- Textures were quite a mystery to me and the manual isn't a lot of help.
- These are a few of the ones I came up this this weekend. I hope they will
- be a help to others.
-
- The colors are 24bit brushes put them in you toaster/3D/Images dir. These
- will give the reflective surfaces needed for the bells. They were created
- with foil and by changing the color controls of the video camera that I
- have. You should be able to the same with gels or colored foil. I used
- brushes in this file because their filesize is a lot smaller. The full
- toasterpaint image in most cases gives a better color.
-
- Load the Metalic_Bell and Metalic_clapper and then select load Images and
- load the different colors. The defualt image for both bells is Chr0me. You
- can create the different metalics by changing the image in the surfaces
- menu.
-
- To have more than one different color bell you will have to select the image
- and then rename the surface and save the object with a different name.
-
- The glass bell and lightbulb need to have another object behind them to be
- effective.
-
- Changing the reflected image color of the glass bell will change the color
- of the glass. Also changing the RGB sliders of the surface color (experiment
- and see what you can come up with.

- Good Luck Steve Nevins
