Ah yes, the forums...

12. You re-check the forums every *hour* to see what's new.  :)

I don't do any of those.

.. naaah, of course I do. Especially I have to be very disciplined to hold myself back when driving, to not stare out the window for too long. That's why I prefer someone else to drive whenever possible. ;)

12. You buy you'r self a external drive, just to back up your terragen stuff.
13. You consider doing a hostel takeover on the rest of the famelys pc's, just to make a renderpark.
14. You see the whole renderprosess, even if it takes 2 hours.
15. You start another terragen when rendering to make you'r next scene.

I just did a #3 just to find out that my render wasn't even half way done.  I think you are spot-on with #2 thru #5.  But...

1. When you see an actual sunset over a lake with distant mountains, you find yourself critiquing God's render settings. ("I'd have used larger fakestones...")

Doh!...I hope I never lose my set of priorities.  God doesn't have to use fakestones because nature has realstones.  What you see in nature IS the standard that we are trying to achieve.  If you want realism, everthing we do in software is only a fake, a counterfeit, an approximation.  However, if I ever do get to be as good as some of you are, I'll probably be catching myself doing the same thing :D

You can not make a render in TG2 for some strange artistic mental block and instead do posting in the open discussions topic after topic and hoping it will go away  :-[ ;)
