Hopefully you can get it working, since I've got a new version almost 
complete. It produces more realistic snowflakes, and is based on an 
iterative function. Stay posted...

Hi Sam,

Wow, this is really cool! It works fine, and the processing of 
snowflakes looks very beautiful. I will try out the bitmaps with povray 
as soon as I got some time.
