Doing an essay on Computer Graphics... was gonna talk about Open GL, but maybe i will just talk about the applications of computer graphics... since it only has to be 5 pages and double spaced. Any info on where i can get like a book or anything on the applications of computer graphics? need quotes and stuff... ahh i hate school... my last semester yay!

Well, you can talk about stuff as in where it is applied...

its applied in most/all engineering fields to make designs
gaming of course
movies
tv shows
presentations
music videos

there are endless possibilities for computer graphics

you could even add in a bit about star trek and how maybe in the future instead of a coffee machine, we will rely on computer generated graphic machines to make coffee for us or whatnot...

If youre doing a topic as vague as computer graphics you may want to cover history of comp graphics, future of comp graphics, current implementation of comp graphics, how comp graphics work, and applications of comp graphics. It all depends on how your teacher grades you, but you may face a situation where your teacher may ask "wern''t you doing your essay on computer graphics, not the applications of computer graphics?" Just at thought I hate it when you loose marks over stuff you cant control (cough* english cough*)
