Hello,
there is a link to "Colors of the elements" in the main menu, where there are
all the atom colors. Also, the plugin have a menu (click right mouse button on
the molecule) where you can change many things interactively.
I first built the site in italian language, then i translate it, but i have not
finished yet (see the welcome on the home page). In high school i studied
French, and i learned some english (not very good) myself.
I plan to remake the site and put the molecules in the way i done for the sugars
(see Carbohydrates in the home page), where any molecule have it own page. For
the static POV-Ray ray-tracing molecules, there are 120 pictures in 12
galleries: i would like to hear comments about them. The site is built in
simple html, without any new sophisticate technology, so one must have care to
download one thing only, the chime plugin. Without the chime plugin, one can
see the POV-Ray ray-tracing pictures (and some minor stuff).
Thank you very much.
A big thanks to the POV-Ray team.
Francesco
