When I woke up last Sunday morning, I noticed the BlenderNation entry about a LuxRender shaders database.
I don’t use LuxRender but Yafaray. This renderer is the successor of the well-known Yafray, and it’s a full rewrite to achieve great speed and nice functionnalities.
I thought : “It’s a shame a famous renderer like Yafaray doesn’t have a shaders database on its own”. So I started to create one from scratch this morning.
As of now it’s already the 2nd version online : check it out now : http://yafaray.thomasbaron.net
This is a really fresh project, so don’t expect to see it full of great shaders at this stage. Current goal is to enhance the site to achieve something suitable for daily use. Features are, as of writting :
- Free accounts opened right now
- Download a standardized scene to achieve consistent previews
- Upload your shader easily
- Browse the existing categories
- Create your own categories
- Use the built-in search engine

Sorry for being off topic but what WP template do you use? Looks great.

Fusion 2.3 by digitalnature. I don’t remember of changing anything, except choosing the modules of course.
