Dear Kid,

Excuse me but I don't recall your name on the list of people helped me 
with thte problem.  Don't waste your time by posting this kind of stupid 
and needless thoughts to people who is trying to appreciate for their 
help.  You should not post any of your stupid premature thoughts to this 
newsgroup without recognizing what people do to help each other by 
sharing their expertise.  

You should also know that people giving advice and willing to find time 
to help other's problem are professional.  I guess you are a college kid 
now.  You should educate yourself more on courtesy of people helping 
each other.

Regrets,
Joseph An

Come on Joseph - lighten up! Anyway I think Shawn was trying to be funny - I
admit it's pretty feeble but it almost qualifies as a joke.

While I agree that the money comment was kinda dumb, I'd like to point 
out that the "profesionals" are not the only users of SGI gear, a firend 
of mine (happens to be a colledge student) is writing his own program 
that will extract 3 dimensonal data form a 2- photograph, then display it 
wiht VR goggles.  He's had his share of problems on his 2 Processor RE2 
Onyx (the dang thing has 2GB of RAM...  GRR...)

Age has nothing to do with it. It's what you can do that counts.

This is great, a FTPed website, over a 14.4k modem, no

Ben,

Thanks for the response.  You can scand simple 2D images and extrude 
them into 3D object.  If your friend develops the program that can have 
2D scanned image into 3D object automatically it will save a lot of time 
doing 3D modeling.  Hope he comes out with the final product.  Keep up 
the good work!

Best,
Joseph An

3-D
data out of the 2-D scanned image!!  (I belive it has something to do 
with
knowing the positition of the light in 3 dimensions, as well as the 
distance
of one boject form you to the camera.)

I really don't know too much about the project, other than that Onyx 
makes
on ehell of a DOOM playing machine :)  We were talking awhile about
exporting some of the 3-D files in VRML format which brought it up.

If you're interested, his E-mail address is : Bryon Nordquist

I'm sure he can tell you allot more about the project than I can!!!  

Best Regards
Ben.
