My longest was 24 hours, until recently... The Renderosity magazine said they wanted to use one of my pics, but needed it bigger....3,000 pixels big. And, while I wouldn't have to do any post-work to it, it was going to take a while to re-render the scene that big. The scene was a thick piece of glass with 11 radial lights behind it, no volume, and just normal render settings...61 hours. Glass can be a pain. Unfortunately, they notified me only like a day before they absolutely needed the pic, lol. Needless to say, I didn't make their deadline (no thanks to Bryce's little ETA timer, it lied to me the whole time). But, they were nice enough to promise to use the pic for the next issue. 61 hours. Nearly killed off what stores of patience I had to last the rest of my life, lol. AgentSmith
