Hoof, Thanks! The texture was an easy create is PSP8 with the offset feature. The random colors were produced using noise and the pixilate feature to produce the greyscale, which was then set to darken a red layer... make sense? didn't to me when I first tried it... but boy does it make good bricks!

Mateo, There is a light, just not pointed at the entry... I figured that it might be a bit overwhelming... maybe I ought to try it the other way...

Dex, The attached image is the detail of the crate, but when you render at 1024x768 you lose something... The ciggies and paper were not something that I thought of, but definitely something to add, maybe an ashtray/can... Oh, yeah and I forgot the bumpers. Everytime I remember, I tell myself, then promptly forget... Mind like a sieve, this one...

Pete, the bump has to be that heavy, or the image looks too flat. Believe me, I tried. Which floor tex? The asphalt is a "noisy" black with a matte black layer above cut up by a grunge opacity mask (no tiling here). The concrete is a map, and is not tileable. I figure since we see so little of it, it might not make a difference... maybe it does...

Thanks for the crits, guys!
