As in a texture on the object easier than drawing his own gradient. I don't use HWA so I wouldn't know how to use shaders, and I know nothing about how to use Overlay Redux. Sandwich Time!Whoo!

I've achieved a similar effect using an object as a shader, but it only adds colour to black objects. Until MMF gets masking capabilities I think you're stuck. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=j--8iXVv2_U On the sixth day God created Manchester "You gotta get that sand out your vaj!" x13 www.bossbaddie.com

You could of course try using the alpha channel object, I think it might be able to manipulate the alpha channel separately from the object. n/a
