I think you might have a point there. However, things are always shifting
and I think a lot of images that people put up here have been more
artistically slanted lately. It's a great trend. It really shows how POV-Ray
has developed because people are moving beyond trying to get the thing to
work. In a way, it is a testiment to the documentation as well, which I
personally cite as the best documentation I have ever seen (and it is
particularly rare because it is in /no cost/ software!)
