Scott, my hero!!! Indeed my patterns was 41 pixels in height!!!!
Darn primitive earth tech! ;) Where's the freedom of expression in that i wonder? so many patterns, so many that are rev or mac incompatible "by design"! pfff - If the web was restricted so... woah... Im sure Rev will conquer this problem soon or later but meanwhile, One more error detector to write...
