I will link you as soon as I go over the tutorial again.LOL Sometimes being french and blond and cute is a plus,but other times ....those Brain Farts kick in. A pain in the butt at times! LOL...I just finally realized when in your tut you stated *Rounded Edge Gradient* I was thinking huh? Then I found what you meant! .LOL Okay finally got it....
