John, Thanks for the information. Do you happen to have Motion Blur Publishing's address? I'd love to know the exact price along with shipping and handling fees for the book/disk. I've downloaded the compendium in the DL area, but haven't had time to REALLY study it. I just got the program, and the documentation is appalling!!! This thing looks like it should come with a two semester college course. So far I'm so intimidated that I haven't installed it into my hard disk yet. In addition to Imagine and Map/Surface Master, I got something called ProTextures, which are high quality maps in both HAM and 24 bit versions, to map across Imagine objects. I can't imagine (no pun intended) what Impulse has in store for us with Imagine 2.0! BTW, Creative bundled Imagine: A Guided Tour with the program. I guess its a nice tape to get started, but it certainly doesn't contain any less than obvious aspects of the software (indeed, at times I think they actually quote from it!). I seem to remember a video made by people at Impulse. Do you remember its name and where it can be gotten (and your opinion of it, if you've seen it)! Thanks again! -RSL-
