I really like that megapov test scene...I just cant leave it alone...so  
here is my annual modification of it. This actually took 1 month to render  
on a core i5/6gb ddr3/win7 pro 64bit machine...and I am not happy with the  
media atmosphere (I came up with a much better atmospheric media macro  
about 3/4 way through this render which I posted in the tests thread) but  
I am not likely to modify and re-render this until I get a *much* more  
powerful pc. Those glows are brutal.

At least it makes a nice desktop background.

Just add +fn to the povray.ini file. You now default to PNG.
Or switch to 3.7 beta that now uses PNG by default.

And to prevent others from having to deal with the bmp, post the png 
version and delete the post with the bmp.

On public news servers, it's almost always turned off because there's no 
authentication going on. Anyone can delete anyone else's posts.

  Let me guess: You have file extensions hidden. (Another one of those
"brilliant" (read: braindead) ideas by Microsoft.)

Actually, I think MS was just copying Apple on that one.  It would have 
worked out better if they (A) didn't allow "." in the other part of the file 
name and (B) didn't allow two files with the same root but different 
extensions.  Of course, coming from CP/M, neither of these were really an 
option.

I cant really blame MS on this one..hidden files and extensions are  
visible to me..I just fail to pay attention sometimes.
