You will also need 3DXchange to bring the obj into iClone ;) WORKED LIKE A CHARM! Somehow, I thought this was harder... lol! Mark - yer a genius - This is yet another hologram projector sequence for a 26" machine. Below is the result. Holograms are just about all I do now, so the logo to 3D is a big one. Thanks for this, I would have saved myself time & brain-bleed if I'd have asked sooner. This took me only minutes from .PNG to .iProp MEGA THANKS!!! ~V~ Val RogueAnanda 68% of original size (was 741x21) - Click to enlarge

I really am grateful for your help here, & you're a good 'neighbor' (if you count Palm Beach a neighbor) Thanks again Mike ~V~ Val RogueAnanda 68% of original size (was 741x21) - Click to enlarge

If you have CS6 extended on up you can create a nice 3d object from a .png with it.I did this rough test just the other day with this guy's signature, made a .png in Photoshop then converted it to an .obj, then brought it into iC7 WOW! damn cool, Really nice work - This will have to be the way to go, just need to get in there and figure it out now. I need to be able to see all sides of the .obj/iProp ~V~ Val RogueAnanda 68% of original size (was 741x21) - Click to enlarge

Thanks to Mike, Steve, Rampa & Dennis - I Mayhaps should have been a bit more specific! The end result of what I need to achieve would be to have the original PNG transformed into a 3D prop such as the one displayed here. Sorry for the confusion friends ~V~ Val RogueAnanda 68% of original size (was 741x21) - Click to enlarge
