I made a "picture box" using the square bottom ends of pyramids, so that I could have a different texture on each face of the box. My question is; how do I use this same method to make a hexagon, or octagon, etc., that has the square bottoms pyramids facing on the outside, so that I can texture each facet seperately? Basically, I am asking what would be the quickest way to align all the pyramids to construct a polygon, of various facet sizes? Are there any freebie models of this kind that you know of? Thanks Thanks

It's just math. Use the pythagorian Theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2. Extrapolate this to predict size ratios of the pyramids based on side measurements.

Sorry, I am no good at math. Why don't you help all of us innumerists, by calcutaing the ratios for polygons starting from hexagons to whatever they call a 12 sided polygon, or somewhere, thereabouts. Thanks

You could cheat and use a freeware modeling program (like Wings3D or Anim8or.) And then use the classic version of UVmapper which is free. Then it's just a matter of pasting the images into the outlines made by UVmapper and then putting it on the object made in one of the modeling programs. Dunno if that helps any.

I forgot about UVmapper. I'll give it a try. Thanks
