Crazyfish,

I think the bit you might be missing is that to make a JPEG file, you need
something other than just Moray/Povray. For example PaintShop Pro(PSP).

The procedure is basically as follows. Open the BMP file that POVRay makes
in PSP (File/Open), then choose File/Save and in the Save As box that appear
click on the Save As Type box and pick JPG, then click Save. This will
create a JPEG file in the samo directory. You can then post this or do
whatever. This procedure is the same for most Paint type programs, others
are Photoshop, Picture Publisher, Painter, ...  There are also DOS utilities
that will do the conversion for you, but they tend to be a bit trickier to
use it you are a relatively new computer user.

Hope this helps.

Gordon

PS Incidently, you really should read the manuals. Even if it doesn't make a
lot of sense, you will pick up something, then try to use your new
knowledge, then read it again, .............

That is how we all learn POV.
