Well, like many before me (and not the last for sure) I decided to post my
"reflective sphere over checkered plane" scene.
But mine, apart from being small and ugly (the pic you perverts!!) is ...
well ... tileable. :)
I hope someone will eventually use it (even for a minute) as a tiled
wallpaper although its not the best pic to use as wallpaper unless you like
puzzles like: "where-the-hell-is-the-Pov-Ray-icon-on-my-desktop??!??"
Enjoy and if you can take a minute to say something ok?
Best regards.
P.S.: does anybody knows of any image browser who has the ability to show
the pics tiled? It is anoying to have to set a picture as a tiled wallpaper
on my desktop every time I make a new test render :P

I've tiled the thing on my desktop. It's very interesting and my eyes are
*not* enjoying it! :-)

but its NOT a good wallpaper *chuif*
Best regards.
P.S: hope you are better from your eyes Apache. If you need something for
them just check: www.playboy.com ;D
P.S.2: Sorry for the mail Apache. Clicked the wrong button on Outlook :P

I do have a program that does this:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~remcodek/download.html#imbrowza
It's far from bugless but I made it to do just this type of simple
things.
My guess is IrfanView can do this too, by the way.

Not that I have tried this myself, but:
Write an HTML page that contains your pic as (tiled) wallpaper.
After pov is done click on reload in your browser. That should
do the trick.

Easily done - I always remove the "reply" button from the toolbar.

I havn't removed the reply button (cause I need it to reply some mails) but
I have moved the reply group button to the other side of the toolbar. :))
Thanx for the idea :)

Pretty cool, It's useful alright, but Its still not waht I want 100%. I
would like the ability to see the pics tiled as I browse the dir content
(using the arrow keys) and not having to press the tile button for each.

I use IrfanView for a long time now and I havn't found an option there who
allows me to do that :(
Best regards.
P.S.: I really liked your web page. Its very nice to look at and very well
structured keeping its simplicity. And it has lots os usefull stuff too :))

Hmmm! I have thought of something like that, but it has the disadvantage of
having to render the files using the same name or I would have to change the
HTML after each render, which isn't practical :(

Well, you can always reply by right-clicking on the message.... (of course, it
depends on how often you reply by email to messages - me, almost never).
Anyway, this is getting way off-topic (still, given the amount of on-topic in
off-topic, who am I to buck a trend?).

Not ugly and nice idea :-), it could be a cool background for a POV
dedicated website.

Well it's neither a viewer nor freeware, rather an image editor, but Picture
Publisher displays tiled backgrounds since version 7.

i like the checkers. thats a very good variation on the common checker
plane. i was working on macros, loops and randomness in a variation on
checker plane with spheres. i'll go ahead and post it in a few minutes.

you could always write a little perl script, or i imagine even do it in
povray, yes povray is a better idea... have it output an html file based on
the image name of the image being rendered. shouldnt be too difficult at all
as long as you have access to the image name within povrays scene
description language.

I dont know perl :( (but am learning python :) )
The idea of using pov to generate the html is cool, but I don't know how to
get the file name.
It can be hardcoded by hand. Its no big deal to #declare name =
'tilefile.jpg' is it? The problem is: is it practical?

you could hardcode it. but hardcoding sucks. i agree that the impracticality
of it is having to open a web browser as an image viewer. a quick look for a
way to get the filename being rendered yeilded nothing. but it seems like
something that should very easily be available. i'm having no luck searching
through the newsgroups or documentation for it though.

Well, that's what I meant when I said something about sticking thingies
in. If you're still interested you may want to try it again and see if
it does what you want now.
Here's a direct download link:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~remcodek/zip/imbrowza.zip
It may not be watertight, so please tell me if your system blows up in
your face. Especially if it leaves you covered with green goo...
Cheers!

I have tryed it and it really does show the file the way I want, but not
with the ease of use I would like.
I still have to edit the code every time I render a different scene :P
Thank you anyway :)

Thank you very much :)
I am glad you liked it. Sometimes is frustrating not to be able to create
stunning scenes with lots of technical stuff. So its good to know someone
liked our little simple pic :))

:( Too bad. I just have a reaaly old version of PP that came with an old
printer I got.
Thanx.
