Create a sphere.  Create a box.  Position the box so that it covers half of
the sphere.  Create a CSG object.  Add the sphere and box.  Set the
operation to "intersection".  Click evaluate if you like.  Voila.  Half a
sphere.  Don't forget to give this new CSG object a material - and only do
stuff to the CSG object, not the individual sphere/box.

As for how to save your images, here's fun:

Make your scene in Moray.  Render it (F9).  Now, go to your /Moray for
Windows/PovScn directory, and well what do you know, if there isn't a nice
little .bmp file of what you just rendered.  Open it up in your favourite
paint program, (I'd recommend PSP5 myself).  View and admire.  If you want
it as a .jpg, get your paint program to save it as a .jpg (Save As..
normally).

Screen capturing the POV window to save your image is just a little dumb ;)


Have fun,


Matt
