Maybe renderosity forums are highlighted is because they are so good! I've been playing at modeling for about 4-5 years and this is by far the best site for the process of making pictures - there are 1000's of gallery sites. and the images within which are by turns - rendered in 6 months on a kick-arse fully-loaded silicon graphics workstation - or reflective balls on a chequered ground. The forums bring the site to life. All power to their elbows
