I am pretty sure if you are more happy with using blender no one here 
will feel urged to convince you not to use it.  On the other hand it 
might be a good idea to actually understand what the words you are using 
there mean.  Someone who really believes what you are writing surely has 
to wonder why it is possible to create good looking images with POV-Ray 
at all...

Unfortunately it has become a quite common attitude recently to demand a 
new feature as soon as something does not work as expected.  POV-Ray is 
not a program aimed to be as easy to use as possible at all costs.  If 
you have seriously tried to use the existing features to achieve the 
intended effect and can well demonstrate a limitation, someone familiar 
with the POV-Ray internals and the technical aspects of raytracing might 
decide to implement a new feature for this purpose.  Incidently most of 
the patches that have been written in the last years have been created 
this way, i don't remember any written because someone demanded a 
certain headword from the advertisement repertoire of commercial CG 
packages.
