I am not exactly sure how to explain what I am trying to do. I am, wanting to create a spotlight effect kind of like the Bat Signal. I am coding a screensaver for a local computer store to use on their display systems, I am wanting to display the contact info and etc. in the spotlight that is projected onto the side of a mountain.

I am always amazed that no matter how obscure of a problem you may run into, there always seems to be an example for it in the archives. I never would have thought to look there for a "bat signal" example, lol.

That is exactly the effect I was looking for, I can't believe I overlooked it this morning when I scanned thru the code archives before posting this request :)
