David,
Great work! I think that I remember you saying aways back,
when you were just working on the scene, that you used
textures on plane surfaces for the trees. If so, how did
you get such great 3D effects on them?
As an OT afternote, I attended the X-Conference in D.C.
a few weeks ago. VERY interesting!
