Tim,
I use the LGEO library, and use L3P with the L3Pao to generate the POV
files.  I haven't had many problems at all.  Certain pieces don't seem to
work, hence the lack of the 24-tooth crown gear in my pictures.

<snip>
Wow, I like!  I'm seeing the rounded edges on your parts - are you using the
L2P library, or someone elses?

I guess I don't have L2P set up right, because L3PAO won't generate the file
when I have that option checked - and I've been too lazy to go in and fix
it.

Well, 1) I'm running 1ghz/256 RAM (not the latest and greatest, for a laptop
its up there), 2) My screen res is 1600x1200, so I decided I wanted to make
a wallpaper out of it, and 3) I just set it up overnight and it was done in
the morning.  Anyways, I like the look of transparent bricks - as I said, I
was inspired by the since disappeared BrickDreams site.


I also really enjoyed the Brickdreams images.  I had most of them saved, but
unfortunately it was on my old computer which died sometime back.
I'm running a 900 Mhz/256 RAM, but my computer is in my bedroom, and I don't
like listening to the fans while I try to go to sleep.  If I want to render
a really complex image I let it run while I'm at work during the day.

<snip>
I'd have to say distant future at this point.  There's a few more critical
automation needs on the site which should be taken care of first.  Plus, I'm
tied up with a lot of site work right now that hasn't hit public view yet
(but will soon).  Its a good idea though, and if someone would like to code
it I have no objection.

1.  Ok, wants.

Haha :-)  Well, I'd like to see something like this too.  Especially more
artwork-ish than just MOCs in scenes.

Thanks for all of the work you put into LDraw.org.  I'm glad to have one
place to go to get the parts for setting this system up.  Have you tried the
.dat file screen saver?  I use it, and really like it.

-Joel
