Flake in California does cool Snowflakes!!
They were done with ArtMatic they look OK by themselves but heightmapped/lattice in Bryce they look much better -that is more like real snowflakes. Hi-rez (1024), Solid, no filter, no smoothing; this way they look "snowy". Use the shallow filter to make them look more flat and "chrome-like".

Good stuff! I ran a contest on the UI List a while back to make flakes. Mine are here if you haven't seen them: www.perpetualocean.com/flakegallery.html

I went to flakegallery.html and was disappointed I thought for sure I would see my face there. What Up anaglyph! Yea I remember your contest, by any chance was Peter Miller the winner? His snowflakes are the best ArtMatic ones.

Cool. Bryce is a one of the funnest of them all for texture maping and generating a 3d landscape or shape with an image. I am learning finally that ArtMatic Voyager is almost the same difference and then some. The results are more fractal-like than an acurate representation of the image that is used and that makes it a little different. Nice samples!
