Treat the elliptical area however you want. Some ideas that come to mind: 1) Import the card background into Poser and render your scene over it. If, for example, you want to REALLY focus in on your character, feel free to have head, arms, legs, other elements such as the cups, wands, etc, extend outside the elliptical area. Will add some asymmetry to the card. 2) Render your scene totally in Poser, and then use Photoshop to cut and paste over the card background layer so that your scene fits within the layer. Use a "Multiple" blend or a "transparent" blend, if you like, to bring some of the swirliness of the crystal ball into your image ... might give the appearance that your scene is being displayed in the crystal ball. 8-) 3) Whatever else you come up with, is cool with me 8-) Denise
