Thanks guys!! Chanson, sorry I didn't credit you on the swing, I couldn't remember who posted it and in the heat of creating......well you know.....it's a nice object BTW thanks for posting..... I'd like to make the animation available, I just need to work out a host after I properly save it. As for leaning back further, it's hard to do without ripping her arms out of her sockets. Once I set the origin on the swing, I parented the figure to it and just manipulated the swing...it worked great! Krel
