One thing I just thought of though... the sticker isn't rectangular, it
actually would be an ellipse... does that make a difference?

You can make the portion outside of the ellipse transparent by defining
which color index should be transparent (in the POV image map declaration),
or you can change the "clipped_by" to a cylinder instead of a box (might be
easier/more versatile).

Cool. I will have to hack.

I got the rectangular version to work! Axel's post and your hints did the
trick. The sticker is scaled a bit smaller than it actually will be or else
the rectanglue would go off the edge, but it looks great in the render!

Thanks!!!
