on behalf of my brain and it the waves it makes
cool....when can we see it ;^)
( meanwhile that kosovo project is up at:
http://www.pd.org/~thatguy/kosvo/gallery.wrl
136k w/ 90k textures.
99% complete - not MU yet though...
( the architecture follows some of the non-reality based concepts I've been
toying with, ie removing the "floor" to allow a better view of scuplture
and thin floors too so zoom back see it all ( and rotate the whole
world.)))

> I have a have a VRML world that I have been building for our VNet

>can hold hundreds of pictures, a featured artist gallery, and a
>mandelbrot gallery. The pictures are designed with LODs and inlines so

>access to their own protected area for picture uploads. This allows them
>to swap out pictures in their display space whenever they want. We will
>be working in voting capabilities so that the people who visit the world
>can decide what they like the most. The "favorite artist" then get's to
>display their work in the "Featured Artist building". E-commerce is
>being built in as well so that people can order hi-res 20x30 photographic
>prints by clicking on the images and placing an order. We plan on
>putting in a lot of polyhedra sculpures (very cool) too, but I need to

>repeatedly "pulled" from it. VRML IS NOW BEING COMMERCIALLY USED IN
>APPLICATIONS THAT ARE CONTROLLED BY YOUR BRAINWAVES. We've actually

>(must be under the supervision of a licensed psychologist, psychiatrist,
