MISC INFO:
This is the first picture I've attempted to make in Lightwave 3.5.
(Thanks to Newtek for finally releasing a toasterless version).
This archive contains the following pictures:
JPEG.Desk - A 1280x1024 bitmap of a desk, vaguely similar to mine
except that mine was $15 at a garage sale and is not
nearly as nice :-)
HAM8.Desk - Same picture, but in 800x600 HAM8.
(Sorry for the "backward" filenames; I've gone to all prefix file
extensions instead of postfixes. That way similar image types sort
together in directory listings. Also it is visually tidier since the
prefixes all line up nicely.)
This picture looks best if viewed with the proper contrast, and that
depends on how your monitor is set. If too many areas are too dark to
see detail, try decreasing the contrast and increasing the brightness a
bit.
BTW, the pictures on the desk and wall are ones I took quite a few
years ago in my home town on the shore of the Great Lakes.
Hardware & Software used to create this image:
Amiga 4000/040 (of course)
Lightwave 3.5 (standalone version)
Deluxe Paint 4.5 (misc. brushmaps and)
ImageFX (post processing)
Notes:
First, viewing this image in anything less than 800x600x8-bit is a
waste of time - too much detail is lost at lower resolutions to make
it worthwhile. I've supplied it in two resolutions (800x600 &
1280x1024), both of which look pretty good. Don't even *think*
about 320x400xanything or 640x400x4-bit.
As always, please don't modify the image in ways other than
resolution conversion, claim credit for it, or use it for commercial
purposes without permission of the author. Thanks.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
List of other renderings I've released publicly (all are in fairly high
resolutions, usually 1280x1024 and 896x628, and aren't really viewable in
any reasonable manner at ECS resolutions).
TallShipsPassage - Sailing ship passing between lighthouses and
islands. Fair. My first attempt at using
Imagine for a real picture.
Twisted_City - City full of twisted skyscrapers. Kind of
cool, IMHO.
MightyMo 1-6 - Images of the USS Missouri. Fairly detailed
model. I suppose there are possibilities for
"MightyMo vs. the sailing ship from
TallShipsPassage :-)"
Medieval_Castle 1-2 - Images of a medieval style castle sitting on
two tiny islands just offshore from a much
larger island.
