IMAGE DESCRIPTION: The powdered water deliveryman unloads his wares for another satisfied 
customer.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
Well, my original idea for this topic wasn't working, so I took the humor tack (not 
necessarily always the best idea). :) A friend of mine once asked me, "What do you add
to powdered water?" After successfully convincing a few people that my CD cleaner 
was actually a CD REWINDER, I decided that somebody probably would buy the stuff,
and thus this image was conceived.  Almost everything was created and placed using
Moray for Windows, but the textures were done in the POV editor by hand.  All objects
consist of primitives, and there are no meshes, blobs, etc. in the image.  The
textures for the truck and the boxes were created in Photoshop and manipulated with
LViewPro.  I used an area light to get the soft shadows.
