Ok I want to make a fountain that looks like a fountain and acts like a
fountain (except it doesn't move).  I can't seem to make anything that
is actualy close to a real fountain.  I just need a direction to go or
the object to use.  Please help me.

Kenny

  A lathe object is pretty useful for making fountain shaped objects.
If you need help creating the spline for the outline I suggest you
take a look at the program at the following site:

 Chris Colefax has a particle generator that is good for making the
water for the fountain.  The file I believe is called spray.inc and
can be found at:
