I am not sure if this belonged in site check…because it is not really a site yet. But here it is [www.implod.com/clients/harbor/layout05a.jpg](http://www.implod.com/clients/harbor/layout05a.jpg) Let me know what you think. The client wanted something simple that used their logo in the nav but subtly. I am stuck on the header. My ideas ran out. So any of those appreciated too. I know it is simple but hey. It is in its very initial stage ---

I hate these kind of requests… These are the types of sites where I sit in front of the monitor for hours, hoping something cool will just appear in front of me… Sorry I don’t have any insights, but I wanted you to know I was trying… You aren’t alone… Rev ![](http://www.aulman.com/rev.gif) ---

Dynamic as in database driven all the information will pulled from a database and XML…Makes it easier to do updates. ---

It says “Taking Form” and what i ment was, i just like draw anyting, then like if i go to render, it disapers, do like i have to make a base and sides and stuff then like fill it with material…? ---

Yes you have to have a scene objects…like light. if it is just black you probably do not have a light source. I think default wise 3ds give an object a color texture so you should atr least see that. Also a good idea is to apply a material…Also check your render options. Make sure you raytrace and all the goodies on. ---

well see, while you replyed i fooled around, i enclosed it, added a material. but it still is blank…i think i need a way to add a fill, i asked dan who used to work with max but he didnt know…so i guess i will try different render options. thanks for the help, if this doesnt work, time to search google:bad: ---
