Whats going on with your 2d generated stuff? It looks like you've just been loading code from the gallery, clicking render, and posting the variation on b3ta?

it is common to assume that it was started 'from scratch'.
JPG, as I think this sort of assumption is quite common, could I suggest that a lot of misunderstanding could be avoided by pointing out -- when you post -- if that isn't the case?
Adding that information doesn't make the result anything less to appreciate. Omitting it causes rather a shock, on the occasions when it turns out that the assumption was wildly wrong.
(FWIW, I think it equally applies to images traced from photos, or with colours sampled from a photo -- when looking at a work (ooh, get me), it really helps to understand what it's built on).
EDIT: ...This is all so weird. Perhaps there is some other explanation. Perhaps JPG is unaware that these are all pre-published works in the gallery? Perhaps the parameters / code / whatever are listed -- unattributed -- in some other place that JPG found (like a manual or tutorial or something)?
I really thought that http://b3ta.com/board/9401211 was all JPG's invention. Am I stupid for not 'just knowing' that this is (apparently) Lagroue's rendering (gallery 53) of Akiyoshi's 'rollers' illusion? It's not half a bump coming down to earth from that one.
