sorry Fran.... corrected..

Sorry here too Fran.
I was just trying to say an apartment as beautifully designed and decorated as you skillfully rendered would probably be priced higher than estimated. I'm a fan of Art Deco and you did a beautiful job of capturing the mood.
I look forward to seeing more of your work.

No need to apologize, Larry. I was just funning with you guys. And I have my own ways of dealing with Chris.

And thanks Hyperballad and Jeff.

Okay, here are my official rules for hijacking my gallery thread:

- All posts must contain my name.
- All OT comments must be preceded by compliments to me. Here are some examples:

"You are fabulous Fran. I wouldn't want to be Ned Beatty though..."

"Great work Fran! I wouldn't recommend the Georgia swamps for a Summer holiday..."

I hope this helps.

For the bathroom scene, which is very small, my 2nd machine was taking ~2.5 to reach SL 12. (Dual Xeon 2.8 ghz 2 MB ram) - about 1/2 the time it was taking my main computer (same specs) to reach the same level. But I have to do other tasks simultaneously with my main one.

25 hours to reach SL 12 sounds really off.

Good work Fran both the texturing, materials and ofcourse the modeling itself look nice, and so do the renderings.

I'm sorry for not commenting on your artworks in this thread until today.

ok, you mean you used two machines of Dual Xeon to render the scene? No wonder it took less then half the time to get the scene render. Cool...

The 13.5 is the total that each machine rendered. If I recall correctly, and doing the math, I had 5 coops merged - 4 of them at ~2.25 hr (machine 2) and ~4.5 hrs (machine 1) for the 5th one. My UPS for machine 2 is not trustworthy, so I was setting the SL to 12 so that I would lose a minumum of render time in case of a brown-out.

So, do I have to lay down the ground rules for mini-jacks too?

[ivox3]

No thank you. ......, but if it includes pics like that ,.......feel free.

Good to know that we can still refer to you as Fabulous Fran when we aren't in the process of highjacking your thread

BTW, very nice work FF

It looks like i should be getting a conroe.

Have you posted any renders of that scene? I'd be interested in the scope and setup, to have such long render times. The Presler 930 should perform well. Is the cpu running hot? I've heard lots of complaints about that and that some people changed a setting in the BIOS and got much better cooling ability. Are all of your renders slow to resolve?

[Frances]

Added a kitchen render.
