It would be really nice to try a version of POV that supported this as
an output format. Of course, I'd need a Photoshop-compatible plugin,
or perhaps something to plug into Gimp, in order to tweak the image
and convert it to a more common format, for final printing or public
distribution. This is the sort of thing I had always envisioned for
POV-Ray. I just hope this format receives widespread use and respect.
It seems to have a lot of potential.

Later,
Glen
