I finally managed to let an IBL render finish to completion and now I realize that I shouldn't have done that.  From now on I will want all my renders to be IBL even though this took 2 days to complete.  There is just that much difference.  I am loading a small version of the scene here.  [Click here to see it larger in my gallery.](http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=2434206)  I am also going to try and put a gif file in the post following this one to illustrate the difference between IBL and sunlight.
