Did you make a custom graphic and insert it (in which case you might want to send that custom graphic to the Louvre so that we all can use it), or did you do some sort of black magic to get this to happen some other way (in which case I want to know what you did)? -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.
