CS488/688 A4 Marking

• README should really be in the right place by now.
• Pages should be stapled in the right order.
• You need to give us comparison images for things like supersampling (keep this in mind for your projects).
• Unique background should have been rendered on every scene.
• For those of you who implement reflection, keep in mind that 100% reflective surfaces doesn't occur in the real world, things look much better if you make them about 80% reflective or less.  Making things 100% reflective also makes it hard or impossible to see the boundaries of the "mirrors".
• If your eye point is too far, or your fov is too wide, the objects near the edges will appear distorted (stretched).
• For scaling to work properly, you need to normalize the ray every time you transform it.
• The images shouldn't be upside down.
• The background shouldn't obscure the view.
• If images look washed out and shadow areas are gray, it is probably because you are adding the ambient light to your colour instead of ambient*node_material.
