Actually for 70 planes something like 75 should work for sure (since the planes are
not reflective), but if your system can handle that without problems... :)

Higher values can lead to unpredictable crashes on Windows systems. Since it seems
that many users reported this as a bug (which truly is a system limitation) the
POV-Team decided to place a roof.

You're very fond of yourself. ;)

It can, and as mentioned in the docs: Max-Trace has only an effect if really required
by
the scene. Perhaps it is on some spots where reflection goes nuts on the woman...

Not that much, but yes, I like it. Parsing and Tracing have increased significantly
after
switching from 256 MB Ram with 800 MHZ Athlon to the new one (about threefold), and
especially images like these are only endurable to make because lowres versions (with
some objects switched off) don't take hours. It's a real improvement, and helps me
going
on with my hobby... ;)

I would be still using my good old P 90, if only it hadn't decided to leave me last
year.
But yeah, Athlon has improved my POV-life quality.

This is a very beautiful image!
I don't personally think it expresses warmth as you write it was your
intention, but I don't think that's a bad thing.
You have great artistic skill - keep up the good work!

Amazing! The piece just seems very serene...I like it! I'm looking forward
to more of your work.
Your site is now bookmarked, btw :-)

I think, the expression changed during the creation process, but I think
the title "Tranquility" still somehow fits...

Thanks again for the first part, regarding the second: I will.

Now that's an improvement the site I had hoped for: being bookmarked by someone.
(I really mean it, that's no kidding there)

I like the heart in take 2 better... I like the deeper color here but i liked
the simple un-rounded shape before... Like Jell-O squares... =]
Did you make this model or did she come from another artist... ??
Are any of the source codes posted from your animation's shown on your web
site... Very nice work here... =]

I liked it better at first, but now it sort of has more "volume", like being of
greater,
"heavier" importance.
> Did you make this model or did she come from another artist... ??

Well, it's a Poser4 Modell, converted for POVRay, 9 MB size, so I won't
put it up for download. But I positioned her, so you might say that I was
the artist... ;)

Not yet. The animations found there are all (as of yet) made with the
Particle-System
I wrote for POVRay. It's not fully functional and finished yet, and the help
needs some
work as well, but it'll be found there (hopefully someday soon).
