I was going for a tongue in cheeck twist on the topic this round. Here we
are in the locker room of the militant student organization The Natural
Defense Force. Located in the basement of the Natural Scienced building of
an undisclosed California University. The alarm has just gone off,
indicating another tree is in peril! Damn the entire INDUSTRIAL CAPITALIST
MACHINE!
or something along those lines! :)
I struggled with AA on the edges of the signs, even with high settings (+a0
+am2 +R2 +J). I rendered this image twice the size and then reduced it,
hoping to get rid of it....not very affective.
I wanted this image to have a human touch, but I am not really fond of Poser
People. SO Iplanned on casting a shadow on the wall of a bunch of radical
students running out the door with more signs in their hands. I was also
going to hang some tye-dyed shirts in the open locker and leave a pair of
sandals on the floor.
Hey!, I think this is my first Non-Niagara related post!
Hope you enjoy....
Tim

Tim,
It would probably help to up the recursion depth (+R#). It doesn't matter
how low you set the threshold if you run out of recursion depth. I think
you'll get more success by trying a '+R4' that than oversizing the
rendering and then down-sizing.
Best of luck,
Mike K

Good looking image. Lockers are photoreal. I don't think you need
figures or any hint of figures. Better as it is. I think you should enter.

When any channel (r g or b) of a color is brighter than 1, it dominates
every pixel it's a part of. To fix the anti aliasing on the edge of bright
objects (such as the white background of those signs), you have to darken
the objects as much as you can without bringing the colors below 1 (which
would then change the appearance of the object). This isn't always possible,
but in this case it should be.
So, bring the sign background color down in brightness little by little
until you start to notice it getting darker, and then put it back at the
lowest value that didn't make it look darker, and the AA will probably work
out better.
(If you can render in POV-Ray 3.5, which didn't have this quirk, that will
solve the problem too.)

I think it needs a bit of dirt added to the textures but I have seen far
worse entries to the IRTC (I am not just saying that.. I mean a lot worse)
I think you should enter it as well.

"Read a book and you kill a tree"? What about making placards out of
wood and cardboard... ;)

The wooden sticks have been passed down through the generations from the
time that their great-great-grandfather protested and the cardboard is
post-consumer recycled though the original wood pulp came from dead
branches that had fallen on the ground in sustainable forest project.

Yes... long-haired and bearded guys are hard to render!
