What I find in tresting about the function editor is that people never got into it like people got into the Bryce deep texture editor.. There were people in the Bryce world, that would spend most of their time creating amazing textures, stuff that applied to an object would look real or better...

And yet in the Vue community that whole desire to create textures that are completely extraordinary has never really taken off... Not a criticism, just an observation...  I still remember one Bryce material called flakey paint... I forget who made it... Applied to a pipe, it looked like old paint that was flaking away... The guy who did it created it for one of his scenes... Now I'm sure that there's a way to do the same thing in Vue, I'm just saying, I've never seen that kind of interest from any group of Vue users, where creating textures was an art form... Anyway, an observation, and a thought, nothing else... :)
