Here is an object I made in povray that I thought all of you might have fun
figuring out. I won't tell you how I made it, until someone gets it right
or people tire of giving theories. Here is a hint: the pigment is a 3d
pigment.

You can E-mail me for the solution and source code at:

um i think i'll hazard a guess. could it be a shape made with the
sphere_sweep thing in the superpatch, then have an oniony type pigment
applied to it?
either that or a whole bunch of spheres joined together using a sine type
function. whatever way its done it looks like you're using a sine / cosine
type function to make that shape.

oh, and theres a couple of difference blocks thrown in there too eh?

is it blatantly obvious i have no idea what im talking about?

oh well, you learn from your mistakes ;-)
its pretty funky anyway, i like it.

	I'd guess it's simply a box with a density_file pigment...
