	Actually, it all depends on where it starts to go through
directories. In other words, look at the top directory/path bar. If
you click into the 'Textures' directory and it is the only directory
present in the path bar/indicator, then you can only parent to
'Textures', or the first directory in the bar. For example, click on
'Disks' at the bottom of the requester. Select the drive Imagine is
located in and start going through directories until you hit
'Textures'. When you parent out this time it will parent all the way
to the top directory.
	Of course, this may not be eactly what you're talking about...

	I know that as a default my version of Imagine2.0 started the
directory selection in the the directory that contained the Imagine2.0
application binary. My version of 3.0 starts the directory selection
at the top or root directory of the HD Imagine3.0 is located on...
