Hello,

I've been raytracing about 3 months and have been polishing my skills
with CSG construction.
What I'm trying to do is to place a label on my povray beer bottle...the
main body of the bottle is a cylinder so I tried using the image_map
command with map_type set to 2 (for cylinder mapping) and the once
option. I got the image to map onto the cylinder, but it stretched the
label all the way around ...so then i tried scaling the x-coordinate of
the image with no luck....so now I'm looking into creating my cylinder
with a lathe object to see if handles this situation differently..
If anyone has any suggestions as how I might get label to map properly
please let me know.

Best Regards,

Ron Hicks
