You might try a 'splicing' border with fragments of the images 
interleaved to produce the transition.

Or...rather than a graded transition, just some sort of framing.  I 
think the blunt edges abutted is part of the problem.

I'm not too sure what you mean, Jim.
I'm working on the sky first, rewriting the code for the stars. {I'm using a
modeller and having 3000 stars as 3000 objects was slowing it down a bit. (Beta
testing and you have to push the limits :)} After getting the day sky to blend
in with the night sky I'll look at the plane.
So how would I splice the images on the floor? I'm thinking along the lines of
your mosaic table and can't imagine how it could be done.
The framing is a good idea as well especially since the North - South faces
don't match up.

  I tried to reply to your post last night Stephen, but for whatever reason, 
my newsreader, (OE), just wouldn't connect to the povray server. This isn't 
new, every Sunday night, I can't connect for some reason. It seems to be 
doing this for around 2 to 3 hours at a time. Anyone else getting this using 
a newsreader? (The main website groups show ok).

  Anyway, what I wanted to ask is where do you get that buddha model from? I 
want to have a play...  ;)

  I agree that there should be some kind of 'fade-in/fade-out' tranquility 
in your image somewhere. I think that would make it with the concept you 
have, (which I like).

Just a quick reply before going for something to eat. (I've just driven up to
Glasgow)
I found the Buddha at 
http://www.3dvia.com/
You will have to register and search for Budda.

I'm working on it but have some slight problems, then I will work on the floor. 
It is just a diversion from the my Tina Chep animation and I don't want to spend
too much time on it.

Yes, happens once in a while, whatever the day or the hour by the way.
