That could be a good idea. If we used the txview342 program we can generate 
contact sheets for all textures, then select the ones we wish to submit for 
inclusion, and generate contact sheets for those.

You can always e-mail me the files as well, and let me do the dirty work.

BTW your modified shapes.inc and macros would be good to post. Anything that 
improves povray should be included.

I'm trying to convert some c++ gaussian/other rand code to povray as well. 
That is rather difficult thought do to the fact we don't have datatypes and 
proper for/do loops. :-(
