===== From manorton@tcnet.net: If it only took 20 minutes to render I would have opted to do a 800 x 600 image. Also it apears that you did not have antialaising on. The lights show a real bad zig-zag pattern. ===== From jerry@hoboes.com: Could be a really nice image--desperately needs anti-aliasing! The spotlights are a bit sharp as well. ===== From Sean_Hamilton@amrcorp.com: erg, antialiasing needed. More pixels needed. ===== From jasondinger@hotmail.com: i don't know how to say this without sounding the wrong way, but for a picture that was made with so many "extra" programs this is lacking in many ways. first off, it appears as if you didn't use any antialiasing, thus the ugly, choppy appearance. secondly, there are a lot of simple errors (like the fact that the "beams of light" don't follow the same logical path as the light fixtures. also, the light fixtures remind me more of a hollywood screening than they do an alien base. the description is supposed to be a helpful area wherein we share how we created the image so that others might learn from it. your description comes off as egotistical. sorry, but i've got to be honest. ===== From amason@cs.uct.ac.za: decent composition, I like the crossing light beams. try using anti-aliasing. not too much to do with theme. ===== From pmccombs@hotmail.com: Neat. Nice color, nice composition. A little jaggy, and a bit small. ===== From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de: I find this a bit confusing and the light beams of the searchlights are not quite convincing. ===== From pdolan@jps.net: I don't understand what it's supposed to be other than a study in water properties - I would suggest having a readily identifiable subject (or a vague one which is stated in the text file). ===== From johnson@pharmacy.arizona.edu: Too small, for no good reason that I could see, and it shows all the typical hallmarks of a stock sort of Bryce image...gorgeous and detailed sky and water planes, poor modeling and texturing. From experience, Bryce is a _LOT_ harder to master than it seems. ===== From jaime@ctav.es: Nice. Good loking and well composed. But the lack of antialiasing and the small size diffcult to apreciate any detail. Noticing the very short time of rendering and your hardware, I think you can do a better render of this same scene, dedicating at least in 2/3 hours to it. ===== From Varyk@aol.com: 1. Make your image larger (max 800x600) for greater impact, 2. use anti-a= liassing to get rid of the jaggies, 3. flesh out your docs so people can = judge how you made your image. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Funny, the light beams don't seem to align with the lights... ===== From r@flametree.hunterlink.net.au: this has a lot to do with water... ===== From r@203.102.40.35: like to see a better quality rendering Notable for lighting
