I seem to have some gamma problems. The image is actually supposed to appear
fairly dark with rich, deep colors. That's what it looks like on my computer. I
converted it to a .bmp then back to a .png to try to get rid of the gamma info,
but I guess it's still not right. Sorry...

I think your gamma is ok, Dave. I am pretty sure about mine and I see your 
image exactly as you tell us to see it :-)

Does it look different if you render the scene with POV 3.6.2?

I think Metallica's song "One" makes their opinion of war abundantly clear. The
feeling they convey and their awesome musical talent can give a person chills.

Great image, Dave! The colors look fine over here.

Thanks very much. I think fine details make an image much more interesting.

Haven't tried that - there are some version 3.7 features in use that prevent the
scene from being renderable with 3.6.

Thanks for the kind words. And I couldn't agree more about the quality of
musical talent.
