Hi Jeff,

I've checked your new tutorial. It looks great and simple.
I have a question about your render settings though.

Why do you set FG max and min radius to the same value? I've read that these should be 10x apart, basicly 1/10th and 1/100th of the scene diameters.
What are your findings upon these values/rules of thumbs?

rgds,
