should read: so long as they aren't converted to triangles, they aren't
triangles.

No. :-)
The book cover is normal.
The version I have put in red all text that is not part of the
novel (such as foreword, copyrigt notice, etc) so that the reader
knows it's not "part of the challenge")

Perhaps, but not necessarily. See my (only) IRTC entry from a while
ago (the Imaginary Worlds round.) It's not all patches, but it could
have been.

Blobs can be modelled entirely in povray, see:
http://i8.yimg.com/8/1ba07f72/h/b89109c0/george.jpg
This is why I bristle at the concept that "POV-Ray is a raytracer, not a
modeller." It both ignores the amazing things that one can do entirely in pov:
(blobs, isosurfaces, amazing animations using trace functions), and reduces this
wonderful art form to exhaustive (ad nauseum) texturing & lighting improvements
on models bought or given away by some cheezy corporation.

It says "Access forbidden from external hosts".
Guess you'll have to tackle your sysadmin or post somewhere else.

If you haven't already, you should enter your topic ideas into the

I think it would be fun if there was a "compulsory figures" category,
like in figure-skating. p.b.i seems to have unofficial ones from time
to time ("torii", "candles" or "reflective sphere over a checkered
plane", for example)
