Description
that l-system thingum is pretty cool... quite fun to mess around with.thanks to mr debevec for his hdr background, photoshop only used for the text + box thing (design ideas from robin stark). all other postprocessing (bit of hdr bloom and negative lighting with funky distributions etc) is internal and done with lots of precision... perhaps not enough sampling, but i like the slightly grainy look ^_^
my current renderer isn't the only thing undergoing big changes though, so is lexi... *uploads next image*

yup, they lack a certain "geometric perfection" though. l-systems in general are pretty cool though!
thanks for the favs mate

I need to improve my C++ skills xD

l-systems are pretty easy to code, and definitely lots of fun

I first need to improve my general skills^^
I can't find a way, to get classes working^^
I dunno, what it is, exactly, but I simply don't get, how to make them...
I found out *about*, what arrays are (not, where I should use them, though)
and what pointers are (there, I found out, WHERE I should use them, but not HOW^^)
and I didn't write a graphical output prog, yet, besides a prog, that I called "Zeichenwand" ("Character wall")
It builds a wall of a user-defined character, with a user defined length and height

hmmm... you take your time to answer, don't you? (Sept '07 vs. 4 days ago; March '11)
I think, things changed a bit since then despite me not looking a lot more into all that, I'm still quite a bit more familiar with all the concepts.

hell no, only the logo thingy was. my photoshop skills are extremely basic, pretty much limited to that kind of thing.
[long explanation: the render itself was made with a (somewhat) realtime ray tracer i wrote, with some mad pixel filtering instead of normal antialiasing ones. it's that, together with floating point rendering and the hdr background that causes the interesting colouring - no photoshop filters or so.]

oh forgot to say that the (3d) shape itself is made with an app for my 2nd year university project. the vis was supposed to be done with opengl and not a ray tracer... long story
you can check out the "project handin" edition, without the crazy filters etc, here: [link]

I like it.. unique shot... I'm just wondering which parts are photoshop, which parts are rendered?

only the lettering/title/whatever is done in photoshop (the background hdr image is from paul debevec, although pretty much any amorphous mishmash of colours on a sphere would have done
