I will most definitely look into Terragen; I love realistic terrain renders. A lot of pro 3D people diss Bryce, but I dunno; I like making pretty peictures, and I don't like to take days to do it. Those hieroglypics are rongorongo from Rapa Nui (Easter Island). They are as yet untranslated, and are found carved into wooden boards, all of which are probably in museums. The image is not embedded in my signature, but referenced from a web page. Got it by reading the HTML doing a "View > source" in Explorer. So go check out http://www.rapanui.cl/eng/index.html (it's the official Chilean Easter Island site) and you'll find it and other graphics. There are also two rongorongo fonts I know of. Unfortunately, not freeware. They are at http://www.deniart.com/rongo.shtml and http://www.islandheritage.org/dingbatfont.html . aloha, emspace.
