I've got two projects (just for starters) that would use stone or brick on 
non-flat surfaces...

I was thinking a bitmap wrapped around a cylinder should work (with a little 
bump mapping) but both projects I have in mind are conical rather than 
cylindrical.

On the slanted surface of a cone the image should get stretched or squished 
right?

The current project would be painted brick (if I don't just go with a stucco 
surface), but the other project would be stone. I've seen a tutorial on the 
web for creating good looking stone textures, but I'm not sure how they would 
work for a slanted surface.

Along the same lines I also have a cone shaped roof that I would like to tile, 
but I may be changing the cone roof to a dome of glass, so that might not be 
an issue (but the other project it will be, so I still would like to know how 
to do that also).

Any help in pointing me in the right direction would be great....

Thanks in advance.
