Neither are really a viable option for me- I'm using Pov to take in models
and textures made with a 3D program and do batch rendering.  I'm not hand
modeling the geometry, or doing much "custom" work per object- this is
straight model + texture here, no fancy intersections, etc.  The model and
texture need to remain as is.  So, back to my question- how do I use the
image map texture to modulate the diffuse color?
