thanks Rex, yup, i'm aware of that. when i said directioal, i meant. not quite like a lightspehere or something like that. i've seen some shots and by my standrads it looks diectional enough.
but i certainly do appreciate your comments.
BUT after defending myslef i'll follow your advise in conjunction with OldWolfs..
i want aware the covers could act in such a way.. so i'll be sure to get one wig a proper cover, and if its too scattered i'll throw on the lid and flip it around.
thanks oldwolf for that tip! great stuff.
ant thank you too Rex.
