Subject: Resize Image_Map Nodes?

Hi all,

Is there any script out there that will re-size the Image_Map node(s) for a material? I use a lot of seamless tiles and I thought it would be nice to have something like this. To be more specific, a user could enter a scale factor on the script. The script would then find all the image_map nodes for the currently selected material and multiply the U_Scale and V_Scale by the factor provided by the user.

I actually have a lot of other ideas too, but I'll start with this. One thing I'll say is that it shouldn't scale an Image_Map if it's hooked up to Reflection. Maybe not Refraction either (haven't played with that one).

So, I guess if anyone has anything like this, I'm really interested, and if not, can anyone direct me on how I'd start out writing one on my own? Maybe there is some similar script I could look at? 

Thanks for any help,
Janet
