Quote - Thanks for your idea, Thunderstone... so in Matmatic that would be:

s = Surface()
s.Displacement = .012 * Color_Sub(ImageMap("MyColourPic.jpg"))

or, in nodal terms,

ImageMap -> Color_Math (Subtract) Value_1  -> PoserSurface displacement channel (.012)

Nope it would be:
ImageMap -> Math_Function(Subtract) input 1 Value _1 ->PoserSufrace displacement channel (0.0012) I always make the displacement value smaller than the bump value but you got to tweak it according to your taste.

I don't think you can do subtracting with the Color_Math node....
