Subject: Attributes and the GROW Effect

  Okay, here's the skinny: 
	I made a rectangle which had its top portion coloured dark brown
	and it's bottom portion coloured a lighter brown.
     It also had the Linear Texture applied.  The end result would give me
     an extruded object which grow and then faded to full filter value
     close the the end of the effect.
	I grouped this fellow to a parent path and it extruded nicely over
	time in the Stage.
     The only problem was that the attributes of the extrusion were
     fudged-up somehow.  The linear fade at the end worked just fine, but
     my lighter brown seemed to assume the same dark brown intended for the
     'other parts'.  The 'other parts' assumed a red colour and a slight
     transparency.  I'm clueless. Any recommendations besides breaking down
     and giving in to the inevitable 3.0? (which I will as soon as funds
     are better, believe it!)  Perhaps having full (255) transparency in
     the Texture is mucking it up? No, I can't say, that's why I'm asking
     you folks.
