IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
The elements of a chocolate cake and the tools needed to put them all
together. They're all laid out on the countertop, ready for the baker to come
along and do his work. We've got:
 - a whisk
 - the recpie, in a plastic holder
 - a bowl
 - a sink, with running water and a faucet
 - a milk carton
 - 2 squares of chocolate
 - a stick of butter
 - 2 eggs
 - a spoonful of sugar
 - a cup of flour

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
Almost everything was created and laid out in Moray. The bitmaps for the milk
carton and recpie were created in Paint Shop Pro. Some of the textures were from
the sample texture libraries provided with Moray; the rest are of my own design.
Then, the .POV file was exported, and POV-Ray was set to do its work. Several
preliminary renderings were done; thus, POV-Ray has been very busy...
After POV-Ray was done, the copyright message was added with Paint Shop Pro and
the image was compressed to JPEG with cjpeg.
