Hi guys, This should be an easy question for all you Carrara pros out there. I need to make a simple playing card. Using photoshop I made some card textures (front and back). I figured that there should be a way, to using a multichannel mixer, to apply the back texture on one side of the card and a front texture (like an ace for example) on the other side of the card. The card is just a simple spline objet with a very thin width. But I can't get it to work. I know that there are various workarounds to this,perhaps using UV mapping or even using two separate objects for the back and front of the cards. But it just seems like it should be possible to assign one texture map on one side and another on the other side...am I just crazy? Cheers, H&B

Well, you're crazy but that's besides the point. ;) Yep, it's easy.

Thanks Mark. I knew there was a way (and that I was crazy). Cheers, H&B
