Your assistance will be appreciated.

I want to color an object with one color shading into another, gradient
style.  Any ideas on how I might do that?

Thanks,

    Sorry if this is an overly obvious answer but you could use the pigment

type gradient along with a color map. For examlpe to have a color that
goes from black to white with shades of gray in between you could try

pigment{
 gradient y
  color_map{[0 rgb 0][1 rgb 1]}}

If you needed something else be a little more specific and an answer
will be forthcoming.

Overly obvious or not, I didn't think of it.  Thanks for giving me something to
work with.  I'll try it for a while and see if suits my needs.
