Sorry for the brief yelp! but I am a new Povray user and was interested in
checking out the LionSnake Modeler only to find that it too like Hamapatch (the
subject of another post) has disappeared following Yahoos closure of all
Geocities sites without providing forward links.

Please does anyone know where if at all theses particular sites have been
relocated.

If there is a Povray moderator to this newsgroup please note the demise of
Geocities effectively makes all links to LionSnake on the Povray site dead
links.

Regards,

Paul

The author of Lionsnake is still pretty active.  He posts here in the newsgroups
from time to time.  Probably he's busy relocating the files somewhere else.

Sorry I took a whole year getting around to answering this, but I 
usually don't read this particular group.

I have set up a new page for LionSnake.  It can be found at:

http://evilsnack.byethost22.com/lionsnake.htm

New versions are announced on povray.news-announcements when they become 
available for download, with a URL for the host page.

Regards,
John
