I might be mistaken but I think your problem is that you need to explicitly use UVs in VOPs. The Global S and T are not the UVs from a UVProject SOP.

I could be wrong, but try adding this:

wohoo that actually worked! thank you Photex

Hey could you explain why?

What exactly did the shadinglayer VOP do?

When you have UV values they are stored as attributes just like everything else, but you have to use the shading layer parameter vop in order to access them. The globals 's' and 't' would at first seem to be whatever the UV value is for that shading point, but they are actually something else (are they barycentric coordinates??). If you were shading a NURBs surface, then 's' and 't' would work more like you'd expect.

So anyway, if you don't wire the shading layer parameter vop to a texture vops s and t plugs you'll by default use the global s and t variables instead of the UV coordinates.

Somebody bail me out here!
