yeah... really for 3 or 4 days.... I tend to make things that are like 24x36 inches and then I just shrink them down to post here... problem is that it takes a while... especially when I use voulmetric lights and stuff like that. I can't say whether its worth it or not... the effects on the shrunken pictures are subtle at best, but I tend to notice.... plus, if I ever try to sell something as a print later, it needs to be high res. Anyway... I started the render Friday night... its now tue. afternoon and it hasn't gotten to antialiasing yet.... another big problem is that I keep pushing Bryce into the background ot do other stuff.... sigh... maybe I should buy anohter 256M of memory.
