Curious, I gave it a try in photoshop. I think you have to line up the doorways & windows to see the effect. I see someone who looks kinda like they're holding a baby, but I don't know what a Templar knight is supposed to look like, so I'm not sure if I saw that or not. --bb On 7/29/07, Darren D

"Cheat commandos, Rock rock on." Sounds great. This is sorely needed in matplotlib I think. But I have no idea how to make it work. Mayavi is way to huge for the kind of simple 3D plotting needs most folks have. --bb On 7/7/07, Nicolas Rougier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi all, I've been
