Hey masterbooda! Thanks for the comments! You "da" man! :) SDW, "Couldn't you use DirectDraw and a few DLLs instead of using D3D?" Yes and no. Direct Draw (Dx7) does have alpha, rotation support via the .bltfx command, but it is highly unsupported by the majority of graphics cards. And yes you could code similar effects via software routines coded in C or assembly and accessed via a dll. "You should do a port to C/C++ thats vb friendly." On the task list... ;)
