is it just me or does anyone else see a face in the middle of the pulsar? looks kinda like an old man, with big lips and heavy brows... |

This "new" version is actually a previous edit that I wasn't able to save due to a file error (I accidentally overwrote my work). I tried to recreate the file I had lost but was unsuccessful. The multiscreens are based off of the old gallery version. Wow, I got confused just trying to explain that. Long story short, I only have a single screen version of this render. The multiscreens will stay as they are. |

"Votes for PJ too!" |

In my oppinion the PJ is the absolute best. Those spirals just gives it a wilder look, especially the one passing just below the planet. It shows how small the planet really is, in comparison to this "cosmic power"! |

i would have to say the pickle jar version is better than the version you currently have posted in the members gallery. it took me a few times to notice the difference, but the pickle jar version has those blue spirals that just give it that better edge. |

At first glance I thought, "Oh, another spacescape", then I put it up as wallpaper, and, holey cow...the detail is incredible. Some of the swirls almost look fractal-based...in any case, it is awesome. |

Sweet, Downloading them now. Only one thing left to do once I get them on there, and that's to figure out how to get your animated wallpapers onto the Evo to use as the "Live Wallpaper" It's a cool feature on the phone, and would be totally awesome if I can get it to work. |

Sat June 5, 2010 at 10:52 pm

The 480 x 800 files are mistakenly labeled. The screen is 480 x 800 but the OS requires a larger file. Until I get the 960 x 800 files available (they'll be Members only) could you try the 960 x 854 Droid files? |

480x800 is not an exact fit, it still needs to be cropped to fit the screen.

"Android App" |
Fri June 4, 2010 at 10:43 pm
|
Have you considered developing an app for the Android network? It is kind of a pain navigating your site from my cell. An app that could be downloaded to a phone would make much easier to get your wonderful artwork onto a cellphone. Another option would be to make a "mobile" site.
Another problem I'm having is that I can't figure out what size I need to use for my HTC Evo. |

Great idea to have notes...I always wondered in the past images how you make things...I like this render, even though I am not familiar with Lightwave, but it seems to have a very good render engine, very smooth.
BTW I just upgraded to Vue Esprit 8 the other day....neat terrain sculpting..... |

I actually chose to center the dual-screen version rather than crop one side or the other from the triscreen. You are welcome to take the triscreen image and crop a version that works with your setup though. |

"Dual screen mistake?" |
Tue June 1, 2010 at 1:20 pm
|
Several of the dual screen files aren't as they should be (assuming 2560x1024, 3200x1200, 3840x1080 and 5120x1440 are how it was actually meant to render). As is, all the dual screen renders w/ an aspect ratio of 6:10 are rendered w/ the pulsar in dead center. |

"Trackpad Again" |
Thu May 27, 2010 at 3:47 am

I run XP in bootcamp on my MacBook, and tap to click with the trackpad is way too sensitive to the point where I just turned it off. If I were you, I'd pick up a mouse with plenty of buttons so you could map them to exposé in OS X if you wished, and didn't have to deal with shoddy trackpad software in Windows.
Oh and great wallpaper, I love space renders. :) |

This is great work and I like it but as a longtime fan I would love to see some new posers. I know you stopped doing them a while back and briefly revisited with Chamelea in 2007 but I would very much like you to do another. I emailed you a few months back with the idea of doing a updated version of frio in sand and another thought would be for you to attempt a futuristic terminator style poser. With your talent I'm sure either would look amazing and possibly even present a new challenge to you. Thanks in advance. |

"Re: MacBook Pro" |
Wed May 26, 2010 at 7:30 pm
|
It's a sweet laptop. . .for running OSX. I've heard that the MacBook can't switch between graphics chips when running Windows so it ends up running a lot hotter. It does get wicked hot while rendering, though I think this would happen no matter what OS I run. There's only one vent that I can find! It sure is a great looking machine though ;)
There's also some issues with power management that don't seem to work properly under windows (for instance it doesn't go to sleep when I close the lid).
I also don't like that I have to actually "click" the trackpad where on Windows laptops I can just tap it.
I need every cycle so I can't be running a VM. I'll just hope that these little issues get fixed with an update and go from there. |
