I think what you stumbled into was the inverted bumpmap. when you make a for the letters to be bumped up into the above layer, you can reverse this so that the letters seem to be pressed into the above picture. that might be the look your looking for. if so, in the bumpmap dialog box click the invert option. peace, Ariel Kass __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
