Thank you. :)

My goal is to build a fairly comprehensive "Environmentals" macro set that is
both simple to use and nice looking. Given that they are designed to work
together it should take a LOT of the work out of creating natural scenes, and
hopefully inspire some scenes.

The Rocks macro is coming close to completion, for version 1 at least, and the
Terrain macro is close behind it. Next in the set is the Skies and Fogs.

The Fog is being a little weird, because Media without a container is only
visible when looking at the plane below it, and it vanishes above the horizon.
?! Weeeird. Very counterintuitive.

Any idea why this is, and how to fix it? Is the only choice to bound the media?
I am guessing that this is because it is not reasonable to calculate media for
an infinite space, but I could be wrong.
