Yeah, that is how I did the sample above, although I struggled with it. I had a heck of a time showing just the shield, and not the black box it was contained in. I didn't clip the edges though, not sure how, and it sounds easier than what I did which was to use a mask. I just wanted to give the shield, logo, or any 2d image, some depth. I was hoping there was a down and dirty garage cheap method. I'd love to use 3D Capturor ($13k) from InSpeck, or ShapeSnatcher ($7.5k) from Eyetronics, but my wallet just isn't thick enough. Hop
