Title: Polling the FMS masses (Images)
Post by: rtgwbmsr on 14 March 2003, 04:27: What do you think of this desktop? Cool, bad, needs improvement, etc?

And don't get your panties in a wad, the screenie is only 300 KB (compared to the Bryce 5 source file for the thing which totals a staggering 171 MB!!!).

The actual structure is not that big at all - but the shapes are rounded, and they total almost 150,000. Hell to move stuff around...copying and pasting is 10 times worse. The program takes up 377 MB in RAM when this file is open...and the image is only 1024x768 which means I have to eventually copy it into a larger file :mad:

Post by: rtgwbmsr on 14 March 2003, 05:48: The 1280x1024 version is almost done...gotta fix the color tone.

Umm...slight miscalculation. 1,088,103 poly's. Missed a place :eek:

2673 polys per cube according to my calculations...holy shit! :eek: :confused: :eek: :confused:

Post by: rtgwbmsr on 17 March 2003, 06:54: I made a Cafepress shop with images of mine printed on various items. Go buy stuff, and support free digital imaging!

www.cafeshops.com/ddwallpapers (http://www.cafeshops.com/ddwallpapers)

It's good stuff too. No stretched images. They were all re-rendered to fit the various objects.
