qjig YaBB Newbies Offline Posts: 1	overlaying a pattern over a shape Apr 10th, 2008, 5:50pm   i was wondering if anyone could help me out.  I want to use a complex shape as a mask, such that an image with a pattern on it can be overlaid upon the image and act almost like the skin of the image.  What would be the simplest way of doing this? Thanks peeps.
