Image description: This image represents the solid gold nature of the 
  entertianment industry. With all the glitter and glitz from every facade.
Description of how this image was created: This work started out life as
  the first scene I managed to render from povray, note the tri colored
  spheres. And with the indispensible help from the great people from
  news:comp.graphics.rendering.raytracing, evolved into the shining 
  final image. I would especially like to thank Derek Owens for his
  excellent tutorial that is written in a language so even an artist
  can understand.
    The composition was created around the three spheres and the CD disc
  in a geometric abstract style, to emphasize the reflective texture,
  and the bright and malliable properties of solid gold metal.
