You're like gold lurking around here gebe, I've said it once and I'll say it again, thanks! Here is as far as I could make it since my last post. I see some of your images are not having quite the same white-out as mine, allthough my figure's .cr2 is about 100MBs, which leaves a slighty larger margin of error for my redundancy theory! your advice paid off but I still think there is much room for tweaking, and am still hoping to run into someone who's seen this before?
