Hey Kirupa guys,

OK I have a simple button im working on, I have some text over a background scheme of a globe, and what I want to do is when someone rolls over the text, the background morphs into a lighter globe, now I havent just changed the brightness on one image, I have 2 sperate images, one dark globe one light… should I use a shape morph? or is there an easier way? thx guys

- John
