I _knew_ that it was time for a new wallpaper image. Now I have it.
Your work continues to amaze me. This is excellent.

I really like the clouds. These are some of the more interesting clouds i've
seen in a while. And then WHAM! I see the grey gunk on the horizon. I've
done quite a bit of fishing on the atlantic ocean, and maybe it's just
because my "camera" is closer to the water, but i've never seen such
ugliness masking the horizon.

Maybe it's too thick, maybe it's too grey. maybe both. but i think it needs
some work. Other than that, I really enjoy your textures in most of your
images. The metal, water, and sky here are no exception.

Keep up the good work. Oh, you know what might look neat in this sky? Well,
you know how every so often you are able to see a very faint sliver of the
moon during the middle of the day... i think that might look neat here. Not
a big moon, something visually the size of our moon when it is furthest away
from us.

Good thing I don't have an idea for the fortress round (oh wait I just might
have come up with something, but it's not exactly a fortress perse). And how
did you make the station/fortress thing?

Wooooww!!

I was STUNNED as I saw the picture and I immediately checked who's the
sender. Of course! H.E.Day!  But I don't believe you anymore. This can't
be done in 3 days, and certainly not with Moray / Povray.  :o)  You got
to have some tricks, that I would like you to share with us.

I like every bit of this image. Not fully realistic clouds but VERY nice
anyway. The atmosphere and fantasy in this picture is superb. It doesn't
look like typical POV or raytracing, it looks like a great painting.
Even more realistic than most paintings.

Sorry to give you praise only, but you deserve it.  :o)  But I think you
should consider a new challange: To teach us!

I second this motion!
Lets call a vote. All in favor of H.E. Day trying to 
teach us: say "Yea", those not: say "Nay".

HE Day's been pretty good about sharing code in the past.  He might not
share the code for this until the IRTC round is done (I wouldn't), but he
might be willing to share select bits.  Of course, then you have to learn
from the works of the master rather than the master himself, but I've had
some success looking at other code that I've found good.

Of course, it'd be nice if everyone formatted the way I like it.  Gotta work
on that POV code pretty printer.... ;)

    Hmmm... find the "{"s and "}"s and count them, match them to each other
and keep track of indents, same with the "<,>"s and carriage return before
key words like "pigment" or "blob".... easily done I suspect. POV-Formatter
with pretty printer...

    I like it...

Oh, sure, it's easy to do, but I haven't found the time yet.  Also, if I
want to make it available to the rest of you guys, I'd have to make it
somewhat configurable, because my style is likely not what some like
(obviously my style is not like the style of whomever did the Windows GUI
front end, anyway. ;) )

What'd be really great is to use the pov parser and just put a different
back end on it.  But the pov license doesn't allow it.

For some reason, I'm thinking "fortress".
