lol... the material was the blue plastic i found in the materials.... it was an experiment to see what would happen if i.....

i came up with some other unusual effects by adding in a mirrored sphere.... but am working right now on something else.... it's telling me it has 180 hours to go.  mmmmm, maybe i shouldn't have made the sphere i encased the whole thing in metallic......  grins

and what the heck is a one-sided versus ????? material?  this one has no materials other than came in vue (and some massive fooling around in the function editor by me)

i actually started out with a plane, but didnt like the light seeping around the edges.  i wanted to enclose the light and have it shine through cracks =D

and the above taught me what happens if i do "this" in the function editor of the random transparency ummm... section (node?)...

but please PLEASE explain more about one-sided versus more sided materials....?????

thanks =D

i'm always trying to learn more
