Digital Blasphemy | 3D Wallpaper

  • After tinkering some more with “The Source”, I’ve come to conclusion that I am happy with it (for the time being) and I’m ready to move on. I’ve posted a widescreen version and a few more color variations in the Pickle Jar.
  • I’ve added 2560 x 1024 versions of all the dual-screen images, so those of you with 2 1280 x 1024 screens should be able to use my work now. I’m thinking about removing the split files though. They don’t really get used that much. If anyone has any strong objections please drop me a line.

  • I’ve posted another revision to “The Source“. I’m getting closer to being happy with this one.

  • I was still working on “The Source” last week, but had to set it aside over the weekend due to some houseguests from out of town (everyone wants to come and meet the baby). I started working again yesterday and have another revision up for your review.

    I thought the original crystal was too flat and the whole image looked too monochromatic. I’m still working on this one and will most likely have another update before I’m through (it’s rendering right now). Sorry they take so long, but the image takes around 10 hours to render.

  • MIT’s student newspaper, “The Tech”, reviewed my website last week. The review is online now if you are interested in checking it out.

  • The great majority of the comments I receieved regarding “The Source” have been asking if I could change the color from green to blue. That’s fine with me, as I was on the fence myself about which color to use. I’ve re-rendered the image in blue it’s up on the new images page. The green version is still available in the Pickle Jar. Which do you prefer?

  • This past couple of days have been pretty crazy around here. We live in northern San Diego county and, while there haven’t been directly threatened yet, the fires are close enough that we are packed and ready to go if the need arises. We live in an extremely dangerous area with only one way out, so yesterday and today I’ve had one eye on the TV news and one out the window looking for smoke.

    We’re ok (for now) but a lot of people weren’t so lucky. If you would like to help out with relief efforts, the San Diego Red Cross is accepting donations at SDARC.org. Thanks!

  • I’ve added a new wallpaper, “The Source“, to the gallery this evening. I’d been working on it for a few days already when the firestorm started and had hoped to have it ready last night. I still have some tinkering that I might do with it, but I think it’s ready to share. Feel free to send your comments.
