I created a POV template and posted in p.b.s-f

"For anyone who wants to participate in the CGSphere project mentioned in
p.g "CGSphere!" I have created a POV template attached.
This contains the plane in mesh2 format as well as the sphere in both mesh2
and POV sphere format for reference.  The correct viewpoint/angle has been
chosen.  The texture for the plane has also been converted to a POV
procedural rather than an image map."
