Huri, I would still suggest you open a template (or for that matter, just a texture) for the dog or some other model in some 2D graphics program. You will see immediately what they are referring to--to simplify it quite a lot, imagine a can as a model. Now--think about the label that wraps around the can. That's sort of how a texture works. If you take the label off and straighten and flatten it out, that represents a texture map more or less smile. Thanks so much Misha. Nice of you to say. Diane
