How to make IFL's Tutorial

It's been a while since I've posted a blog, but that's becouse I've been going bald....errr, I mean learning torque. One of the things I tried to do, was to make an IFL sign board. Something simple, not too many images, just a board with a few pics cycling across. I also wanted to use an IFL to make a water pond for a demo I was making, as it gave me total control of it's shape. I quickly found the tutorials on how to make IFL's lacking. I struggled, bought content packs, read all 3 of the books I have, tdn, forum posts, asked questions.....finally.....after much hair pulling, I was able to figure out the blanks to pull it all together and make it work. After making several sucessfull IFL objects, I decided to help others by telling them All the secrets. I made a tutorial using Milkshape and it's dts_plus exporter, (cause that's what I use) but you can use any modelor you wish and the tutorial still applies.
