In answering privately to an IM sent me by a fellow Brycer, I realized my answer expresses better what I feel, so I'm deleting the previous post and copy that one instead. ________________ As I said in my post, I do understand why people got itchy about a black screen being in the Hot20, but I also said that I'm not feeling embarassed for the pic itself. So, thanks again for your words, they are really precious... and you can't imagine how glad I am because ANYONE mistook my picture as a joke or a prank: it was serious, and I'm incredibly happy that everyone understood it. Then, it's obvious that, when you post a political picture, you simply have to take into account that people not only can disagree with your POV, but that they have also the right to. I said I was embarassed about the Hot20 thing because I do think that Hot20 is the "slideshow" of the best Bryce art here, and this (in my opinion) involves not only the concept, but also the technical and artistic skills of the author. And my WMD image had the first, but lacked completely the second. It's just my opinion, of course, and this doesn't detract at all my gratitude for all the people who voted for it. Thanx again to all. This IS the coolest Forum on Renderosity ;-) S.
