I get an idea: Let's have an animation of the C man (or C++ man) and the D 
man in a western style showdown with a C/C++ tombstone. :-)

The first image is not altered from where I got it; I think. It was taken 
from some site named something like Mars Digital, what a coincidence. I did 
make another version that was more red though.

 However, they are very nice images, I like them.

Thanks.

Kewl. And it should be realtime-rendered in D. I'll be unavialable for 
another month or so, and then i plan to start on a demomaking framework 
written in D, with Blender export, so i think this could be the first 
demo to do. I wonder whether i can get the rest of the photoallergics 
help me, or whether "teh captain si teh self". :/ So far they've liked 
D. And they've liked demoscene. But they seem to be too busy making 
money in their spare time from (ahem) studying.

I find them very stylish as well.

That would be a very cool thing demo. You'd have shots at several angles, 
focussing on the faces of the gunmen, with the sound of the wind etc.

However, they are very nice images, I like them.

Thanks. There are high quality, high resolution versions on the page now.
I'm going to be looking at making a poster for myself. :-)

I thought it looked like that too so I got the idea of an aprils fools joke 
of a fictional D book. But its a long time till next april and the D book 
might actually be published before then. :-)

Wow! A tombstone made out of Mars rock! Now /that/ would be cool.
I want one.

Jill, I think someone is selling Mars real estate so you might be able to 
cut yourself a deal. :-) Perhaps that was Moon real estate. I can't quite 
remember. The "owner" claimed he had a right to at least some part of it.

Someone /is/ selling moon land:
http://www.lunarlandowner.com/

I don't know that anyone else is selling Martian real estate, but send 
me US$100 and I'll send you a deed.

Limited-time offer.
Void where prohibited.
Some resistrictions apply.

Even if I were a complete moron, I still wouldn't see the point of that.

There are all sorts of cons and rip-offs out there. For example there are
several competing con artists claiming to be selling the right to name stars
(see http://www.iau.org/IAU/FAQ/starnames.html), and a lot a gullable idiots
fall for it (and then complain when astronomical catalogues don't use the name
they "bought"). There's at least one bunch of people selling the rest of the
universe, and claim that aliens will back up their ownership. You can even buy
real (should that be virtual?) estate in cyberspace these days. Sheesh!

Yeah right! Anyone want to buy Buckingham Palace or Nelson's Column?

It's amusing. I've always wondered who sold all these things to humanity 
in the first place. We have some nerve to suggest that we can own things 
and places.
