Heh, I'm just a newbie at a lot of this. The only Benzier patch I've used
was in the pov help file. Oh well, I'll keep reading and learning. At the
moment I'm trying to do a shuttle craft for the starship.
www.geocities.com/dafrahn/pics/nornfleet2.gif  - 159k and a newer look.
The old look was a 759k gif. (it's still up as nornfleet1.gif if you can
spare the bandwidth)
I should start looking through some of the files I've been downloading to
see how things are done.
You're right, blobs can be slow to render, especially on a Cyrix machine. I
do like the smooth, streamlined look, though.
