I think Mike is more impressive. He saw it and recognized it without
knowing there was something wrong with it.

Oh! I was looking at the lake at the bottom. I didn't even catch that.

It's one of the most famous POV-Ray rendered images out there.

...of an ordinary-looking office. It's remarkable in that it's
completely unremarkable. It looks like an ordinary office. (Rather than,
say, a computer-generated image.) There must be a million offices that
look extremely similar to it. To recognise this amoung all similar
possibilities is pretty impressive, IMHO.

As Warp, andrel and Mueen said, it is a famous render and Mike gave a kind
of a hint in his initial post :-)

Well, if it was a render of an office with orange walls or something, I
could understand. But how somebody could recognise a completely ordinary
office as just happening to be like another completely ordinary office
they've seen somewhere else before... that's pretty incredible.
I mean, hell, if I posted an image of cs_office, the only reason anybody
would know it's cs_office is the low polygon count...

I doubt many people read all the text, I certainly never noticed before it
said that (usually just because I click the "show full image" straight
away). And even if they did read it, I'm sure it wouldn't stop most people
who are just looking for a nice image to put on their website.

I think it's quite distinctive actually, I certainly recognised it as soon
as I saw the link in the OP. Wasn't there another thread on here a short
while ago which also showed someone using this image?

Well it is an extraordinarily ordinary office, so it is a good choice when
you are needing one... (if you don't mind the copyright break of course... )

And you know, of all the images to steal, the image of *office furniture*
was one of them? Where do these writers work, Hawaii bungaloos?
