Personally i did not think that these renderings stood up to the high expectations set by earlier models.

There is some quite nice work there. The bee is simply amazing.

@Matthew: this is an issue that is on our todo list for the blender.org redesign.

You could run a poll on Blender.org or BlenderNations instead of on the forums (although make sure you make a post about it in BlenderArtists Forums). Perhaps take the top x% (10 or 5 I would figure) out of the total gallery submissions that exist and then hold a poll with those to narrow them down, and then a final round to determine the best submissions for the round-up.

Also, a side note, it'd be neat to learn a little more about the author and their production process via extra info that could show up around the pop-up with the image (quite similar to 3DTotal).

Excellent to hear that you've cleared out the back up of images! :)

Very nice, love the "old house" picture.

Please let us middle click the links to open the pictures in a new tab also (just fill in the href and include return false; at the end of the onclick handler)

Hey there Bart,

It's Mal here ( one of the two Irish guys who worked at NaN in the good ol' days ). It's great to hear that you have that back-log cleared, some of the Blender artwork is awesome!

I've recently put up a prize for a Blender GE competition for an art gallery builder we recently built, and when I saw this news, I thought I'd put together a quick virtual exhibition of this gallery also.

Here's the link ( PC and Mac, *NIX if you have the CrossOver plugin )
http://www.candointeractive.com/art/gallery/blender_art2/

( full-screen version is at http://www.candointeractive.com/art/gallery/blender_art2/indexFullScreen.htm )

Click on an image, then click and drag to rotate it. Also, hold down your button for a few seconds without moving ( or press SPACE ) to zoom in.

Regards…
Mal

Thanks for the update! I hardly ever check the gallery now as it seems to get updated at very infrequent intervals.

Nice to see Nick Towers has a new entry, he's a personal fave of mine.
