Y'all sure talk funny!  I mean, shoot, boy -- everybody else
in 3D graphics uses "texture" to mean an image texture map.
Except for us VRML folks who also have movie textures and a
queer duck called a pixel texture.

Which got me to thinking about Aaron Walsh who's working on a
Universal Media Element library for VRML: 
http://www.web3d.org/WorkingGroups/media/ -- which contains or
will contain a whole passel of the other kind of texture.  I
have no idea whether there's any possibility of synchronicity
there, but it might be worth thinking about.

I imagine a number of folks might like to contribute some of
of the heightfield images they've made over the years if
there were a central place to put them.

Just some random thoughts which involve no work at all for me
and lots of work for other people.
