Okay guys, for this challenge make a really nice sky. You don't neccessarily
have to put a landscape with it, but go ahead and do it if you want.

I'm sure we'll get plenty of good looking results. As usual, post your image
in a reply to this thread.

I came up with these procedurals using mostly POV so I could get at the 
guts of themath I wanted to use, then transferred them over to another 
renderer which does colors better (IMO).

No actually, Hash AM.  POV has surpassed Polyray in what you can do with 
textures (though it took a few years).  Also, I'm now dissatisfied with 
Polyray's colors too.

POV is like my "free hand" procedural texture "sketch pad," where I can 
more fully grasp what to manipulate in order to get the effect I want 
quicker, then into AM I go (which has a POS interface for texture 
design).  I find POV limitless for textures, but maybe that's because I 
lack the imagination and/or math skills to even comprehend a tool with 
more options.

I took it into Hash AM and simplified it a bit in order to be able to 
animate it- although here POV kicks serious butt over AM- you can't get 
at *all* of the math in AM (without headache) so animating a procedural 
is not as powerful as it otherwise could be.

In fact if I could get better separation and sometimes saturation in my 
POV colors I would have used them for the animated sky I need in this 
case and just matted it in, but I just can't get it to fly.

I knew that. I just wanted to hear you say it.
