Diane- it's not a stupid question because I thought of the exact same question. I was playing around with my HelloSanta image I created when I discovered how to add the snow. After you click the "M" for the materials of the object you want snow on, click the texture source editor botton for texture A. Click the triangle on the bottom left corner of the combination palette. Select "Spline with Snow" and enjoy the "frosty" look. =) Adam
