This is an interesting idea, but there are a lot of questions to sort out about who is a guru and how would a guru contest compare to the monthly challenge. Some people are killer modellers, but when they build a scene, it doesn't look as good as something made by someone with a good eye for composition and that leaves out all the people who really work the textures over. Also, would such a contest allow any postwork or imports from other programs at all? If so, does that mean someone is a Bryce guru or just good with lots of programs? I like the idea of allowing more time to participate in this contest, if we have it. I also like the idea of trying to provide each other with more answers (although I always see plenty of information here). Perhaps we could give a list of suggested information to include about any submission. For example: What version of Bryce, what parts are from elsewhere or were done in postwork, any nifty tricks you used to achieve an effect. A lot of people are good about including this, I often forget, but it is useful information to have. Lin
