Suzy….(if I may?) I am new to alot of this, but I just did a commercial for a client that used a waving banner. It was a forked on each end flag, with the clients name in the center. I created a rectangular forked "trapezoid" and then sliced it. after slice applied skin. created a 3ds image on red cotton weave cloth, saved as a tga file, and then used as a material to assign from materials library to the object. By adjusting scaling and whatnot, got the image to center up on the skinned objects. Manipulating sliced objects, vertices, etc…ended up with a nice wavy banner. Since I am jumping in on this late, you may already have a solution, or have something in mind that is much more suitable….let me know if this is useful to you.
