Dear All,

I'm still having trouble rendering highly transparent (alpha is set to
0.02) spheres in Tachyon or pov-ray.
This <http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/7707/screenshotszj.jpg> is a screen
shot, tachyon gives this<http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/4223/tachyon.jpg>,
pov-ray gives this <http://img832.imageshack.us/img832/8771/povrayh.jpg>.
I'm happy with the screenshot, but I would need a higher resolution for
printing.

Best regards,
Ajasja
