I can't see anything. Ok, I can: A dozen or so dark-green random
lines here and there on a black background, and some dark-grey dots.
Nothing coherent, though.
How about bumping up lighting a bit? Or preferably a lot.

The original looks fine on my monitor (LCD), but here's one with lighting
turned up 3x. In addition to the lights within the structure, it's
illuminated with:
light_source {
<40,20,10>
color rgb .75*<0.5,0.5,0.45>
area_light
<2, 0, 0> <0, 0, 2>
8, 8
adaptive 0
jitter
circular
orient
fade_power 2
fade_distance 20
}
Looks like I forgot to increase fade_distance after moving the light back a
bit, but since it looked good on my screen I didn't notice before. I used
assume_gamma 1.0.

PS - sorry about the file size on the first one - I meant to post the .jpg
version.

Thanks for the opinion - I agree the background needs some work. Chris
wrote some great macros (galaxy.inc) but the usage in the scene requires a
little more attention on my part. I was having trouble balancing the star
size with the AA settings - the smaller ones tended to get washed out
completely. I may instead try some sort of a pattern on a sky sphere. If
I have any luck I'll repost.

Some newsreaders do that with PNG files. Turnpike (which is what I use)
always makes PNG files look very dark. I'm not familiar with Enigmail,
perhaps that does the same. If you view the image in a graphics
application you may well find that it appears somewhat brighter.
When I first saw it in Turnpike, I thought it was a blank image. It was
only when I couldn't work out what the joke was that I looked closer and
saw the faint green lines.

No problem here, though, with an LCD screen. This version is a bit lighter
and showing some more details.
So, what could make the difference in viewing?

For the stars, could you try changing a bit the colors, to various soft
levels of yellow, red and blue? I think it would increase immersion.

Much more visible (although most of the tubes are still quite dark
grey...)
