Look I will most likely always use Bryce to some extent but that said. BRYCE 6.1 and VISTA do not play well together. Bryce plays mostly ok in XP. I have used Bryce since almost its creation, do I want to search for other software, no not really.

But I am tired of Bryce being bounced around from company to company not really improving the parts we really need improved (render engine). Heck if they do open source it might actually work better then it ever has (lots of propeller heads out there).

I just want to keep my options open and start at least dabbling with another program as this one has taken me a long time to at least get comforatable with let alone master.

Great tips wonder if they have as much fun in their forums as I have had in here...
