Thanks, Petey.
LBD, I thought you’d appreciate all the SU work. Funny thing: I probably spent more time learning how to do billboarding in SU to make the plants look halfway decent than I did modeling the shelf variations. (For those who don’t know, billboarding is an old computer graphics trick for creating pseudo-3D objects. In this case, each plant is an a GIF image with a transparent background stuck on a pair of rectangles that intersect at right angles in the center. The rectangle outlines are turned off. From above, each plant looks like a cross. From most other angles, they look sort of like plants.)
