Do you want to take a crack at some Datsville pics? The .pov files can be
downloaded from the geocities site:
http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Fields/1864/datsville.html
Render time for me is up to 4 hrs., which really limits the number of pics I
can do. You'll need a swapfile set up on a drive with >800 MB free (I have 1
GB free, and it worked, so maybe it needs that much, I'm not sure.)
If it works, and you'd like to help out with more pics, I could send you
camera and lookat coordinates to plug in and run. Then it's just a matter of
converting to .jpeg and uploading to LUGNET.
LMK,
