Tsk...nobody posts here every 6 hours. ;x Mike, it's been like this for me ever since Renderosity first opened. Many people had the same problem, and many complained. It's never been corrected. Many people went elsewhere. A few (like myself and Tesign) stuck around because we don't know how to find the "log out" button. 0:-) Reproducing a photograph (or a portion of a photograph) seems like a worthy challenge idea, whether the intent is to match up the sky or the terrain or objects or materials, etc. Something for everyone that way. :)
