Description
An old, worn and wind blown dirt road trail in a wash coming up from the lower desert. I used Image Maps to drive where the Eco-System and Materials were placed. This way I was able to keep the growth out of the rutts in the trail, as well as placement and Scaling falloff.
I used nothing but Vue 5 Infinite to create this, other then Photoshop CS2 for the Border and Sig.

Good job at figuring out how to do this. Nice balance of plants and rocks. - bob

Nice terrain work!

Excellent piece - how about a thumbnail to let the viewings explode? And btw, congrats to the pod today! Very well done!

Thanx all for the comments! :) And yes, the POD was sure awesome! I tried my best to make a thumbnail, but NEVER could get the file small enough to let the site allow the image to upload! I can't see how others have such large thumbnails and with such great quality and still keep the file size down? I tried and tried and tried in PS to get a small sized jpg and I just could do it. If someone knows how to do this, let me know and I'll post one up? Or better yet, just send me a small version if you already know how to do this and I'll use that. I gave up. I had the settings all the way down to 2 and then it looked like crud.

A very good technical job with the software. Nice ruts!

Wonderful work - it deserves POD. As far as the thumbnail, just render one in Vue 200x150 final. Usually comes out pretty close.

Thanx! Not sure why I couldn't do this in PS though, but I'm just glad it worked :)

Just thought I'd let you all know, I accidentally deleted all my Vue scene files and everything else LOL So, I'm busy working on a new desert scene and will post it as soon as I get something worth posting, which hopefuly will be sooner then later :) And thanx all.........md :)
