In SuperBladePro, do this: 1. Save a 128x128 pixels version of your background image into a PICT file (on Macintosh) or BMP file (on Windows). 2. Within Super BladePro, click on the environment graphic, and use the file chooser to load in your small background image. 3. For a plain metal reflection, set the Reflection slider to 100 and Glassiness to zero. 4. For a glassier look, set the Reflection slider to about 80 and Glassiness to about 75, and the Caustic to about 50. Hint: the glass doesn't need to be clear. The glass color will be a blend of the underlying image and the lights' colors. 5. Play with the bevel shape and height, and the texture height, until the reflection is right.  more
