Ok, so the gradient map didn't appear below my post it appeared above it...Yeah, right, whatever... My map is 1000x1000 @ 1200 pixels/inch. The one above is 1000x1000 but internet images usually display at 72 dpi. Not sure how dpi translates to ppi but it shouldn't have any noticable effects on the displacement. But here (Above, below...somewhere) is the resulting render with the map above applied with a positive displacement of .5 This I can live with. :)
