Not at this stage, unless the VPython team have added this recently.
I am working on a VPython project at the moment. It's main focus is porting
VPython to run on the Wedge 3D visualisation system, but a possible extension
is to add  support for image wrapping of shapes like Java 3D does. Not
promising anything and unlikely to be done before mid 2003.
