I haven't decided whether this is another planet or post-toxic-holocaust
Earth.
I want to put a leg sticking up out of one of the polyps, can you folks
tell me where to get poser?

I was just playing around with nested while-loops and rand.
Look for these stones to be an asteroid belt sometime soon.

Thanks for all the great images, and inspiration!

Bill

Not a bad image, but really big file...remember that lots of people are 
still on slow dialup connections. The rule I use is to keep it below 
200KB, and to upload it on a web site if it is bigger.
Your water looks much too blue...it might be the sky, but it looks like 
you are using a blue pigment, and the normal and reflection need 
adjustment. It certainly looks alien though...maybe this planet just has 
a lot of copper in the oceans. Nice job on the rocks, they could use 
some more color variation though.

Great image, but the file is huge, I thought that the connection to the 
server had died.
