MEDAL.JPG -> The olympic medals on a podium, receiving their medals :-).
For the Raytracing contest, December 1994 (Games theme).

This image was created in PovRay 2.2. It took 63 minutes to render
in my 486/66, with +a0.1 +r4 options.

To create this image, the main resource was a text editor (dos' EDIT,
to be precise). The "running man" on the medal came from MS PowerPoint
clip art, and the olympic rings are modeled and rendered (I used
"ambient 1" on the texture to give an uniform light, as it would be 
used as a bump map).
The tape was created on 3D Studio and then imported to PovRay with 
3ds2pov 1.8, by Steve Anger.

More details on the source file. I didn't include the texture maps 
because of the space, but you can use any image (modify the medal.inc 
file). ou can even have a medal with your face :-).

See you,
