I too am thrilled when I can use Pov to create the tools it needs to
make it more effectivete than it already is. A well designed gradient
also makes great corregated metal for out buildings and the ocassional
quansit hut or tool shed. Also would work for aluminum siding on a
trailer house but I don't know anyone who would stoop so low asss to actualy
render one. There are just some things that raytracing shouldn't be asked
to do.
