	If you don't mind my saying, I have been thinking of testing the
envelop or pushing the loophole to see what happens. I can make
PS sit up and beg and I have been thinking of exactly that. Do as
much as possible in PS and then run a two minute render and see
how it fares. 

	My original interest in POV was to do things that are hard in PS
and got addicted. No more struggling with textures just crank
them out. This time (six foot cockroach) I got a compliment on
the wallpaper and I stated that it was created in PS. 

	Anyone else feel like testing the limits? As long as it crawls
through a renderer at some point it appears to be acceptable. And
then renderer appears to mean that the package uses the word
render in its sales brochure.
