Did you really use trans-orange or is that flat out trans-red?  It's fine
either way, I am just trying to figure out why the orange is so fiery.  Did
you tweak the images in something like photoshop?

Just a little helpful (hopefully) hint:

If you use the LGEO library through POV-Ray, Trans-Orange comes out red like
this.  The way I fix it is to edit the POV file.  It's actually not hard:

1.  Scroll through the top stuff till you get to color definitions.

2.  Find the definition for "Color57"

3.  Change the rgb values to taste (personally, I change it from <1.0,0.4,0>
to <1.0,0.55,0>.  I also change the "filter" value from 0.95 to 0.85 to make
it show the color a little better, but that's just me)

4.  Save the file and render.

Just thought this might come in handy, Ice Planet 2002 contest and all...


Hope this helps  :^D
