  Everytime you render an image in the Povray window an image is being
written to your hard drive. If you are using the windows version of
Povray it is probably a 24 bit .bmp file. Look for it in the same
directory as the file is located in.

  Since you are a new user allow me to suggest that you take a look at
the Povray VFAQ. It answers this question and many others you are likely
to have in the near future. It was put together to answer some of the
very most frequently asked questions and you will find some great replies
in there. Also be sure to stop by my web page and visit the links section.
It contains links to tools, utilities, programs, and tutorial sites and
you will likely find no better source of Pov related material anywhere.

The VFAQ can be found at:
