[Bf-funboard] Sky Generator

[Chris Burt]

Hmetalcowgirl, Eeshlo and I are going to be working on volumetric 
textures (a.k.a. Hypertextures) in the near future. Until then... 
Blender's textures are more than sufficient for many of the situations 
you would require. The rest of the situations just require some 
Gimping/Photoshoping and some patience. I don't like it when people say, 
"This is missing!" when in reality its something missing from their 
creativity or inventiveness, not to mention unwillingness to read the 
docs and/or experiment.
