overall it looks pretty good, it's definetly good match with the photo. i tihnkit culd do with a few less plants in the foreground though, they seem to distract form the room a bit much for me.

chilli beer looks pretty interesting. not as cool as scorpion vodka though.

im no expert, but if you bought your router recently, it probably came with some network security software.

the way to check it is by logging in to your router. You do this by going into your web browser and typing in the ip address of your router into the address bar. i tihnk you should be albe to find the ip address of the router in the manual. have a look at all the settings on the router and with a bit of luck there might be some security stuff.

jsut a bit of general info on wifi security: the most secure is MAC address filtering, this onyl allows the computers you specify to use your network. Next is WEP and WAP this are just different systems where you ave to enter a password, i think WEP is more secure than WAP, but im not 100%

And most important, good luck!

i suppose they must have to sacrifce on the quality of their beer to get cheap petrol (gas, gasoline, whatever you want to call it.) cant have everything i suppose.

its not a parody, i swear

more seriously, how does american beer compare to euro/english beer? price wise and quality wise.

heres a quick tutorial that should hopefully get you going with the window openings.

intersect tut.skp

better start saving then!

this is pretty off topic, but would oyu recomend i buy the full version of podium, chipp? im a student, so would only have to pay £40 ($80)...do you think its worth it?

and to try and get back on topic a bit, very nice model, love the level of detail, gives it that extra boost of realism.

indeed, its a lot better than anything i could do. just tihnk how good your models will be if we ever do get organic modelling support!

cor, bit of shakey maths going on in this thead! If 1 imperial gallon=1.2 us gallons, that would mean $9.1/6 and then x5 to get the cost of a US gallon(its not just you smiley.)

wow, that looks like great fun. i cant really think what else to say, its just such a cool building!

EDIT: didnt realise the terrible pun there, sorry.

if you use the other gallon it comes out closer to $9/gallon.

may i ask what it is? looks pretty interesting (and a sweet model to boot)

i thought it was more like $7/gallon in the uk...$2/litre, 3.5 litres/gallon

perhaps somewhere along the line SU divided the cylinder up into a set of individual faces, with all the lines hidden, as happens when you use skin.rb. would only happen if the image was applied as a texture though...

its that very slight banding of the colours in the top image, on the brick wall in the bottom right.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moire_effect much more detailed description.

nice one, those look very good, i like the uncluttered feel to the whole thing, helps to get the idea across.

as everyones said, nice renders, maybe you could play around with te reflectiveness of th glass, as it seems a bit too matte, maybe im just seeing things

well i was convinced.

very good renders, like gai i thought one of them was a pic. Which render did you use?
