Done.

Why use POV to composite images. I know it can be done. POV is a programming
system. The raytracer proved that. POV was not written to be a image
processing system. You should find a program that is intended for this
purpose. If you want to do post production with out paying for it just use
imagemagik. Works wonderfully.
It is available on both windows and Linux and I am sure for the MAC as well.

I'll try, thanks.. I was browsing for hours and couldn't find anything
useful.. If this program can do batch-processing and script various
processes, I'll be delighted.

I just had a look.. Seems like a library of DOS tools?  :-/

Well, it's a set of command-line programs, you don't need a GUI for 
batch-processing ;)

I believe The Gimp has scripting and batch-processing too, and there's a 
windows version (I don't know abut Mac).

Maybe I'll try them but it seems my macros are simpler to use although they
render slower. Have I told you that I've use POV-macros to make html files?
I downloaded a few freeware html-applications to use when notepad fails, but
I end up using POV instead...

There's also the Java Advanced Imaging API (JAI).  You can easily take a
bunch of images and average the pixles together yourself if you had to.

? Doesn't the linux distrib of the Gimp run on a Mac ?

The original X11 version of Gimp runs on Mac OS X. I've never heard of a
version with a native interface, or one for Mac OS <= 9.

Yes and no...Apple has an X11 environment which the Gimp can be compiled 
to run under. There may be some modifications necessary to compile it on 
Mac OS X, and a Linux binary certainly won't run on the Mac. Imagemagik 
also runs under OS X, as well as the NetPBM utilities, which could also 
be used for this purpose.

BAT files in windows works well for me. Linux I am sure is better but I have
too many programs I use in windows. You could use povray to output the BAT
files to be used with imagemagik.
