Competition Theme Ideas

After more thorough investigation, the problem (original statement is here and below) was resolved. Seems to be caused by some stale LuxBlend parameter. I've reset LuxBlend settings, and now everything's working fine.

I have another idea for a competition. Merging lux with reality. Similar to the augmented reality mod but done with just luxrender and gimp/photoshop. Where you would, for instance, render a Suzanne in the sun (using geographical sun with calculated time to match when a picture was taken) and use possibly greenscreen style image editing to place suzanne and shadow on the porch of a house for instance. Yes I know this features post pro and compositing, but it also would feature LuxRender's ability to output the alpha channel. This would also be useful for showing that LuxRender could be used in movies and such.

One of the general themes I really enjoy is the concept of "secret spaces". Does provide for a fairly wide interpretation and the new volumetric abilities would be very useful. Also allows for space/ architectural scenes.

Love that idea!

Ya, I like the secret spaces idea a lot, of course
