I think we're both suffering from "brain seive" <bg>. You were involved with that thread. Bo Durban posted the code that I was referring to. Go back 3 days ago and look under the "Pictures and Image processing" for "Gradient colors" that was started by Ali Hoseiny on 2005/06/28.

You've probably investigated this stuff already though.

Mike
