Oh, but it took soooo long to render as is. I think it would take about 35 hours to render at the size you want. But if you really want it, I would do it for you.

Wow!! I didn't realize the render time for this program. I know you would do it for me but that's way too much time. Thanks so much for the thought though.

It doesn't usually take that long, but this image has a few things that make it take longer - reflection, transparency, refraction, photons, area lights - it all adds up to a long render time.

I understand where your coming from. Xenodream is something like that but not as extensive.

Never heard of TopMod before. Another thing learned!
How long did it take to create that pattern?

It doesn't take too long if you know what you are doing. However, it took a little while to get the hang of TopMod. They have some tutorials, so I was going off those. If I don't actually have to read the user manual, I usually won't.

Very cool software!!
And the guy has his head on straight. I found this comment on the Topmod site:
"Just a quick note. I am running Google Analytics on the site, and it looks like 24% of the visitors to the TopMod site are using internet explorer. The site doesnβt even work in Internet Explorer, and I donβt really have the time or desire to make it work, so feel free to see the site the way it was meant to be seen by downloading Firefox!
"Maybe someday Iβll style it for ie7 but until then, quit using it. If youβre on a lab computer or you donβt have permission to install apps, try out Firefox Portable. Itβs a lifesaver at a university computer lab. It even lets you install extensions. Enjoyβ¦"
When that attitude becomes more common, mountains of garbage can be removed from websites all over the world...
