Pagzone...network rendering does work on a still. Use the tiling option. And for anyone bemoaning Bryce render times, remember, Bryce is and will always be a pure raytracer. No hybrid renders here. Corel Photopaint is my favorite program after Bryce and just before Poser. I prefer its features, functions, interface, ease of use, over Photoshop by miles. As for Corel's updater to Bryce 4, there were some problems with their initial patch which were fixed within days. Bryce 5 has new features that people have been screaming for for ages now. As well as some interface and usability tweaks that Metacreations never bothered to fix. Basic things like honoring the task bar in Windows which should have been there all along but weren't...now they are. Render progress in the taskbar, save and open dialogs that remember their last used directories even between sessions. No more 20 pixel limit for the brush in the TE. etc. etc. As for usability, this is the best Bryce yet. Of course there's more to do but now we can be quite sure we'll get a Bryce 6. Just a year ago we didn't even know if there ever would be a Bryce 5. Spit
