Obviously, this thread has taken off...and why not, it's a lot of fun to find out a little more about the folks who share your interests...so, in the spirit of things, why not a little challenge to go with it? Here's the idea: Once you've posted the origin of your name, you pick someone who has posted before you, and create a neat image representing them! Here's the rules: 1. Only one choice per person. 2. Once a person has been targete...er, selected, they're off the available list. 3. You may IM your subject (within reason) to ask any questions you may need to get further background on the person. 4. You can use whatever software you're comfortable with, postwork is certainly allowed. 5. All images must be created in good spirits...no slanderous or insulting depictions allowed. 6. All images have to meet the TOS for Renderosity. 7. Images are posted in the most appropriate Gallery, with the title format being "Forum Challenge: *subject name*" (i.e. "Forum Challenge: ChromeTiger") If any of the vendors out there like the idea, and would like to provide nifty prizes, we could even get a panel of judges and make it a little contest...whaddya think, sound like fun? I'll even take the first step, and choose my victi...er, subject. And I choose.............Stormrage! I'll commence development of my image based on response to the idea. Great thread, Ron!
