Hey everyone,
  One thing that Pov-ray doesn't seem to support is conic blob componants
(would be similar to the cylinder blob componants but the radius changes
from one end to the next).

I've been working on an include file that can be used, but I was wondering
if anyone had any ideas besides defining a series of spheres and adjusting
their strenghts and sizes manually.

Thank you for you help.

Not only the conical components are missing; It would be nice if there
were also toroidal and, why not,cubical components (have I forgot some
important shape?)!

What do you mean with ' adjusting their strenghts and sizes manually'?
You could make it with a #while-loop, and that wouldn't be manually.
