hee hee -- ya mean that spot right where the light hits ya during a hot day when ya sweat in Arizona? Not at all too shiny if you've got pale skin -- or dark skin like mine, which tends to be pretty darn shiny! lol Given that that's the only spot in the entire map where the light is directly on the skin, I'd say ya might have to reconsider. Specular mapping is an awesome tool if it's used properly -- but it does have limitations as noted. Now, just what is the name of that faboo tex, and where can ya get it, I wonder....

thou and I, my friend, can, in the most flunkey world, make, each of us, one non-flunkey, one hero, if we like: that will be two heroes to begin with. (Carlyle)
