Wow
 An HTML post and Netscape can't read it at all.. must have an
improperly closed table or something, but it shows up in teh reply
window... very strange.

I like the image, and it has possibilites, but I can see how lots of
components show up to low to be seen. You might be able to improve the
algorithm some by focusing it on the surface... then again, you may be
doing that already.

Keep up the good work. I'd like to see this go places. I tried the same
thing a while ago to make water dropelts, and with some settings it made
a nice little villiage as welll.
