Ron, what I suggest is a script which uses the AmigaDOS 'exists' function to detect when a certain file is created. Since you can't tell whether Imagine is finished with frame X or not, what you do is loop on an 'exists' test for frame X+1. As soon as frame X+1 is created, you can be sure that the current frame is done, and you can start processing it. This method forces you to create an 801th frame, or else the 800th frame would never get processed. As for the granite texture, I whipped up a quick & dirty brush in DPaint, which I'll send you by ConpuServe Mail. Maybe it can serve a purpose until you find a better one. Blaq!
