This is true, it takes an artist to get something really good, but admittedly,
the software will play a part. I can take Bryce 1 and get a really nice sunset
and it will take all of five minutes. To do it in POV-Ray takes  a lot longer
because there is a much more challenging learning curve than in Bryce. The
sample image you posted is impressive, yes, but my questions involve how the
thing was made. Are those bricks an image map? Are they a plug in someone
other than the artist devised? How much of the image was made by the computer
and how much was actually made by the artist?
