By popular demand we will run a Xmas scene competition.
We will give prizes to the top three winners - their choice of a new seat of IRender nXt or renewal of their current seat.
Here are the rules:
- Create a Xmas, Holiday, or Winter scene and render it with nXtRender for AutoCAD or IRender nXt for SketchUp.
- The contest will end on January 3, 2014
- A selection of the best contest entries will be posted on the IRender nXt site and featured on the IRender nXt web page, and used for marketing promotions.
- All images submitted are to be .jpg format, no larger than 1280 x 1024, or 1024 x 1280, resolution.
- Post-processing is not permitted, (except using nXtImage editor included in nXtRender IRender nXt). No more than 3 contest entries per user.
- Submit your entries tohttp://review.wizehive.com/webform/renderplus.
- If you need a new 30-day free trial of nXtRender or IRender nXt to render your scene, send an email to contest@renderplus.com
- Most of the final image needs to be created and rendered using SketchUp geometry and IRender nXt special features, as opposed to placing a small amount of geometry in front of a photograph or other image. HDRi skies or backgrounds are acceptable.
- Submissions which are mostly background images, mostly decals or images placed in the model, or mostly faces with image-like textures will not be considered.
- Entries are assessed principally on the basis of: quality and the incorporation of IRender nXt features.

- You may post your work in progress on the Forum if you like, but official entries need to be submitted to the contest site.
- Entries are limited to three per e-mail address. You may withdraw previous entries if you wish to replace them with new entries.
- Any entry, which in the judges' decision, breaks the rules will be disqualified.
- Your prize may be used as a credit at Render Plus for purchase of any products or upgrades. If you already own IRender nXt, you can save your credit to use for purchase of future upgrades.
