	I find this to be more generally useful. 

mesh {
triangle{<-1,1,0> <1,1,0> <-1,-1,0>}
triangle{<-1,-1,0> <1,1,0> <1,-1,0>}
texture {pigment {image_map{png "image.png"
once map_type 0}} }
finish{ambient .6 roughness .01}  }

	It is finite and scalable to the size of the image and so forth. And if
you make a finer mesh and apply a sine wave you can make it wave like a
flag in the wind.
