This is nice. How long (it looks like it took quite a while)?

Not long at all actually. The photon gathering stage took a while... over
1,000,000 photons I think. I'll re-render and let you know.

Now all it needs is dispersion... :-)

Of course.  He even said that the render time was "not long at all
actually".  That needs to be remedied.  I'm confident that the use of
dispersion will send that render time through the roof where it belongs.

Ian,

Time for Photon 16 min 43 sec
Photons stored 1,192,560
Total time 57 mins 55 secs

Not too bad,

Hehe... I shall make amends and re-render with dispersion (I've not used it
yet).  I apologise for being so remiss ;-)

I just saw that...dispersion won't be enough though, media and a touch 
of blurred reflection need to be added too. And don't forget radiosity 
and focal blur...and maybe a proximity pattern or two. :-)

Make that really low-error radiosity. He doesn't need his RAM for
anything else.

And render at a higher res. XD

I think it needs some optical birefringence(?)... ;)

Yeah, well, I had a P133 until recently.. not exactly a huge upgrade to a
P200 is it? :-)

Ratios are what's imporant. You'd be increasing your speed 66%.
Though, considering we went from 166(?) to 450 and now we might get a 1000,
and each does more per cycle, I suppose a normal upgrade is a bit more than
that! *drool*

> Dogs, cats, and mice.... I want a LION! rooOOAAAR!

I want a Thunderbird. As everyone knows, air creatures are faster than land
creatures. ;)
