Hey Mark.

Wanted to thank you again for your help and let you know that I finally got everything sorted out.

Not sure if this is a 'bug', but the order of the shading domains does seem to matter, even though logic would suggest that Carrara would use the names of shading domains as opposed to the order they show up.

By the way . . . any chance of you making an intermediate-advanced set of tutorials for VTC.com or Lynda.com (maybe with the release of Carrara 8)?    I think I've got many of the basics down, but I'd sure love a boost to the next level. :-)
