Softspot uses combinative waves to create smooth gradient spots and ramps that are blendable
and combinable with textures and colours. Both waves are configurable and fully animatable.

Makes some really nice material mixes and curved gradients. A darn good polka dot too :)

Controls:

	Textures	:	everybody knows how to use these...

	Ripples		: These are split into two : UX and VY
			UX: the horizontal wave, VY: the vertical wave.

			[.. Phase] - the position of the wave. Used primarily for animation.
			[.. Iterations] - the repetitions of the waves along the material.
					This sets how many spots will be gradiated. Lower
					values mean more waves.

Again, experimentation is good. Try mixing texture subs in with the colours for some smooth
material combines. Stick in a bit of noise and you've got a totally bizzare texture indeed!

Its freeware, hope you like it!
