Damn again! My image isn't as good (in comparison to
others) as I expected. Byebye first place...

Possible solutions:
-terminate other contestants until I remain best in a next round
-try to bribe the voters
-get more experience

I think point 3 'll do. ;-)

Hey, don't be so quick to rule out #2.  :-)

Absolutely... Bribery can get you everywhere - just look at any democratic
election!

Cheers,
Ian.

I agree.  As I was attempting to vote, your image was one I actually wanted
to comment on.  I love the look of the clouds and was interested as to how
you did them.  I've played with stacked planes in the past but never got
anything that good looking.

Yeah, the clouds... Took some long hours of
tweaking. I guess you've looked at the description
txt-file, or at least I hope so, I've put a lot of
effort for the POVers to get something
useful from there.

Also, if you like, take a peek at my homepage.
Somewhere in the gallery, I've posted the
"Worldbowl" and on its description page
you'll find the ZIP-File I also sent to the
IRTC.

And thanks for your comment. I never get that
much appreciation from guys I can actually see
and touch here, so... Thanks a lot!
