Thanks for the in depth posting guys.
@Oshyan,
Were you going to continue where you left off?

So, where are we exactly then. The vector is the best way forward or not? Ulco thinks no it sounds. Or at least it sounds like there are an abundance of problems with every option. But what is really the best general or specific solution of the options that have been explored so far? I mean, what do you guys think now is the best place to invest effort and time of the the various ways of doing this? Still vector?
I would hope (I do hope), that at least one method of making rectangular faces and addressing the issues of applying the form to a terrain, could be distilled down to a manageable method (for lack of a better way to say it), that everyone can use. Not simply a clip file, but a method.
Of course, if this is still moving along and there is more ideas being worked out then this may not be the right time to ask that.
As for me, I simply want to make specific images. But if you guys inadvertently transfer your powers to me through this thread then thats fine too! Don't hold out hope though that you are making me smarter. Before this thread and even during parts of it I thought I understood a 5 sided rectangle, Now I think I may be brain damaged
