This should hopefully reduce the overlap you are seeing in your current workaround, and it's probably still possible to implement this and delete the invisible walls from the centre of your chamber.</div>

<div class="PlainText">Hi Alistair -<br>
<br>
I am not sure I understand what you are suggesting. It sounds like the <br>
idea is to use something like GIMP to collect all of the sketches for <br>
the room into one JPG file, then use that file as the background for <br>
Therion.<br>
<br>
True?<br>
<br>
I considered that idea. There are two problems. First, I know almost <br>
nothing about GIMP. It would be a steep learning curve. Second, the <br>
sketches are not all the same scale. Some of them would have to be <br>
shrunk. Again a GIMP task, and beyond my knowledge of how GIMP works.<br>
