire/flame media could be derived from the
second one (actually 4 if we follow your numbering). Could you see if you
can make some?

Before I started on the mediagames series, I managed to come up with a very
nice candle flame. I was never able to get the texturing exactly like I
wanted it, so I just commented it out, and began on mediagames 1. With
reference to number 4, what exactly do you want me to do, eliminate the blue
part?
