• I’ve added a new abstract, “Cerulean“, to the gallery this evening. It was a lot of fun using Lightwave after a long stretch of Vue d’Esprit images and refreshing to have an image render in only a few hours (as opposed to few days).

  Speaking of multi-day renders. The multi-screen “Canopy Creek (Winter/Night)” is busy rendering on my other box and I hope to have it up before the weekend.

• I’ve posted my revised (and final) version of “Canopy Creek (Winter/Night)“. Let me tell you, adding falling snow is a lot more complicated than I thought it would be. I’ve also added a few other elements for my more sharp-eyed viewers to find.

  I will get the multi-screen going on my other renderbox and that will close the book on “Canopy Creek”. I’m looking forward to working on something else now. Fortunately I already have a head start on a new abstract and with my main workstation now free it should be a lot easier to work on it.

• I’ve posted the dual and triple screen versions of “Canopy Creek (Winter)” this morning. It took over four days to render on my quad-core system (the falling snow is what slowed it down I think). The “final” night version (single screen) should be up shortly and I will start the multi-screen of that rendering on my alternate box right now.

  Then I will look forward to rendering something without trees. . .

• I’ve added over 220 wallpapers sized for the new “Droid” phone. You can download them individually through the “Mobile Resolution” drop down by each image or you can download them all at once via a Zip file.

  I guess the wallpaper setup for a Droid is a little different than for more other phones (the Droid has 3 home screens, etc). I don’t have a Droid so perhaps you guys could tell me how they look in the thread below?

• Afternoon Update: I’ve added 480 x 800 files to the mobile options to support the HTC Touch Pro 2 and the Nokia N900.

• Second Afternoon Update: I will probably end up posting both the day and night versions of “Canopy Creek (Winter)” in the gallery. I am rendering a new version of the night scene with falling snow and once that is finalized I will get the multi-screen going. The multi-screen of the day version is still a day or two away. The snow adds a lot to the render times.

  I also have a new abstract in the works…

• I’ve posted a night time version of Canopy Creek (Winter) in the Pickle Jar. I do agree that the day time version makes it a little hard to see find your icons so maybe this one will work better in that regard. Which do you prefer?
