I got there first. Good Grief.......... All power to you Mr.Al-Mohammad. As regards textures of Snooker Balls, you don't actually need to do a lot, they have no numbers to worry about and just a single colour per ball. A lttle reflectivity is desirable so the easiest thing to do is create a bryce sphere, you can here resize the sphere to your required size., Click the 'E' in the panel next to the sphere, this brings you to the Materials editor. Select category Simple and Fast and from the resultant choice select Red Shiny Plastic, Click the Tick and your back in the Bryce window with a Red Snooker Ball. Of course you need fifteen of these, so while you original ball is still selected go to EDIT/Multi-Relicate and put in 15. In the middle box, top line type a 5, all the others should be zeros, the size boxes should all be 100%. Press o.k. and you should now 15 Red balls albeit on top of each other. Select your original Red ball and click the 'E', you can see it's colour in the 'diffuse' spot, to change it click and hold while selecting new colour. You will need a yellow, green, brown, blue, pink, black and a white 'cue' ball. Sorry I'm no good at making chalk!! Bye now........Dennis
