Hi, Dave. Interesting read. Reminded me of a simple poker chip I made
(code is long gone) and now I wonder how it would've looked using a glass
texture.
OT, thanks for the nice lampshade image. You might consider posting images
in the povray.binaries.images group and then pointing us in that direction
with your post. We'll look there. It just helps a bit to keep some
smattering of organization when, three months down the road, we scratch our
heads trying to remember where we saw this beautiful crystal lampshade.
Thanks much.
