The 'technical' answer to your question is that a program or system which 'assists' the artist in the creation of a work through point and click then 'generate' will imbue the 'newbie' with a 'wow-factor', falsely imagining that the result is 'kewl, brilliant and has never been done before'.
Unfortunately that is very definitely NOT the case, as everyone/anyone messing with the proggy a first time will have created these 'default' images...be they palm-treed islands or balloon sausage-animals and chrome spheres floating over water.
The 'ideal' is to treat ANY graphic proggy...be it Bryce, or Photoshop, or whatever as 'JUST a tool' to generate/devise a work of your creation and not its creation.
The same issue applies to filters or plugins......deftly used, they can be a boon, ineptly overused they are detracting....

A design made in bryce is better when you use the program to create the design rather than letting the program create it for you.
Novice users of the program will use the preset shapes, skies and textures that come with the program and they usually never go on to experiment beyond that, and the end result is usually a repetition of the same scenery and the same metalic orbs and shapes floating on top of a water plane.
Once you start to experiment beyond the preset shapes and you actually start to model images via terrain editor or alpha planes, and manipulating the textures to create your own, then you will experience the full effect of the program.

Kona...Bliss doesn't really use Bryce anymore. At least not much of his work over the last year or so.
He uses Vue d'Esprit, Lightwave and WorldBuilder
