Jsprogg, thank you very much!! I think the learning is why I do this. I really do enjoy that! Wish I would have had this desire to learn as a young man!!

Dave, I don't know if I can change that line, but will try!!

Thanks, again, to you both for visiting my project and the help that you have been!!

HaHaHa!! Dave, coffee and a fag will put hair on your chest!! And I think I will have some myself since it is 4:30am!!!

Good morning everyone! I do hope that you have had a good weekend!

I really messed up the other day and have accidentally deleted the folder that I had this project in. I am really dissapointed in myself for such things. But I have the last render that I had posted here as an update, and will post it in Final. And the project would have just ended up on a storage drive anyway, but still frustrates me I did it!

Acid, you are really kind!! And I thank you! I would have given you the closeups you ask about, but can't now. You remember a year or more ago that they were going to post a warning about you!! ;-)

I want to thank everyone that has visited my project. I appreciate it so! And for the help that many have been. It would not have looked like this had you all not helped!! Thanks!!

Back to my coffee and smokes!!

Sorry to hear of you loss OHT.

I can feel your pain. I just recently lost over five years of work when a striped and MIRRORED disk appliance failed costly me to lose nearly a Terrebyte of data. :angery:
