Actually, that seems to be almost the antithesis of what I'm after. It seeks to restrain the randomness to a regular(ish) grid pattern. My problem is that randomly picking points in the plane is too uniform. I want clumps, but I want them at a larger scale than they form naturally from purely random distribution. However, the article you linked, linked an article that linked an article on (something possible or possibly not) called "Perlin Noise" which, whatever it is called, looks like it could be just what I need ... Thanks for the lead. With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
