Oh THANK YOU! That was it! I dont remember seeing that in the tutorials
that I was going through, but that was it. Thank you so much.
OK, now that Ive got that part down, my next question has to do with
creating and rendering stickers. How can you create a sticker to put on
bricks? Is there a way you can just map the image on the brick in POV?

Hi,
With reference to stickers, if you have Linux or Unix or feel up for a
challenge, you can use my img2sticker program as mentioned here
http://news.lugnet.com/cad/?n=13017. There is also an older program called
bmp2dat (I think) which a search on the LDraw site should turn up. If you have
a little patience, I am probably within a week of finishing a more up to date
and versatile version of img2sticker but I wouldnt hold me to it.
Another way is to insert an extra .ldr file to your .mpd consisting of just one
quad of the dimensions you would like your sticker to have. You can then edit
the .pov file and put an imagemap of the sticker over the top of the quad. Not
the easiest of solutions but it should work.
Hope this helps.
Yours,
Tim
