IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 
    A cup of hot chocolate in front of a warm fire. This is my
first attempt at a real scene, and I know it won't be as good as many other
entries, but I wanted to participate anyway. 


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 
    trial and error. I thought of
something that might look good, then tried to figure out how to do it. (some
worked and are still here, others were discarded.) I used the Fire texture from
Povlab.inc (author unknown, I downloaded it from somewhere) as a rough guide
for my fire texture. All comments are welcome; I'm new and could use the help!
