Rayraz: I'm not sure what might have offended me, so I guess that means I'm not offended. :^) As many times as I've seen the Matrix, I'd forgotten that they used a special digital effect for the bullet trails when Neo goes into "Bullet Time". Pidjy's effect actually looks more realistic, doesn't it.? It looks like the Matrix effect could be easy to do with a glass texture on a flattened sphere and then multireplicate to a path (easier said than done, and a b*tch to render, LOL). Hey, isn't that our AgentSmith in the middle left screenshot from the movie? :^) Tjohn
