LIGHTSMARK is a new benchmark/demo with real-time global illumination and penumbra shadows created by Stepan Hrbek.
Out of respect for Stepan's work I'm hosting lightsmark here so it can be downloaded very fast in the US.

Lightsmark has realtime global illumination, color bleeding, penumbra shadows, captured at 100-400fps. Click for large versions.
One interesting aspect of Lightsmark is that it not simply a graphics card
benchmark, but demonstrates a highly efficient combinatiion of GPU and CPU
optimized code which makes possible the high framerates you see in the
benchmark. Therefore while modest hardware is required for use, a faster
CPU will result in higher scores.

Need help with cool stuff?
No eCards here, but we chose 3D and HD video to create our eCards because we like these technologies. So this area is set aside just for hosting things we find interesting.
