bit blurred on the bird..
http://www.deviantart.com/view/536362
well thats it for tonight, my eyes are burning and my head is banging.. haven't slept ina a good long time, par normal for me, but when it catches up,,,,
anyway I am at 10320 of 20432 so I will leave the connection open and finish up later today... then there are another set of groups I can look through, been meaning to do this for a while, though only viewing...
Jafo, after getting half way through the 3d walls at deviant I am learning to understand just what you mean by metallic spheres, floating boxes, auto generated 3d like the old fractils, though those tended to be extreamly interesting... many of the bryce works are also, but some seem the be replications of the same thing in a different color or material, and yet they blend into a blur after a bit...
I also noticed the ones here that are posted there and they do have a different quality about them
DangeRuss has some of his work there and that stands out for sure also...
anyway, off to bed with me and everyone have a fantastic morning, days, evening or night !!!

This isn't an eagle, it's an osprey, and it's not 3D but it is done in Photoshop... https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=8&SkinID=14

cool Davidk
you know I am kind of shocked at the number of walls at deviant and the number of people who end up here asking about them. Seems so sublime when I think that last night I acutally had spent hours browsing and still only made it half way through just the 3D section...

yeah thats it
I was heading to Renderosity after checking deviant out next, then Pixologic, and a couple of other places
I think Davidk or G_A nailed it
BegelBilly, the thing about gaining permission, if your giong to use it for personal use on your system as a wall, do check but that shouldn't be anything to worry about, but if your wanting it for a splash on a website or some such, you do need to get the permission, everything is held under the sole ownership authors by copyright.. there should be something explaining fair use and such on the site...
though, it would be interesting to see what some of your peeps here would come up with as your own creations

Ohhhh, mrtree you should go check out deviantart.com in the 3D section there is a fantastic Eagles head... I looks like the one someone used in a wallpaper with the flag, lady liberty, the towers and the Eagles head on different layers set at different transparency.
Anyway, this is fully focused and it looks fantastic, something to blow up and print on a really good colorjet/laser like a Xerox down at Kinos or something and hung on the wall.
It would be worth the money to do it...

@shu has to take a shot at this.
Jafo, in message #10 on this thread, you have spelt 'decipher' as 'decypher'.
@shu hopes that he is right!!!

@shu...
decypher is actually the correct spelling of 'decypher'. 'decipher'is not.

I have an Oxford dictionary ready at hand. But maybe in US English, decypher might be the correct spelling. Like 'grey' turns to 'gray' and 'colour' becomes 'color'.

Heh - so I went and looked - all of my dictionaries show both. It may even be a regional thing in the US - but generally, throughout my life, 'cipher' has been considered 'wrong'.
Though both 'gray' and 'grey' are perfectly acceptable. And to be honest - before you mentioned it, I couldn't have even told you which was the US english spelling, and which one wasn't. We were taught in school that both were equals. Much like 'ax' and 'axe'.

Oops! I got it wrong. 'cifre' was the medieval latin, derived from the Arabic 'sifr'.
kthxbye

Oh - I didn't get anything wrong. Forgot I'd deleted the part about the etymology - since, well, it was totally irellevant to my post!
