Hi all, I asked about methods to carve letters in stone a couple of weeks ago and received some good ideas. The best was from Antoine Clappier (via ChrisIrwin). The problem I have is that for some reason it seems to compound the text outlines in an arc when seen from above. As a result, you can see through the letters directly in front of you, but the further from center they are, the less visable. If I leave the camera were it is and pan to the left or right so that I am looking at the outer letters, they look fine, and the middle ones are messed up. I thought it might be something with the camera, so I tried backing that up and zooming it in, but it made no difference. I put a flat cube inside of the object to control the depth of the letters (since compounding goes all the way through.) I changed it's color to Purple just to make it easier to see the letters. I was going to attach the file to see if someone could look at it, but I can't figure out how to attach a .car file. I tried putting on my Web server, but when you go to the URL, it gives you the text for the .car file. Any ideas? Thanks, MarkV
