I don't have an aquarium and don't know much about it, but I got two problems. 1 It looks very empty, any solutions? 2 It looks weird. I have tried to change the glass and the water, but nothing seems to happen. Is it suppose to look like this?

Looks pretty good to me, I agree it's a bit empty though, if you go to Toucans site you can find some great free models of fish. I think the addy is in the "Cool & Groovy stuff" at the top, I remember there was a list of free sites as well as textures. Hope this was of some help.

... and in every aquarium, there is... err how can I say that ?... a flow or a column of bubbles... I hope you'll understand :-) Argentium Thri'ile

To get rid of the blueish glass in front, you may change fade out color and light color in the transparencies of the glass. Bubbles and fisjhes would look great. Guitta

Sorry Alekssander, I prepared a long answer but renderosity was down and it was impossible to post, so here is a shortest one . Your picture is already nice ;=) . You have to add some "features" to see them reflected in the glass. To do so, you can : - take a house (all around the scene), with table, chairs, windows,... Place them as you want, even if they can't be seen directly, they will reflect on the glass - add spot lights inside the house in addition to the sun coming through the windows. But use soften light if possible. - above solutions are very time consuming. You can also place an hollow sphere around the scene, map a blured picture on it, use high diffuse and ambient settings for the material, as well as high highlights. Blured picture will be partly reflected by the glass These suggestions are just experimental, you can find some variants. I'm glad to see interior scenes, and hope to see more of your work. ;=) Yves

Jilly: Thanks, searching through the long list :) A T: An airpump with bubbles? That should be possible :) gebe: Hmmm ok, I'm going to try that. :) YL: One off my problems at the moment, is long rendering. The picture above ended up with 4 hours. But I'm trying out anyway. :) Hey, I just manged to make two animated fishes ;) That means, that I have read another 4 pages of the manual... lol
