An interesting study in reflection and refraction.  I like 
the way you did the bricks, much better that using 
simple brick pattern pigment.  I will have to remember 
this for the next time I use bricks.  In considering your 
goal, a have no thoughts for improvement.

I like the floor!  The texture on it is really pretty cool

I love looking at reflection and refraction. I'd rather look at this than
half-hearted attempts at perfect photorealism of humans. 
Theme score is a bit lower because a bit eclectic.

Where can I get some of that bow-tie tile?!  My kitchen would look great in that
stuff!  :)  Great job!

visually superb.  I love the cracks in the bricks.

Good personalized "first encounter" theme.
Brick floors look strange?  I always thought a bowtie floor looked strange. <g>

From MMandl@aol.com:
its too off topic. nice refraction in the glass spheres.

From djconnel@flash.net:
Interesting idea.  I must say I really do like the floor -- it 
is a striking
pattern, nicely textured.

The "tribute" nature of the picture, as it refers to a quite 
early image,
unfortunately hurts the tech score.  Perhaps more of an 
elaboration
on the original would have been more effective rather 
than a reproduction
of the original.

I like the floor.

From ethelm@bigfoot.com:
Nice idea but without the text, it doesn't communicate 
much.

ooooh !  this one brings many memories !
I wasn't tracing at the time (had a Sinclair Spectrum),
but I remember well the original image shown in
magazines, on amiga's screens...

From blaineholmes@hotmail.com:
Nice scene, very simple, I like it.  I love your tile floors!

From wozzeck@club-internet.fr:
Oh yes, I like it! I indeed made my first pics with DBW-Render on Amiga in 89,
and even if the pics were a bit different,
the spirit is here!
