i didn't like the more of this and more of that requests too, but sometimes remaining silent is also a good answer.
IMHO, too arogant, there are too much silent answers, I would prefare more comments and discussions, preferably polite, coz unpolite answers very much distracts new users. And if none would answer 3 sTupID qUEsTioNs, there wouldn't be initiated quite an interesting discussion about rotboxes;)

I think the best answer would be to somehow implement import of .map files as used in so many fractal generators
This would satisfy everyone as there are many tools for making or editing such files, and they can even be made in a text editor!
Map colours must be addapted for M3D use first, becouse in 2D colours looks a bitt different than in 3D. Surface is fractal inside, and alsou there lightning, shadow, textures... Too much colours and contrast distract from this and very often looks as noise. IMHO best result I got when I just took a best part of the Fractint colour file and then expanded it to the whole M3D colour map.
There are map file generators, but then they are 2D adapted and adapted for old colour methods (just too much colours).
Maybe someone (say taurus66 ) should make some very short tutorial on Rotboxes with some 2, 3 step by step examples how to got cool pics. So if you download M3D for a first time you can look what it is and how to make them by yourself. Its not so intuitevely or ready tu use. So then there would be much more good pictures ower deviantart;)
