Ok, complete misunderstanding from my side. Hm, of course we have the 
choice between various sky models and related generators, Mark's work 
being the latest addition. What is it that you are missing? Cloud 
patterns? Spectral distribution? Or the uber-gensky creating a 
distribution from a simulation of athmosphere, sources etc itself so 
that we could finally do light simulations on Mars' trabants?

Cheers, Lars.
