I thought it looked pretty cool too, although the camera is too far away
to see much of the detail. I've never actually gotten media to do what
I want at all, much less this. :)

Actually, render time was about 30 seconds. I was using megapov so the
glows aren't actually media, but as for versions, I was using 3.5, and MP
v0.7. Also, I'm on a beefed up athlon xp 1700 mhz system so that might have
had something to do with render times ;)

Yeah, wouldn't it be nice if I could model organics?
I always did wonder though if Blizzard was going to make SC2 with those
creatures.

I'm satisfied with it for now... Does anyone know how to set
transparencies, such as 50% transparency, in fireworks or photoshop? I want
a picture under this to show through if possible.

You can get POV to render the background as transparent. Put
Output_Alpha=true into your POVRAY.INI or use the +UA command line
parameter. Oh, and you'll need to use an output file format that supports
transparency (.png or .tga) - this can be set, again in POVRAY.INI, using
Output_File_Type=N for .png or =T for .tga, or use the command line
parameters +FN (.png) or +FT (.tga)...
See section 5.2.2.3.1 of the POV help file for more info on output file
types and transparency...
Oh, and I've never tried this, but my guess would be, if you want, say,
50% transparency you could put background { colour rgbt <1,1,1,0.5> } in
your scene file... Can anyone confirm that ??

background essentially doesn't exist, I guess you could say. It's not a
object so maybe that's the logic. So the obvious: putting a backdrop plane
is a possible workaround. Use pigment {rgbt 0.5}, rgbf includes the color
value in the transparency and so isn't reliable for exact percentage. You'll
also need to set finish {ambient 0 diffuse 0} to prevent any color intensity
shifts due to light sources shining onto it.
Oh yeah, I like that stasis chamber too. Needs a squid-like creature inside
;-) Also some erratic electrical arcs crossing from the bottom unit to the
upper just for effect.

Now, that doesn't work either. It just turns out dark grey... but I finally
got the effect I wanted by cutting it into pieces in photoshop and setting
opacity on the layers.
