nurbs-insert isoparm

Hey all-
I'm trying to follow the Organic Modeling 1 vid from Gnomon and am having some trouble about half way through. We are basically working on building a head with NURBS. We have the two image planes and started the process by making a NURBS cylinder. The cylinder was then adapted through the makeNurbsCylinder to 180 degrees (like a shield) and rotated so the open end of the shield was facing in. We then moved and scaled Hulls to shape the head some (only 4x4 divisions...so its just a basic shape).
So we are now ready to Insert Isoparms. I think I'm understanding it correctly (and I am seeing the dotted line after I drag in between to existing Isoparms), but when I go to the dialog box for Insert Isoparms, Reset settings, and then select Between Selections I'm getting an error:
"Error:Insert:failed on the input surfaces."
I don't know what I'm doing wrong...can anyone help?


just trying to pick a few things up
