GreG: Thanks, I will to everything you mentioned. BTW, I went over to the Imagine User Group and downloaded all of the messages. Quite a group here <g>! Reading the messages was a revelation. I can't wait to try all of the things that were mentioned, the problem is that my time is somewhat limited (sigh). I'm also going to download some of the images in the library. There's nothing like looking at other images to get your own creative juices going. I'm an artist by profession and I find that looking at other artist's work always provides a jolt to not only do more work, but to do better work. Also, I do have another question about the METALS texture, (thought you were done with that, didn't you? <g>). OK, I use the 4 boxes adjacent(?) to Metal Numbers:, Finished:, Dull/Polished, and Antique. The image comes out looking fine. I couldn't ask for better. BUT, what are the other 12 boxes used for? When I put numbers in them, the image doesn't seem to change at all. Thanks for everything. Joe
