Attached Link: here's a little screenie of what I'm doing:

My Bryce (v6, I think) is too slow in rendering. I've rendered more complex scenes in the high quality mode in much less time. it's strange because it's already been more than half an hour and it's still at 6%, even though the resolution is only 1440x900.

so, any tips on how I could make Bryce faster? I already tried closing all programs I have open and let it render in peace, but didn't really work out.
